Vertical Consultants was established when our founder, Hugh Odom, saw an opportunity, while working as legal counsel for AT&T, to help underrepresented cell tower landlords receive fair treatment within their cell tower and rooftop leases. Founded in 2010, Vertical Consultants has catapulted to success by providing cell tower landlords vital information, decades of telecom experience and expertise, and results that positively affect the landowners’ bottom line. Vertical Consultants has already produced a commanding track record, serving as ‘property owner advocates’, narrowing the gap amongst telecoms and leaseholders. Vertical Consultants has secured tens of millions of dollars of additional value for leaseholders, with an average of 142% immediate increase in leaseholder rents in 2012 and overall lease terms that will allow our clients to share in their tenant’s future growth at the tower or rooftop site being leased. In addition, unlike other consulting firms, we also focus on getting our client’s a better overall lease. We believe that as important as it is to get the most out of your lease, it is also as important to limit what you are giving up to the telecom companies using your property.
