Posted by Timothy | January 31, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Business

Top notch attorney! I had a very positive experience with her

I sold a my business to ServiceMaster International over 8 years ago. Marianne Ludlow was interviewed and hired as head of counsel to represent my business for this multimillion dollar transaction. She played a vital role in the negociation of the sales contract and editing the details of the agre...ement to make our overall transaction very successful. Even the opposing counsel on the ServiceMasters merger and acquisition team was so impressed they joked about hiring her afterwards. Not only did she finish ontime, i felt she went up and beyond her normal legal duties expected by me the client. She was extremely thorough and honest which is a rarity among the majority of attorneys today. Her rate was very reasonable and she kept things together and amicable when tensions became rather high at the very end of the merger. She pushed things forward and we managanged to have a very smooth mergers and closing. I was paid in full thanks to her experience in contractually protecting me as the client. Ive been doing business for many years and hired many attorneys and I can say with complete confidence that was one of highest returns on investment I've experienced. I wouldn't hesitate to highly recommend Marianne Ludlow to anyone who is looking to get things done professionally with correctness, while remaining on the winning team. After all, believe it or not, there are still good and reliable attorneys out there who still will put their clients first. This being said, congratulations on another job well done! Thanks again for your help Marianne. Best Regards, Tim

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
