William Green
Our company faced a bet-the-company lawsuit from a former joint venture partner, alleging breach of contract and seeking damages that threatened our operational viability. The complexity and sheer pressure of the situation demanded not just a lawyer, but a true strategic partner. We were referred to Sophie Melchers at Norton Rose Fulbright, and it was the best decision we could have made. Sophie’s deep, 15-year focus on Corporate and Commercial Litigation was immediately evident. She didn't just react to the claims; she conducted a forensic analysis of our entire partnership history, identifying weaknesses in the plaintiff's position we hadn't considered. Her guidance was calm, clear, and always framed within our broader business objectives, not just legal tactics. While her recent 'Lawyer of the Year' recognition in Montréal speaks volumes, her effectiveness for us in New York was grounded in meticulous preparation and an unwavering command of complex commercial law. Sophie and her team crafted a defense that forced the other side to the table, resulting in a highly favorable settlement that preserved our company's future. Her professionalism, expertise, and genuine dedication to our success were exceptional. For any U.S. client navigating high-stakes commercial disputes, Sophie Melchers is an invaluable asset.
