I engaged Paul McCarthy at Rhoades McKee to assist with a contentious shareholder dispute that involved determining the fair market value of my minority interest in a family-owned manufacturing company. The situation was highly charged, and we needed someone with both legal acumen and financial expertise. Paul's 30+ years of experience and his background in finance and accounting were immediately evident. He meticulously explained the valuation methodologies and how they applied to our specific case, which was invaluable. His recognition in legal malpractice and litigation circles gave us great confidence in his strategic approach. Paul and his team crafted a compelling position that led to a favorable settlement without the need for protracted litigation. The only minor critique would be that during particularly busy periods, there could be a day's delay in email responses, though phone calls were always returned promptly. Overall, Paul McCarthy is a formidable attorney whose deep, specialized knowledge in business valuation is a tremendous asset for any client facing complex financial legal matters in West Michigan.
