  • ‘Brian Tiemann is beyond critical for his historical knowledge of our plans due to the multitude of M&A activity that has occurred over the past couple decades. When legal opinions/recommendations are requested, his write ups are always comprehensive and provide purposeful explanations. He is also invaluable in providing support with difficult inquiries that myself and my team deal with on a fairly regular basis. ’
