Jacalyn Smith at Nixon Peabody provided excellent counsel for my small healthcare technology startup in Chicago. We were navigating a complex contract with a larger hospital system, and her dual recognition in both corporate and health care law was immediately evident. She has a sharp analytical mind, likely honed during her graduate studies at DePaul, and was able to translate dense legal jargon into clear, actionable advice for our team. While her response time could occasionally be a day or two slower than I'd have preferred during particularly busy periods, the quality of her work never wavered. She meticulously reviewed every clause, identified potential risks we had missed, and negotiated terms that protected our intellectual property and future interests. For a relatively new attorney, her poise and strategic approach were impressive. I would confidently recommend her to any business in need of thoughtful legal guidance in the corporate or healthcare sectors.
