John Herrmann (Novavax)

Rockville, MD

Paul's advice is always, and at the same time, both legally expert and pragmatic - a blend that is rarely found and tremendously valuable to his in-house clients as they navigate both "day-to-day" and "bet-the-company" issues. His depth and range of expertise and judgment across a wide array of corporate legal issues from securities law to M&A to corporate governance is truly impressive, and his extensive experience in the life sciences industry and appreciation of its unique disclosure and transactional issues are highly valued.
