Guys: I don't do this very often, but I would like to personally attest to Bingham's capabilities in the area of telecom law and M&A experience, and that of Andy Lipman in particular. He is a consummate professional with tremendous reach and expertise within the industry. And he is supported by a large team of capable attorneys.
When we needed help over the last 20 years, Andy and his firm are where the companies that I have been associated with have turned to. Welcome Andy...your contribution on some key issues you will find in the list serv could be invaluable. And hopefully you will find some new business opportunities along the way.
