Our company faced a high-stakes breach of contract dispute with a former supplier that threatened significant financial and reputational damage. We engaged Myra Benjamin at Nixon Peabody, and her strategic approach was immediately evident. Drawing on her deep knowledge of commercial litigation, she meticulously deconstructed the opposing party's claims and built an unassailable defense. Myra’s guidance was not just legally sound but also commercially astute, always keeping our business objectives at the forefront. Her recognition by Best Lawyers in Commercial Litigation is well-deserved, reflecting the caliber of her work. The matter was resolved through a negotiated settlement that was exceptionally favorable to us, avoiding a costly and protracted trial. Myra’s professionalism, clear communication, and relentless dedication made an incredibly stressful situation manageable. I would not hesitate to recommend her to any business navigating complex legal challenges in the DC market.
