- 'The team at Cleary is excellent and have long been one of my preferred legal vendors. I have worked with the team for over 10 years at 5 different organizations across an array of transaction types where they have consistently delivered high-quality output/advice and been a key commercial component of helping get transactions over the line. Cleary's partners are particularly high touch and the smaller nature of the firm ensures that you get senior-level focus and access to expertise across verticals versus some of the larger institutions where smaller or midsized clients can get lost or neglected.'
- 'Most of our work has been with Joseph Lanzkron who is one of the top attorneys I have worked with in the space. Joe is highly responsive, commercial and an effective advocate for clients during transactions. Joe has a unique ability to make you feel like you are his only client and turn high quality output quickly and efficiently to keep transactions moving.'
