Christopher A. Deabler

Invaluable Guidance on a Complex Business Acquisition

Our company was navigating the intricate process of acquiring a smaller, family-owned competitor. While the deal seemed straightforward initially, the financial structuring and due diligence revealed significant complexities. We engaged Christopher Deabler at Taft's Covington office, and his counsel was nothing short of exceptional. His deep, practical knowledge in leveraged transactions was immediately apparent. He didn't just review documents; he explained the strategic implications of every clause, particularly around the debt financing and equity rollover, ensuring our leadership team fully understood the risks and opportunities. His recognition in Leveraged Buyouts and Private Equity Law by Best Lawyers is clearly well-earned. Christopher was proactive, anticipating issues we hadn't considered and crafting solutions that protected our interests while keeping the deal on track. His professionalism made a stressful process manageable. The transaction closed smoothly, and the structure he helped implement has positioned us perfectly for future growth. For any business facing a merger, acquisition, or complex financial deal in the region, I cannot recommend Christopher Deabler highly enough.
