A consummate professional who guided our complex acquisition flawlessly

Our company recently faced the daunting task of acquiring a key competitor, a process fraught with regulatory and financial complexities. We engaged Harris Siskind at McDermott Will & Schulte, and it was the best decision we could have made. With over three decades of experience, Harris brought a level of foresight and strategic acumen that was immediately apparent. His deep knowledge of private equity transactions and M&A, honed from leading the firm's global Transactions Practice Group, was invaluable. He didn't just review documents; he anticipated challenges we hadn't considered and structured the deal to protect our interests while ensuring a smooth closing. His recent recognition as Lawyer of the Year in Corporate and M&A Law is clearly well-deserved. Harris is exceptionally responsive, explains intricate legal concepts with clarity, and operates with a calm, commanding professionalism that instills total confidence. The transaction concluded successfully, exceeding our business objectives. For any significant corporate matter in Miami, Harris Siskind is the definitive choice.
