Burr & Forman LLP is pleased to announce the addition of Chester “Chet” J. Hosch as an Atlanta-based Partner in the firm’s Corporate and Tax Practice Group.
Chet comes to Burr with extensive experience serving clients in the areas of mergers and acquisitions, corporate finance and taxation.
“The addition of Chet, like so many of our other recent hires, has been to solidify our corporate and tax capabilities in Atlanta, particularly to serve locally-based Fortune 500 companies,” said Erich Durlacher, managing partner of Burr’s Atlanta office. “Including highly-experienced attorneys like Chet on our team allows us to better serve these high-caliber clients, especially as Atlanta continues to grow as a hub for major corporate headquarters.”

His legal background includes assisting clients in material acquisitions and divestitures in a variety of industries and corporate, operational and tax restructurings.
