I would like to express my appreciation and gratitude to Mr. Curtis. I was in a really compromised situation with my real estate contract. I wish I would have reached out to Stephen sooner before this situation occurred. After scheduling consultations with other lawyers, I was informed I did not have many options without recourse from others. Stephen listened and saw the big picture. Right away he understood my side of the situation after reviewing the evidence and sprung into action with a plan. Not only did he expedite and resolve my problem immediately, I actually came out ahead. Anyone looking for a great attorney that will listen, fight and spring into action on your behalf, Stephen Curtis and his wonderful staff will definitely take care of you. Thank you.

Absolutely amazing!!! I literally cannot imagine what I would have done without my legal team after my accident. Lance, Alan, and Jessica have truly been life savers. They've gone above and beyond in every way possible and helped me get through the aftermath of a truly horrific accident. They were so supportive and handled everything, which allowed me to put my full focus on recovery and learning to walk again. If I could give more stars I would. 100 million stars for Wainwright & Associates, P.A. Thank you all so much for what you've done for me.

How are you a personal injury lawyer passing judgments for a bank and placing them on people’s records? What is your actual area of practice? Your website does not include representing big corporations to defeat the little guy?
Shame on you for misleading and misrepresenting yourself. You’re a collection agency who buys peoples debts and sues them knowing you’re not a the owner of the debt.Out here during disabled homeless veterans. Shame on you!

All new injury attorneys are all the same your commercial state that you're for the little guy and when the little guy needs most help you turn them away. If the case doesn't deepen your pockets you don't even try you give us some lame excuse why you can't take our case. Four different attorneys told me the same thing we can't take your case because of some stupid excuse or another. But yet all four of them told me I have a good case. All injury attorneys really need to change your commercials because they're all lies. You wanted my experience well there ya have it.

It was marvelous. I am handicapped and had an incident where I was pushed with verbal insults at work. This law firm is full on cases and cannot accept new client. However they took the time, out of their busy day, to send 3 referrals of law firms that may be able to assist in this matter. That is above and beyond the call of duty THANK YOU.

I was recently charged with something I did not do. I was obviously concerned and hired Mr. Martinez. This was a very new experience for me and it was overwhelming. I was very happy with the service and overall experience. While dealing with the first issue, a second (also false accusation) arose. Mr Martinez took on that case as well. I am very happy to say that he got both cases dismissed.
For one of the cases there was a meeting with a judge and Mr. Martinez handled it wonderfully. The second was dismissed without a trial. He knows what he is doing and can make a tough situation much more manageable. I researched lawyers, and there were cheaper options, but when your freedom and future are at stake, it is worth it to pay for quality representation.
His paralegal Kenna is both professional and pleasant to deal with. Communications were very prompt and she answered my questions and concerns.
Bottom line: Mr. Martinez got the job done and protected my future. I will always be grateful to Mr Martinez and Kenna

Darlene Gomez and her staff are highly knowledgeable in their field and I am so grateful to her and her staff in their guidance in our interactions with local and federal law enforcement and Tribal government. We were at a loss when my niece disappeared and it seemed like our voices and concerns were falling on deaf ears, and she heard our cries for help. She is very professional and genuinely cares for her clients. She and her staff have been on this journey with our family throughout this very difficult time in our lives. I feel her persistence in keeping the Missing, Murdered Indigenous People in the media has really making a difference in how the tribal government is reacting to cases. As busy as she is, she makes time to promptly respond to emails and phone calls.

Darlene and her team are the most generous, caring, and professional group of phenomenal women. This law firm genuinely cares about the importance of addressing, contending, and vanquishing racial, fem, and system inequalities/racism experienced by Indigenous people today. Darlene diligently extended her services to us during our time of crisis, not only was she helpful professionally she also assisted in connecting us to resources unique to our case. This law firm is experienced in Indigenous injustice's, rights, tribal legalities, and cases related specifically to violence against women, and missing murdered Indigenous relatives. In our situation we were exhausted, frustrated, and feeling hopeless. Undoubtably with the teams’s legal expertise and leverage, we were able to get immediate response, gain the momentum needed, and finally get resolution when law enforcement failed us. This firm is led by fierce brown women who have the feminine warrior spirit rooted in intergenerational knowledge.

I highly recommend Darlene Gomez for speaking engagements related to MMIWR/MMIP. If your organization is looking for expert speakers to help you understand MMIWR/MMIP issues, she is worth your organizations time and finding. Darlene is an incredible advocate and speaker. She provides top notch education on MMIP legal and advocacy issues to a wide variety of audiences. She is tenacious in her commitment to working with diverse government and non-government organizations to find missing people.

What a Business Lawyer Can Do for You
A business lawyer provides critical legal guidance and support to entrepreneurs, startups, and established businesses. Whether you are forming a new company, drafting contracts, or navigating complex regulations, a business attorney ensures you are legally protected and operating within the law. They can also help prevent legal disputes or represent you in negotiations, transactions, or lawsuits that arise during the course of business operations.
Business lawyers have expertise in areas such as business formation, contract law, intellectual property, employment law, mergers and acquisitions, and corporate governance. They ensure that your business is compliant with relevant laws and help mitigate risks that could threaten your company's success.
When Should I Hire a Business Lawyer?
Hiring a business lawyer is essential at various stages of business development, including:
- Forming a business: When deciding on the best structure for your company (LLC, corporation, partnership, etc.), a lawyer can guide you through the registration and compliance process.
- Drafting contracts: If you need contracts for employees, partners, suppliers, or clients, a lawyer ensures these documents are legally sound and in your best interest.
- Mergers, acquisitions, or dissolutions: If you are buying, selling, or dissolving a company, legal counsel is critical to avoid costly mistakes.
- Compliance and regulatory issues: A lawyer can help navigate complex regulations, particularly in industries like healthcare, finance, or tech.
- Resolving disputes: Whether it's contract disagreements, intellectual property infringement, or employment issues, a business lawyer helps mediate, negotiate, or litigate on your behalf.
What Does a Business Lawyer Do?
Business lawyers provide a wide range of services that cater to different legal needs of a business. They can:
- Help you choose the best legal structure for your business.
- Draft, review, and negotiate contracts with employees, suppliers, customers, or business partners.
- Ensure regulatory compliance with local, state, and federal laws.
- Advise on tax strategies to minimize your business's tax burden.
- Assist with intellectual property protection, such as trademarks, patents, and copyrights.
- Handle mergers, acquisitions, and business sales, ensuring all legal paperwork is in order.
- Resolve disputes through negotiation, arbitration, or litigation.
How Are Business Lawyers Paid?
Business lawyers typically charge either by the hour or on a flat-fee basis, depending on the complexity of the work. Common payment structures include:
- Hourly rates: The lawyer charges based on the time spent working on your case. Rates vary depending on the lawyer's experience and location.
- Flat fees: For certain tasks, such as incorporating a business or drafting a standard contract, a lawyer may offer a flat fee.
- Retainer: Some businesses may hire a lawyer on retainer, paying a fixed amount each month to have ongoing access to legal services.
The payment structure is often discussed during an initial consultation so you can choose the one that best suits your business needs and budget.
How Much Does a Business Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a business lawyer depends on factors such as:
- The complexity of the legal issue: More complex matters, like mergers or intellectual property disputes, typically cost more than routine tasks like contract drafting.
- The lawyer's experience and location: More experienced lawyers or those in larger cities often charge higher fees.
- The nature of the billing arrangement: Hourly rates can range from $150 to $1,000 or more, depending on the lawyer's expertise. Flat fees are usually available for simpler matters like forming an LLC or drafting a standard contract.
It's essential to discuss fee structures upfront to avoid surprises.
Top Questions to Ask a Business Lawyer
Before hiring a business lawyer, ask the following questions during your consultation:
-
What is your experience with businesses like mine?
Find out if the lawyer has handled legal issues for companies in your industry. -
What services do you offer?
Ensure the lawyer can meet all your business's legal needs, from contract drafting to dispute resolution. -
What are your fees, and how do you bill?
Get clarity on how you'll be charged - whether by the hour, flat fee, or retainer. -
How do you handle conflicts of interest?
Ask how the lawyer ensures there is no conflict in representing your business. -
Can you provide references from other business clients?
Speaking with past clients will give you an idea of the lawyer's expertise and professionalism. -
Do you have experience in my specific industry?
Industry-specific knowledge can be crucial, especially in highly regulated fields like healthcare or finance.
How to Check the Credibility of a Business Lawyer
To ensure you're hiring a reputable business lawyer:
- Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is in good standing and has no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for client reviews or testimonials: Online reviews, testimonials, or word of mouth from other business owners can provide insight into the lawyer's reliability and effectiveness.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should have satisfied clients who can vouch for their services.
- Check professional memberships: Membership in respected legal organizations (such as the American Bar Association or a local business lawyer association) can signal credibility.
- Review their website and professional profile: A well-established lawyer typically has a professional website showcasing their areas of expertise, credentials, and case success.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with a business lawyer, prepare the following:
- A description of your business and its structure: This will help the lawyer understand your legal needs.
- Any current contracts or agreements: If you're seeking contract advice, bring copies of existing contracts.
- A list of legal issues or concerns: Be ready to discuss any potential legal challenges, such as regulatory compliance, disputes, or transactions.
- Financial documents: If applicable, bring financial records related to the legal matter you're seeking help with.
- Questions about fees and billing: Ensure you understand the lawyer’s payment structure and fees upfront.
By preparing these materials, you can ensure that your first meeting with a business lawyer is productive and informative.
