A Master Strategist for Complex Corporate Transactions

Our company faced a critical juncture: a potential acquisition that promised growth but carried significant structural and financial risk. We needed counsel who could see the entire chessboard, not just the next move. That’s when we engaged Dan Molhoek at Varnum. From our first meeting, his depth of experience—spanning nearly six decades—was evident. He didn't just review documents; he provided strategic clarity on the capitalization and governance implications that would affect us for years to come. His guidance on structuring the transaction was invaluable, ensuring our interests were protected while facilitating a smooth negotiation. It’s no surprise he’s been recognized as a leader in his field; his knowledge of corporate law and the intricacies of M&A is profound. Dan’s professionalism is matched by a genuine, personal commitment to his clients. He is a steady hand in complex situations, and the successful outcome of our acquisition is a direct result of his exceptional expertise. For any significant corporate matter in West Michigan, Dan is the definitive choice.
