We engaged Shimon Merkel at Heuking to navigate a complex Series A funding round with investors from both New York and Berlin. His dual recognition in Corporate and Venture Capital Law was immediately evident. He provided exceptionally clear, strategic advice on the term sheet and shareholder agreements, and his understanding of both German and U.S. business practices was invaluable for our cross-border operation. While his billing was transparent and fair for the expertise delivered, initial email responses during the very early stages could occasionally take a day. That minor point aside, Shimon's guidance was precise and commercially savvy. He expertly steered us to a successful close, protecting our interests while maintaining positive investor relations. We highly recommend him for venture capital matters.
