Our Team

Meet the professionals bringing clarity to precious-metal transactions.

Andrew Tawil
Principal and Founder

Andrew Tawil

Andrew brings a rare combination of legal, transactional, and industry-specific experience to ClearMelt Advisors.

He spent six years practicing as an M&A attorney, advising on complex corporate transactions that required disciplined analysis, negotiation, and advocacy under high-stakes conditions. This foundation sharpened a practical, detail-oriented approach to evaluating risk, structure, and value.

Following his legal career, Andrew served as Chief Operating Officer of one of Texas's largest privately owned bullion dealers, where he operated inside the precious-metals market at scale. In that role, he negotiated and structured transactions involving bullion, coins, and mixed collections, gaining firsthand insight into dealer pricing, market dynamics, and negotiation leverage.

Today, he brings this combined legal and industry experience to the public, providing independent pricing analysis and informed advocacy to help clients navigate precious-metal transactions with clarity and confidence.
