Our small business faced a daunting compliance investigation from a state regulatory agency, a situation that threatened significant fines and operational disruption. We were referred to William Barbera at McDermott Will & Schulte. Despite his relatively short time in practice, his command of administrative law was immediately evident. He meticulously dissected the agency's claims, guided us through every procedural step with clarity, and crafted a strategic response that addressed both the legal technicalities and our practical business concerns. His recognition in Administrative/Regulatory Law by Best Lawyers was well-earned; he understood the nuances of the regulatory landscape in New York. The outcome was a complete dismissal of the major allegations and a favorable settlement on minor points. Mr. Barbera was not only exceptionally sharp and responsive but also genuinely invested in protecting our company's future. We felt confidently represented from start to finish.
