"Dear Eric, I want to express my thanks and appreciation to you for your tremendous help in negotiating and completing the Copley Library sale. In my 31 years of La Jolla/San Diego real estate sales I have encountered too many attorneys who get lost in identifying problems, not solutions. With the buyers' four attorneys, and all the egos involved in our transaction, your calm, practical and experienced guidance was the glue that kept the transaction together, not only with your client but with everyone involved. Your years of development experience as a legal advisor and principal have clearly given you the unique tools to make complicated real estate transactions work. And I know that your reputation in the legal community was instrumental in keeping the opposing legal counsel on track while avoiding bluster and posturing. I look forward to working with you in the future."
