He didn't just see the immediate conflict; he understood the long-term implications for our corporate structure and relationships. His strategic counsel from Pessin Katz Law led to a favorable settlement that protected our interests without destroying a key business partnership. His professionalism is matched only by his practical, grounded approach. We have complete confidence in his guidance for all our corporate and legal matters.
