When our company faced a significant breach of contract with a former partner based in Germany, the situation was fraught with legal complexities spanning jurisdictions. We were referred to Thomas Hauss at McDermott Will & Schulte, and it was the best decision we could have made. Thomas's unique background, practicing law in Düsseldorf while being based in San Antonio, provided an invaluable dual perspective that was critical for our case. His five years of focused experience in litigation were immediately evident. He meticulously dissected the contractual language and the nuances of the dispute, explaining our position and the potential pathways with remarkable clarity. His recognition by Best Lawyers in Litigation, which we later learned about, was no surprise; his strategic approach was both sharp and pragmatic. Thomas managed communications with the opposing counsel with firm professionalism, never escalating unnecessarily but always protecting our interests. He guided us through a mediated settlement that not only recovered the substantial funds owed but also preserved critical business relationships. Throughout the entire process, he was exceptionally responsive and made us feel like a priority. For any business navigating tricky legal waters, especially with an international element, Thomas Hauss is an outstanding advocate.
