As part of Barley Snyder’s Practice Excellence® process improvement initiative, the firm has developed a quality control program in the M&A area to achieve consistency and quality in its approach to M&A transactions. In terms of “practice style” in the M&A area, the firm prides itself on taking a reasonable, practical approach with the goal of closing the transaction. “While this type of individual designation is appreciated, this recognition really reflects the strength and depth of the entire Barley team in the M&A area,” commented Mattaini.
