When our company was acquiring a manufacturing facility in Central Ohio, we faced significant environmental due diligence hurdles that threatened the entire transaction. The previous owners had left behind compliance issues that were not immediately apparent. We were referred to James Kezele at KMK, and his involvement was pivotal. James immediately demonstrated a command of both the intricate Ohio environmental regulations and the practical realities of real estate transactions, a dual expertise his recent recognitions clearly reflect. He didn't just identify the problems; he crafted a pragmatic, phased solution that involved negotiating with the sellers, coordinating with state agencies, and structuring the purchase agreement to protect our interests. His calm, methodical approach from his Claremont McKenna and University of Dayton training was evident throughout. James turned a potential deal-breaker into a manageable process, securing the necessary approvals and safeguards so we could close with confidence. He is more than an attorney; he is a strategic partner who understands that legal advice must serve the broader business objective. For any matter touching environmental law or its intersection with real estate in Ohio, I cannot recommend James Kezele highly enough.
