We were referred to Lauren by a mortgage bank that we were talking with. She handled the whole process seamlessly and eased much of the pain of real estate purchasing. She's very attentive to details and very responsive as well. I highly recommend her and her firm.

Lauren made purchasing our first apartment in New York City seamless. She is experienced, knowledgeable and always kept our interests at the forefront throughout the process. She acted as both buyer and bank attorney on our purchase and successfully navigated through the additional complexities associated with an estate sale. Not once did we feel that closing our apartment was anything but her top priority and recommend her services.

We were first time buyers, lauren took us through the process attentively, carefully, generously (which considering we were pretty niave was a real blessing). She handled the affairs with zero fuss, replied to emails very promptly, we felt 100% looked after from start to finish. My wife and I felt in a very very secure set of hands, and at no point did my faith in her waiver. I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Working with Ethan was an absolute pleasure. He helped me file my trademark application very very quickly and explained everything throughout the process. He let me know exactly what to expect going forward in a way that was informative but not unnecessarily or overly technical. His combination of legal expertise and personality is a winning combination and I would work with him again on this type of project or any other legal matters without question.

Ethan was extraordinary to work with. Not only is he so knowledgeable of the law in this area, he kept us updated throughout the entire process. In the beginning, he did a great job of educating us on the law and procedure and put it all in terms we can easily understand. I would absolutely hire him again and have already recommended him to everyone I know who was in need of trademark work.

I have worked with Ethan on a variety of different projects so far and he is always excellent. He is extremely professional, yet down to earth, and always provides detailed information / advice in an easy to understand manner.
Most prominently, he is on the leading edge of social media related issues. I have consulted with him on a few occasions with regards to intellectual property specifically related to internet and social media usage. He has provided excellent, up to date information on how existing laws would translate within these new arenas.
Overall I am extremely satisfied and would recommend Ethan without reservation.

Vasilios has been outside general counsel for our national digital marketing agency for over a decade. The business has grown from 10 employees to over 70 in that time. Vasilios has helped us navigate contracts, technology, intellectual property, employment matters, and contract negotiations. As a trusted advisor, he understands our business, is very responsive, and saves us from making costly mistakes as we substantially grow our business. On top of that, his general business advice gives us the confidence we need to negotiate better contract terms. Thank you for the decade of trusted service, Vasilios.

After being heavily engaged with the Florida court system and dealing with multiple attorneys throughout the Tampa Bay area, I was made aware of Ms. Tuomey background. After consulting with her I decided it would be a good fit. I was right and my investment in her knowledge paid off exactly the way I felt it should. The problem in today's system is who to trust with your " legal dollars". This being said I now know after watching her navigate through complex issues on multiple govmt and legal levels that you would be wise to consult with her. I have wasted thousands upon thousands of dollars and countless hours trying to resolve a matter. Once I was able to sit with Ms. Tuomey and all the facts and circumstances were laid out , she was able to formulate an actionable plan that made perfect sense from complex issues.
You will be hard pressed to duplicate the understanding and knowledge that her firm has to offer without losing your shirt getting the run around from other attorneys, who do nothing but yes you to death. If you need a top notch attorney who is compassionate, understanding and unafraid to take on your legal matters.....then look no further.

I’ve never had the best of luck in hiring an attorney, but after meeting Debra, all that has changed.
When Debra accepts your case, she keeps you "in the loop" at all times. You're not left wondering, for weeks on end, "What is going on with my case?"
Debra is tenacious, resilient, and thoroughly prepared. When she steps to the podium, she commands the courtroom, making a client feel truly “represented.”
Our case has not even come to a close but I can honestly say, win or lose, Debra crossed every “t” dotted every “I” and left no stone unturned.
I would refer Debra’s services to anyone, in need of an attorney, who truly loves practicing law. She is first class…

When it comes down to brass tacks these days, everyone wants your money. The difference between lawyers is whom is actually going to put forth the effort to earn your hard earned money and trust. One thing that makes Ms. Tuomey a head above the rest, is the time it takes to listen and find the real issues to get to the bottom of your legal matters , quickly and efficiently. I personally have dealt with many attorneys throughout the Tampa Bay area. This being said, I know how difficult, it can be finding the attorney that will give you the time needed to seek out and understand the issues and how to go about solving them, correctly. I would highly recommend Debra, especially if you like to fight and win, if winning isnt your foremost interest then you have plenty of attorneys to choose from.

I hired Mike to work on some contracts and trademark issues for my rapidly growing business. He also worked on developing legal agreements for affiliate and business partner relationships. He always made himself available to us, whether via telephone or email, we felt like Mike was an extension of our organization. His work was top notch, and helped us through some very challenging issues and relationships. Our company continues to work with Mike because we have developed deep trust in him to handle the most complex issues and provide sound knowledge and advice as we grow our business. I found his fees to be very fair and reasonable when comparing to firms I have worked with in the past. In addition, comparing his attention to detail and overall quality of work to other firms - there is no question that Mike cares greatly about his reputation and his clients. I would highly recommend Mike - he has helped us tremendously.

I would highly recommend Mike Laszlo and his associates for legal services related to starting or protecting nearly any type of business. With Mike on our team I always have someone who I can reach at almost any hour, and who can explain complex issues and allow me to make informed decisions quickly.
I appreciate the culture of their small firm. They understand local small business in a way that, in my experience, larger firms do not. They are good people and have a genuine interest in helping us do good business.

I had a contract question to consult with a lawyer to see if it can be brought to court, so I came to Avvo to see if I can find a local lawyer who has practice in this area. I called Daniel Shafer and asked my question. He was very patient and lay down all possibilities he thought it could be. He suggested me to first work out other ways before bringing it to the court, and explained the reasons for each of the choices clearly. I'll try the other ways he suggested and if not working and need to go to court, I'll have him as my first choice of lawyer I'm going to hire.

Marc has been my attorney for a couple of years now and I can honestly say that he has exhibited the utmost professionalism in every aspect of his representation. Whether he's reviewing a contract or simply advising me on a certain course of action, Marc has continually provided excellent guidance and legal insight. Additionally, my specific needs have required an attorney who understands technology and all of the legal intricacies surrounding software and app development. Marc just doesn't talk-the-talk when it comes to that topic; he also walks-the-walk. He is very knowledgeable about all sorts of cutting edge technology which makes him perfect for helping people (and companies) who are within the tech space. Whether you're needing advice on what type of corporate entity you need to create, or want someone to review an employment contract, or have to setup an agreement related to software, Marc is your man. I highly recommend him. You won't be disappointed.

We have been represented by Reid Dammann for several years in various matters and have found him to be very knowledgeable with patents, trademarks and other intellectual property matters.
Reid has always been able to give us direct and effective advice and presented us with all options and alternative courses of action. This included advice on IP matters as well as prosecuting patents and trademark litigation. Reid has always gone that extra mile for us and has helped us out of some tight spots.
We are glad to be working with Reid and would recommend him to others without hesitation.

Our firm had just spent over $25,000 on creating a new services website. We were using a new trademark based on an e-commerce name we had been using for well over 20 years.
To our great surprise, we were slapped with a notice of litigation from a much, much larger online company that we were infringing on their web territory - that the names were "confusingly similar".
We were referred to Reid through one of our firm's members. Reid and I teleconferenced. As a start-up we had limited funds for expensive legal fees. Reid's wise counsel, hard-won through numerous follow-up calls and appropriate filing response timing, not only saved us tens of thousands of dollars in protracted litigation costs, which Reid and I both knew would quite legally and obviously, win us an eventual victory, but also resulted in a compromised settlement with the plaintiff that allowed us to be compensated more than adequately by the plaintiff to simply change our domain name and surrender our new trademark to them.
Although in theory, this settlement was less than palatable to us, his counsel was well timed and eminently practical.
Thank you Reid!

As the Founder & CEO of a mobile software company, intellectual property is of tantamount importance. It's the core foundation on which our entire business is built. Over the years we've filed numerous patents and trademarks, and our attorney of record has always been Reid Dammann. We respect and value Reid's contributions to our overall business strategy so much that we followed him when he recently moved to a different firm. In fact, the only reason we signed a retainer with his previous firm was because Reid was the partner managing our account. I would not hesitate a single second to recommend Reid. He is incredibly smart, a master of his craft and is a joy to work with. Reid always takes the extra effort to make sure we're happy as clients. If you're considering Reid as your attorney, don't even think twice. He's the man for you.

There are several lawyers who claim to specialize in vertical industries or segments of the law but few bring true passion to their specialty.

She is the consummate legal professional and brings passion to the work she does to elevate the cleantech industry. I'd recommend Estriatus Law without hesitation.

Attorney John Kakinuki tremendously helped me with my divorce proceedings. He said divorce wasn’t his specialty but mine was an international marriage and he is expert in international work and was recommended by mutual friends in our church, so he worked hard to make sure everything went right.
He provided me with excellent service. He gave me a lot of professional advised as to how and what I should expect from the court.
He is very very professional, very knowledgeable. I was so impressed by his work ethics. My case went quick and smoothly because he paid attention to all the details and paperwork’s required by the court.
Honestly at that time I don’t care about anything. Divorce was a nightmare for me. All I know is I just want it done and get over it. Even today when I should forget the proceedings. I still recall how Attorney John Kakinuki treated my case very well. He gained my respect and admiration because he was not only there to represent but he also gave me emotionally support and I felt it.
He is such a great lawyer with integrity and a big heart.
If you need legal advice or question I will definitely, highly recommend Attorney John Kakinuki and you will not regret it.

I was referred to John Kakinuki by a former colleague from the Baker & Mackenzie law firm. He was recommended as a professional with great integrity and an impressive history of experience in litigation and Intellectual Property both in the US and in Japan.
Even though my case was not related to intellectual property, John Kakinuki agreed to meet me and advise me about a case in Japan involving my family. From the very first meeting, I was impressed by his compassion and sense of justice as he provided me valuable advice at no charge.
Mr. Kakinuki demonstrated a profound knowledge of the Japanese justice system and Japanese lawyers' work ethics. He speaks with the confidence of many years of professional experience with litigation in Japan and in the US.
John Kakinuki reached out to his network of law professionals in Japan and procured a Japanese lawyer that spoke English and was willing to work for my family (who actually lives in Brazil). This was an enoumous help given the fact that the majority of Japanese lawyers will not work for foreigners. Mr. Kakinuki kindly initiated our first contact with the lawyer in Japan and helped us get started with our case.
I would highly recommend John Kakinuki as a lawyer. He is an impressive litigator who presents arguments and facts based on knowledge and experience when giving advice. I have great respect and admiration for his professionalism.

Had enrolled with a famous online site and was soon stuck with questions of what to do and how to do it. The result, a denial of the trademark. I met with Catherine. She was easy to talk to and to my relief, non judgmental on the errors of my ways. Catherine reworked the application and I soon had my Trademark.

Catherine did what a good lawyer is supposed to do. She anticipated what my needs were going to be and ensured I had protection I never dreamed I would want. Two years later my business has grown in ways I could not imagine, but whenever I start a new project and realize that is covered by my Trademark, I am thankful she took the time to really guide me through all the options and not just do the bare minimum I requested.

Adam is a helpful and genuine person who was really interested in me, my business, and how he could help me get my trademark. I tried to register the trademark myself, read the USPTO site guidelines and watched their videos... and I STILL got the rejection notice. Adam understood the problem, helped me clarify the issues, and got it registered way ahead of schedule compared to the initial time estimate. Absolutely saved me a ton of headache and worry, best money I spent all year. My trademark is announced for publication in a few weeks. This is a person to develop a business relationship with, 100%.

Although I am a licensed attorney (trial litigator) I quickly realized I needed expert legal advice navigating the murky waters of trademark law and intellectual property. Adam is very knowledgeable in the field of intellectual property and was able to guide me through the confusing trademark registration process. As a fellow member of the bar, I would highly recommend Adam Garson. He is excellent and easy to reach. A+

I have worked with Brian and his firm Graubard Miller since 1998 when I was chief legal officer at Winstar New Media and Graubard was Winstar's main outside law firm. In over 15 years spanning Winstar and private legal practice, I have worked closely with Brian on numerous commercial agreements and securities and M&A transactions -- from public stock and debt offerings at Winstar to partnerships, mergers and private placements for common clients. Simply put, Brian is one of the best corporate lawyers I have ever worked with, including my 8 years at Milbank and doing deals with top firms around the city. He's a straight shooter with tremendous dedication and integrity. He's also a great guy, and very fair and reasonable with billing, at times to a fault. In short, he's my go-to outside corporate counsel. It is therefore a real pleasure to give Brian my highest and unqualified recommendation and endorsement.

I have known Brian for over 14 years and recommend him without reservation. He is very knowledgeable about corporate matters especially Mergers and Acquisitions and SEC compliance issues. I operate a Hedge Fund and managed an OTC Company for 13 years and Brian was our legal counsel for all SEC matters. He is conscious of legal fees and keeps them to minimum. His greatest strength is he is a deal maker not a deal killer and can take disagreements between parties and find common ground and come to satisfactory conclusions for both sides. I have referred him to other clients and friends of mine and they were very pleased with his advice.

Brian has been a huge help for my start-up business. He has advised us on best practices for hiring/firing, created our operating agreement, and helped us create all of our contracts for new hires as well as general contractors (including NDAs, employee agreements, release forms, etc). He is also always available when needed and gets everything done on time/when I need it. I have already recommended him and would do so again.

Brandon McKenzie more than lives up to his reputation as the “Airbnb lawyer.” He and his firm have helped me navigate complex real estate matters and Airbnb regulations and legislation. Our association hired Brandon as a lobbyist, and he was successful in lobbying for the defeat of an ill-conceived bill that would have outlawed or unreasonably restricted short-term rentals. Legislators have since adopted a considerable amount of the language he drafted in a competing bill, so we are now much closer to a common sense piece of legislation that will serve the interest of all stakeholders involved.

Esquire Mckenzie was recommended to me and I hired him to represent me before the Office of Administrative Trials and Hearings (OATH) and yet he delivered fantastic results (all dismissed) and spared me from financial ruin.
I will be forever grateful to him.
As an attorney, he was courteous, compassionate, knowledgeable, well prepared, and detail oriented.
Brandon, thank you so much! I had an inner feeling that I had to hire you and I am glad I listened to it.
Look forward to working with you in the future...
