Recognized in Ones to Watch since 2023
Timothy Lee
Jim Gianfagna has been an invaluable partner to our tech startup over the last three years. His dual expertise in corporate law and real estate was exactly what we needed as we navigated a Series B funding round while simultaneously negotiating a complex lease for our new headquarters. His background advising emerging technology companies was evident from our first meeting; he understood our unique pressures and structured the deal terms to protect our long-term interests. While his billing rates reflect his experience and the firm's standing, and there were occasional delays in email responses during particularly busy periods, the strategic guidance was always worth it. His recognition in Mergers and Acquisitions Law is well-deserved. Jim doesn't just execute documents; he provides clear, business-minded counsel that helped us avoid pitfalls we didn't even see. We feel well-represented and confident with him and Hahn Loeser in our corner.
