I engaged Lawrence Gerschwer and his team at Barnes & Thornburg after receiving a Wells Notice from the SEC related to disclosures my company made. The situation was incredibly stressful, and I needed counsel who understood both the intricate legal landscape and the high-stakes business implications. Mr. Gerschwer’s background in securities litigation and his recognition in that practice area were immediately apparent. He provided a clear, strategic roadmap, breaking down the SEC’s complex arguments and guiding us through every step of the response process. His experience from Columbia Law and his focus on white-collar defense gave us confidence that he could handle the regulatory pressure. Ultimately, his diligent work was instrumental in helping us avoid an enforcement action, which was a tremendous relief. The only minor critique I have is that during the initial, most frantic period, there were a couple of instances where follow-up emails took a bit longer than expected to receive a reply, though his associates were always available. Overall, I found Mr. Gerschwer to be a sharp, effective attorney who delivers results. I would not hesitate to recommend him for sophisticated securities or white-collar defense matters.
