Our mid-sized tech firm was navigating its first international acquisition, a complex deal involving a target company based in Munich. While our primary counsel was in Charlotte, we needed specific, on-the-ground expertise in German private equity and corporate law. Thomas Diekmann at McDermott Will & Schulte was recommended to us, and his involvement was instrumental to our success. Despite his relatively few years in practice, Thomas demonstrated a command of the nuanced regulatory and transactional landscape that belied his experience level. His dual perspective, understanding both our American corporate objectives and the strict requirements of the German market, was invaluable. He meticulously guided us through due diligence, identifying several critical local compliance issues that others had missed. His recent recognition in Private Equity Law by Best Lawyers was clearly well-earned, as his strategic advice on structuring the investment was both creative and airtight. Thomas was consistently responsive, translating complex legal concepts into clear, actionable business advice. The deal closed smoothly and on schedule, largely due to his diligent and proactive approach. For any company considering private equity transactions with a German nexus, Thomas is an outstanding resource.
