I would like to appreciate the great experience working with Steve in obtaining my green card. From day one, he was thorough, knowledgeable, and very patient with us, explaining every little thing and making sure we felt very confident at each step. He has more than 20 years of experience in this field, and it really shows by the way the whole process gave us such a great sense of security. Everything happened exactly as he told us it would.
The green card process was overwhelming for me, and I had many questions, but he always took his time to answer me completely and clearly. Everything he outlined from our first consultation as he described it precisely, helped us feel prepared and reassured. I was surprised at the speed of the process of receiving my green card in 80 days without an interview, exactly as predicted.
I highly recommend Steve to anyone in need of immigration assistance. His dedication, experience, and patience made all the difference in what can be a very stressful journey. Thank you for all you did for us!

Vince Davis represented me in. DCFS / CPS case in LA County. I was in a big bind. Instead of going to trial against Davis they decided to give me a sweet heart deal. During the negotiations they tried to pull a fast one, but Davis had to remind them about the law and facts. If I kept the court appointed lawyer I would have been screwed. It really helps to have a 39 year expert trial lawyer. You get sweet heart deals.

Your customer service or receptionist has a very bad attitude. Yesterday, my son tried to get help and the woman was very rude. Someone called him but he was working (firefighter) and when he called back, the receptionist was rude again. You never know the hurt someone is feeling and how it's not easy to have to hire a lawyer and tell a stranger their problems. YOU should have more empathy or don't be in this business.
You were highly recommended by a friend who used your services 9 yrs ago. Maybe the quality of service has changed. This is not an easy call to make for this family.

I consulted Wendy over the phone and while she had just left on vacation, she still managed to give me her valuable time and provided thorough and well thought-out advice on my situation. I would give her more than 5 stars if it was possible.
From our conversation it was clear Wendy is someone who genuinely cares about getting the proper help for people seeking legal assistance. She listened attentively, and from the brief description of my position, she was able to grasp the situation and provided various helpful perspectives on several approaches/options and what to expect. Truly a professional with excellent service, I would recommend anyone seeking her help with any legal issues and advice.

I would highly recommend Margaret Hughes. She exemplifies the meaning of a hard working, honest, ethical, and knowledgeable attorney.
Margaret has a heart of gold, and will fight for you when other attorneys will turn their backs. Her work ethic is second to none and you can depend on her legal skills, perseverance and tenacity to win your case.
Margaret will represent your best interests, she is someone you want on your side.

There is no other lawyer like Michael Oddenino. He is the absolute best. II owned property prior to my marriage and my ex husband came after me. It was emotional and very difficult. I had heard of Michael and when I met him, I was finally able to put my worries to rest. He is confident and really follows through with his word. Highly experienced and professional. Lise is not in Michaels vocabulary. Divorce is never a win but peace of mind is what you get when you work with Michael. Even after the divorce was final, Michael was always available to answer questions via email or a call. He is always there. His team are the best and there is no other family law firm better than Michael and his team. I used to work with attorneys. I know what is out there. I would give him 1000 stars if I could for what he did for me and his team.

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.
