Our company, based in New York, was navigating the acquisition of a mid-sized manufacturing firm in Stuttgart. The complexities of German corporate law, combined with the international dimension, were daunting. We were referred to Cornelius Haffa at Haver & Mailänder, and it proved to be an invaluable connection. Despite his recognition in Mergers and Acquisitions Law by Best Lawyers being a forward-looking accolade, Mr. Haffa's foundational knowledge and strategic approach were immediately apparent. He possesses a remarkable grasp of the intricate details that govern M&A transactions in the German market. His ability to explain the nuances of German corporate structures and regulatory requirements in clear, actionable terms was exceptional. Throughout the due diligence and negotiation phases, his professionalism was unwavering. He anticipated potential hurdles related to employee representation laws and local compliance issues that our U.S. counsel had not fully considered, saving us significant future liability. The deal closed smoothly and on schedule, a direct result of his meticulous preparation and calm, focused demeanor. For any business engaging in transatlantic dealings, especially involving German entities, Cornelius Haffa provides a level of sophisticated, locally-grounded counsel that is truly indispensable.
