If I could leave 10 stars I would. Matt absolutely crushed it for my business acquisition. It was a long process, but I would have been unable to get it done without his guidance!

In 2020, I contacted Spadea Lignana to become the law firm for my company; it was the best decision I made. They have worked with us efficiently, thoroughly, and always in a friendly manner, no matter what I bring them. Their expertise is unmatched on so many levels. Meisee is a Paralegal extraordinaire. Her patience, communication, insight, efficiency, and sense of humor have often made my job easier. Spadea Lignana has attorneys who work with you. Evan is one of those attorneys. His responses to my questions are always answered with explanations that help our company make informed decisions. I appreciate his knowledge and guidance on many issues. My company is in Pittsburgh, and Spadea Lignana is in Philadelphia; working together distantly has never been an issue. I highly recommend this firm and am thankful for the almost five years of association with them.

Absolutely wonderful law firm. I own a Canadian business and am expanding our franchise into the USA. They made the process very clear from the beginning and have been incredibly helpful the entire way through. I feel so confident that we have the best legal team possible and I’m now very excited for our growth in the US. Thank you Spadea for all of your help in making this happen, and all of your continued support!
