"We selected Osborne Clarke based on some personal recommendations, and we couldn't have been happier with our choice. They went above and beyond, working to crazy deadlines to make sure the process was on track, our interests were protected and that we understood the complexities of the transaction. I can't recommend Jon/"JC" and the rest of the team highly enough."
