Our company was navigating a complex commercial loan restructuring with multiple institutional lenders, a situation that felt overwhelming. From our first consultation, James Harris demonstrated why he has nearly three decades of experience. His deep knowledge of banking and finance law, honed right here in Nashville, was immediately evident. He didn't just recite statutes; he provided a clear, strategic roadmap that addressed both the immediate financial pressures and our long-term corporate health. James's recognition by Best Lawyers in Banking and Finance Law is well-deserved—his drafting was meticulous, his negotiations were firm yet pragmatic, and he anticipated challenges we hadn't even considered. The entire process at Holland & Knight was seamless, and the outcome preserved our key banking relationships while achieving the restructuring terms we needed. For any business facing sophisticated financial legal matters, James Harris is the attorney you want in your corner.
