About
Prior to relocating to New York, I practiced as an associate at Alston & Bird in Washington D.C. where I specialized in private equity transactions and served as the primary associate contact for a number of clients. In addition to advising private equity sponsors on mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, joint ventures and general corporate matters, I also represented their portfolio companies on various corporate matters.

Client Reviews
"Walt and I have been working together since the Fall of 2017. Walt has performed various council functions throughout the past two years from both a personal and corporate stand point. Most recently Walt advised me on the formation of a new venture we launched a few months ago and help prepare us for an equity raise. In this capacity, Walt reviewed our operating agreement, member services agreements, and term sheets and led us through multiple rounds of comments and redline edits."
"Walt is a hard worker and has always been available when I need him. He is very responsive even late at night and on weekends Walt has been very thorough and in multiple instances has offered creative ideas worth exploring that I had not considered."
