  • ‘I worked with them within the last year on a critical matter. They were excellent and I specifically want to call out Kevin Rinker, Jennifer Chu and Bill Regner on their proactive and solution-oriented advice that enabled us to navigate the legal risks of the deal while effectively advancing the businesses interests. They further maintained excellent communication, kept us well informed and were always available and proactive about huddling re: negotiation strategies/watch-outs. I appreciated the collaboration, sound guidance and their willingness to make themselves readily available.'
