Expert Guidance Through a Complex M&A Transaction

Our company recently faced the daunting task of acquiring a key competitor, a process fraught with intricate due diligence and complex negotiations. We engaged Chat Ortved at Lawson Lundell LLP based on his specific recognition in Mergers and Acquisitions Law. From our initial consultation in his Boston office, Chat demonstrated a command of the corporate governance and transactional details that was immediately reassuring. Despite his relatively few years in practice, his strategic approach felt seasoned and precise. He meticulously guided us through every stage, from structuring the initial offer to navigating the final regulatory hurdles, always explaining our options with clarity but without oversimplifying the stakes. What stood out was his proactive communication; he anticipated potential deal-breaking issues weeks before they surfaced, allowing us to adjust our strategy seamlessly. The transaction closed successfully, and the final terms were exceptionally favorable, directly attributable to Chat’s skilled advocacy and diligent preparation. His recognition in both Corporate Law and M&A is clearly well-earned. For any business navigating a merger, acquisition, or significant corporate matter, I cannot recommend Chat Ortved more highly. He is a true asset to his firm and an outstanding legal professional.
