Consequently, our client had a temporary increase in M&A activity that required additional attorneys to oversee M&A due diligence, deal checklists, negotiations and overall M&A activity.
Major, Lindsey & Africa's Interim Legal Talent group brought its experience in providing solutions and consultation around business expansions – which includes the ebbs and flows of the legal workload that come with M&A.
