I engaged John Murphy at Reinhart Boerner Van Deuren to assist with a commercial real estate acquisition that involved a complex financing structure from a regional bank. His knowledge of banking and finance law, as you'd expect from an attorney recognized by Best Lawyers in that field, was evident. He efficiently navigated the loan covenants and the real estate due diligence, and the transaction closed successfully. However, my experience was a mixed bag. While the legal work was solid, I sometimes found communication to be less proactive than I would have preferred. There were periods where I had to follow up for updates, and responses, while thorough, weren't always as prompt as I needed during a fast-moving deal. For straightforward, high-stakes legal matters, John's 12 years of experience and firm resources are a definite asset. Just be prepared to manage the client-attorney communication flow a bit more actively than I anticipated.
