Wendi has served as my closest strategic advisor in a variety of incredibly complicated transactions and situations over the past two decades. Her ability to collapse complexity into simplicity and focus on what matters most from both a value creation and risk management perspective is second to none. I trust her inherently.

Wendi Lazar stands out among the top professionals I have worked with. Over a dozen years, we interacted on multiple engagements. She was consistently strategic in her approach, skillful in negotiations, and always obtained the best for me and the situation we were addressing. Nothing fell through the cracks, and she ensured that I was well-prepared for negotiations and trade-offs. She is a consummate professional, articulate and sympathetic, and unambiguously firm when she needs to be.

Wendi has been invaluable to our most senior clients in building strategies that maximize their value – both short-term and long-term. In addition to deep legal knowledge, she has 25 years of experience helping individuals with private capital transactions, equity plans, succession planning, and compensation – in PE and public companies. I can’t recommend Wendi more highly.

Working with Wendi is like flying first class - everything is a cut above and yet effortless. Wendi has unparalleled experience and a strategic mind that ensures she delivers the best results for her clients.

In the world of media and entertainment, where change is the only constant, Wendi has been my anchor. For the last 16 years, she’s been an incredible advisor, helping me navigate work in the C-suite, starting a new company, brokering across borders on complicated transactions, or focusing on what matters during negotiations with multiple paths of resistance. As a leader, I find it invaluable to have Wendi’s smart, strategic counsel. She’s always championed and empowered women, proving that we women should indeed have a seat at the Boardroom table.
