I need to say that this lawyer exceeded my expectations. I am in a very challenging industry-the movie business. I needed a lawyer to organize me legally and set my priorities straight. Linda Corwin delved right in at my request. She was able to negotiate several of my expiring contracts for way more than I expected. She does her homework too. During the discussions regarding these contracts she was able to argue market share enhancement and several other concepts which led me to get way more favorable contracts. Interestingly she was able to talk me out of pursuing a couple of litigation possibilities by explaining the weakness and strength of my cases. Then she explained the remoteness of the possibility that I could recover enough to make my time and legal fees worthwhile. Glad she had my best interests at heart.

My brother-in-law recommended Ms. Corwin to me to handle the liquidation of several business partnerships which each had at lease 20 partners. Millions of dollars of equity was at stake. Honestly several of the other attorneys involved were downright nasty and couldn't converse without shouting. Ms. Corwin handled the meetings, emails, and demands very well. She was able to rise above the craziness and achieve my goals. I asked her how she could stay focused and above the craziness. She told me that I was her client and she owed me her best efforts. She explained her duty to me included not letting herself get distracted by discussions which wouldn't lead to a productive resolution. Glad I found her.

If an Attorney can't figure out how to communicate with people and sell her point of view who needs them? My business is an international one. We deal with Japan, Poland , and various other countries. I needed an attorney who could be culturally sensitive and effective in negotiating contracts with business in foreign countries. Linda Corwin is excellent at this. She works hard, and listens to what others say. I am not a naturally good listener but am learning by observing her using her listening skills. Her legal fees are very fair. She seems to spend almost no time to achieve great results in my favor.

Ms. Corwin was recommended to me by a friend who is a major figure in the entertainment industry. I retained her to negotiate several complex contracts with a television producer. She explained everything clearly and concisely to me in language that I could understand. Her fortitude and tolerance for dealing with the worst type of stubborn people is to be commended. She got me much more than I expected.

Flat out, until my experience with Linda Corwin all of my experiences with lawyers were very negative. She treated me nicely and fairly. However she didn't hesitate to encourage me to change my goal because she felt that it would cost too much to achieve it. Yet, when I persisted she did as I requested and for much less money that I was wiling to spend. Actually I interviewed several lawyers for my project which consisted of forming a partnership out of several existing partnerships. Until the clock started ticking time wise the other attorneys just wanted to give me the boot. Linda Corwin actually made some good suggestions in the initial meeting and surprised me by saying that she enjoyed meeting me and she seemed like she meant it. All in all, I highly recommend Linda Corwin.

We are a group of personal injury attorneys who needed a lawyer to draw up a partnership agreement, negotiate and review our leases and negotiate with our landlord for a rent reduction to help us through a rough patch. Ms. Corwin accommodated our busy schedules so she could meet consistently with all of us. Not easy to get all of the partners (all aggressive litigation attorneys) to agree on anything. She had the ability to get us to realize goals in the order of importance and guide us toward achieving the important goals. Not easy for us to give up trying to control each other, or her. She taught us how to better evaluate business decisions and how to negotiate to come to agreement instead of negotiating to crush others.

A group of businesses including mine consulted Ms. Corwin about some very difficult business issues regarding a big competitor which was trying to put us out of business. Ms Corwin was able to represent our group being fair and responsive to all of us. She managed to negotiate a contract which allowed all of us to peacefully coexist and continue in business. Her cleverness allowed her to make some suggestions to guide our group in purchasing inventory and supplies at a group discount which lowered our cost of doing business. She also made suggestions as how to share some big expenses pro rata among ourselves . With Ms. Corwin's legal and business help we were able to cut our costs and compete very effectively against this competitor. So we are ALL still in business and doing well. Interestingly, we all are becoming good friends in our group and brainstorming to improve all of our businesses.

Consult Ms. Corwin if you want a truly realistic evaluation of your legal issues. 3 lawyers I saw before her urged me to sue my former partners and almost guaranteed I would get a judgement in my favor. Ms. Corwin took the time to read my partnership agreement and saw that I was actually in breach and would lose any litigation. She stressed that she hasn't been a litigation attorney for 20 years.. She really does know her business law. She avoided huge expenses to me and negotiated a meeting between all of the partners, former and current. Her knowledge of business paid off-she is also a certified public accountant, We ended up dissolving the partnership as friends. And after all was settled the former partners and myself entered into another partnership and are doing really well personally and financially. So nice to meet a lawyer who has her clients' best interests at heart and who isn't just trying to get everything stirred up to make money for herself!
