Stanley G. Stash Jacobs provided solid legal guidance for our startup's private equity transaction. His expertise in corporate law and securities was evident, and his 27 years of experience was reassuring. However, response times were sometimes delayed, and follow-up communication could have been more proactive. While his recognized accolades in mergers and acquisitions were valuable, I wish the onboarding and updates had been smoother. Overall, competent advice but room for better client service.

Stanley G. 'Stash' Jacobs is clearly a highly skilled attorney with a strong background in corporate and securities law, particularly in mergers and acquisitions. His experience and recognition in these areas are evident in the way he handles complex transactions. However, while his legal expertise is undeniable, his communication style can sometimes feel rushed or overly technical, making it difficult to fully grasp the nuances of the process. For example, during a private equity deal I was involved in, his deep knowledge of securities regulations was invaluable, but the delay in responding to follow-up questions left me feeling slightly in the dark at times. Overall, I would recommend him for his legal acumen, but clients should be prepared for a more transactional approach and may need to advocate for clearer timelines and explanations.
