A trusted advisor for our family business transition

Our family needed to navigate the complex process of transitioning ownership of our multi-generational manufacturing business. After consulting with several attorneys, we chose John Wynn at Lanier Ford Shaver & Payne, and it was the right decision. His 54 years of experience, particularly his deep knowledge in business organizations and corporate law, were immediately evident. He guided us through entity restructuring, buy-sell agreements, and integrated estate planning with a steady hand. It was clear why he's been recognized as Lawyer of the Year; his advice was both strategically sound and practically grounded. We felt completely secure with his counsel, which drew from his NYU LL.M. and decades of Huntsville-specific practice. The only minor critique, and the reason for four instead of five stars, is that his deep involvement with complex matters can sometimes lead to slight delays in email responses, as he is clearly in high demand. Overall, John provided exceptional value and peace of mind during a critical period for our family.
