Expert guidance on our corporate acquisition

R. Lee Discher provided exceptional counsel during our recent acquisition of a smaller tech firm. His dual background in management from Georgia Tech and his recognized expertise in corporate law were immediately apparent. He navigated complex financing structures and due diligence with impressive skill for his level of experience. The work product was flawless. While his response time could occasionally be slower during peak periods, the quality of his strategic advice was well worth it. We felt confident having a Kirkland & Ellis attorney with his specific recognition on our side.
