Vertical Consultants is a national advisory firm that represents property owners in cell tower and rooftop lease matters. Founded by Hugh Odom, a former AT&T attorney with more than 25 years of experience, the firm focuses on rent valuation, lease renegotiation, buyout analysis, and expense recovery, while operating independently from wireless carriers and tower companies. It relies on proprietary data and analytics, including 30- to 50-year financial modeling, and offers AI-powered insights to support valuations and negotiations. Its clients include municipalities, utilities, churches, schools, and private property owners, who typically achieve substantial rent increases and recover underpaid expenses through renegotiation. In 2019, the firm announced the addition of Brentwood Stor-N-Lok as a client, illustrating ongoing expansion.
