Thomas Green
Our company faced a significant challenge when a key commercial loan facility needed urgent restructuring. The complexity of the covenants and the pressure from our lending syndicate required an attorney with precise expertise. We were fortunate to engage Matthew Fontane at Holland & Knight. Despite his relatively short time in practice, his command of commercial finance law was immediately apparent. He possesses a depth of knowledge that clearly aligns with his recognition by Best Lawyers in Banking and Finance Law. Matthew meticulously dissected our loan agreements, identified several non-obvious leverage points, and crafted a strategic negotiation plan that went beyond simple legal advice. His professionalism in coordinating with our CFO and the bank's counsel was flawless. The result was a restructured agreement that not only met our immediate liquidity needs but also positioned us with more favorable terms for future growth. Matthew’s approach is both thorough and pragmatic; he translates complex legal concepts into clear business implications. For any Dallas-based business navigating commercial lending or financial agreements, I cannot recommend his services highly enough.
