In his role as outside general counsel, Mr. Lambert provides counsel on the broad range of legal subjects affecting business, including mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures and financings; antitrust and distribution law; banking and commercial finance; employment law; contracts; trademarks; and the negotiated resolution of business disputes.<\/p><p>[\/fusion_text][fusion_text]<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center; font-size: 40px; font-family: Garamond, serif; font-weight: 600;\"><em>Tes<\/em><em>timonials\u00a0<\/em><\/p><p>[\/fusion_text][fusion_text]<\/p><p style=\"text-align: center; font-size: 18px; font-family: Garamond, serif;\"><em>\u201cI am a small business owner of a closely held family business that was involved in a minority shareholder dispute. Frustrated and disgusted with how my case was being handled by two previous law firms for three years, I searched to find the law firm that specialized in my legal situation. After much research and many interviews later, I met with Richard Lambert of Dunn Lambert, LLC. In my initial consultation with Richard Lambert, my wife and I found Mr. Lambert extremely knowledgeable in the law, empathetic but emphatically honest in the merits of our case. Mr. Lambert set out the strategy that he thought we needed to take and he was confident that his firm had the right team of lawyers to represent our case. Dunn Lambert is comprised of many talented legal professionals. While this team of fine professionals provided the finest legal representation we could ever hope for, collectively their firm offered so much more\u2026 genuine support and encouragement, above and beyond other firms three times their size!
