We engaged Alyssa Milstead at Wilmer Hale to handle a complex breach of contract case for our San Diego-based tech startup. Despite being relatively new to the bar, her Harvard Law training and the firm's deep resources in commercial litigation were immediately apparent. She demonstrated a sharp analytical mind, breaking down the opposing party's financial misrepresentations with clear, strategic precision. Her recognition by Best Lawyers in this specific field gave us confidence in her focused expertise. Alyssa was personally invested, explaining each step thoroughly. The matter was resolved favorably. Our only slight critique would be that communication sometimes had brief delays, likely due to her demanding caseload. Overall, she is a formidable advocate we would recommend.
