Expert guidance for our family business succession plan

Josh Husbands at Holland & Knight provided exceptional counsel during a critical transition for our family-owned manufacturing company. His deep, 12-year focus on closely held businesses was immediately apparent. He didn't just draft documents; he facilitated difficult conversations between generations, ensuring our legacy and operational stability were preserved. His dual recognition as a 'Lawyer of the Year' in both business and estate planning proved invaluable, as he seamlessly integrated tax strategy with our personal goals. Josh is a true strategist who explains complex Oregon law with clarity. The process was thorough, and the outcome gives us immense confidence for the future. His professionalism and genuine care for our family's wellbeing made all the difference.
