Bruce is excellent; he is very technical and strong on the law. He sees the strategic angle and is extremely commercial when he needs to be.
When Bruce joins the negotiation table, he strikes the right tone between constructiveness but also aggressiveness. He is usually the smartest guy in the room, so is great to have on your side.
