Bill Zimmern was instrumental in guiding our company through a complex, multi-jurisdictional acquisition. His 22 years of experience, particularly his deep knowledge of financial sponsor transactions, provided a strategic edge. Bill’s advice was consistently practical and business-focused, cutting through legal complexities to keep the deal on track. His recognition in M&A law is well-deserved. Working with him and the team at Moore & Van Allen gave us immense confidence. The transaction closed smoothly, and the final structure has positioned us perfectly for future growth. I would not hesitate to recommend Bill for any significant corporate matter.
