Expert guidance through a complex union negotiation

Our company engaged Pat White at Varnum to guide us through a challenging union contract negotiation. His deep experience in labor law management, built over 20 years serving Michigan businesses, was immediately evident. He wasn't just a legal advisor; his background in education seemed to give him a unique perspective on communication and building a strategic framework. His recognition as a past 'Lawyer of the Year' in this field was well-earned. Pat provided clear, practical counsel that helped us reach a fair agreement while protecting our operational interests. The only minor critique would be that during peak periods, response times from his assistant could occasionally lag. Overall, he was an invaluable asset and we highly recommend his services for any labor management issue.
