Our company recently faced the daunting task of acquiring a German tech startup, a process fraught with regulatory and structural complexities. We engaged Dirk Besse at Morrison Foerster based on his deep recognition in Private Equity and Corporate Law. His 16 years of experience, including his acknowledged work in Capital Markets, were immediately evident. Dirk masterfully navigated the nuances of both U.S. and German deal frameworks, anticipating hurdles we never saw coming. His strategic advice was not just legally sound but commercially brilliant, directly contributing to a seamless closing. While his accolades, like the Lawyer of the Year award, speak volumes, it was his personal commitment to our success—his responsiveness and ability to explain dense concepts clearly—that truly set him apart. He is the definitive choice for sophisticated corporate transactions.
