Outstanding counsel for a complex commercial dispute

When our company faced a high-stakes commercial litigation matter with significant financial implications, we turned to Christopher Helt at Dentons. From our first consultation in his Kansas City office, it was clear we were in expert hands. Christopher’s deep knowledge of commercial litigation and banking and finance law, honed over his seven years of practice, was immediately evident. He meticulously deconstructed the opposing party's arguments and developed a compelling, multi-faceted strategy. His recognition by Best Lawyers in these precise areas was not just a credential—it reflected in the caliber of his work. Christopher guided us through every phase with clear communication, never resorting to unnecessary legalese. His preparation was exhaustive, and his advocacy in settlement negotiations was both strategic and forceful, ultimately securing a resolution that far exceeded our expectations. He is a consummate professional who combines sharp legal acumen with a genuine commitment to his client's success. I cannot recommend him highly enough for complex business disputes.
