Dennis is an exceptional lawyer and truly the best I’ve encountered. As an IMG, I felt incredibly uncertain and anxious when faced with an issue involving ECFMG that could have jeopardized my medical career. Dennis’s expertise was invaluable—he helped me reorganize my approach and thoroughly prepared everything, which gave me tremendous reassurance. He was always highly responsive, provided clear and detailed answers, and demonstrated extensive experience by offering constructive solutions at every step. His warm, personable demeanor and sense of humor helped ease my nerves, even in such a high-stakes situation. Thanks to his support, my case concluded with a very satisfying result, and I believe Dennis played a pivotal role in this success.

I had the pleasure of speaking to Mr Abramson and I can't recommend him highly enough. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in my case. He took the time to explain every step of the ECFMG process and made sure I felt comfortable and informed. He was strategic and thoughtful in helping me plan next steps, with mitigating circumstances. Truly a dedicated and skilled lawyer for foreign medical graduates unsure about navigating the complexities of medical licensing in the US.

Tom helped me through a moving violation court process. Tom was knowledgeable and patient throughout the whole process. Without Tom my license would have surely been suspended and I would have been made to pay hefty fines. Tom was able to pick apart the charges and show that I was wrongly charged and we beat the case. I highly recommend Tom's services if your license is in jeopardy.

Jason, is definitely the lawyer you would want when dealing with legal matters or if ur not sure if u even have a case!. I as well as others who didn’t know we had a case came to him “Jason” & he listened to my / our situation and then told us we are going to challenge the situation!. He had more faith in the case than I did. Long story short he didn’t give up, we got a great settlement & even while going through the case and after the case he checked and checks up on me!. He’s more than a lawyer he’s definitely a great person to have in your corner! U definitely won’t regret having this lawyer as your lawyer!

If you need someone truly supportive and understanding, who will be in your corner every step of the way, Jason Pearlman is definitely the person for you. I am immensely grateful to have had Jason represent me. Not only is he exceptionally knowledgeable and informative, but he also genuinely believed in my case when no one else did. I could reach Jason anytime with questions, and he was always available to guide me through the process, provide necessary information, and support me with his valuable time. Thanks to Jason, we achieved a wonderful outcome. He was the only attorney who really believed in my case, boosting my self-esteem and giving me the strength to push forward. Jason empowered me to stand up for myself, and without him, I would never have proceeded with the case. This case was very personal to me, and I am incredibly thankful that I could share my story and be heard. Jason, thank you so much for your time, patience, and support throughout the entire process. You were truly God send and I will always be very grateful for all your guidance.

I filed trademarks with the USPTO and then received office actions from the examiners. I was not equipped to handle the responses so we hired Company Counsel LLC. We worked with Bernard Williams and Ricardo Unikel. They were both excellent, efficient, understood our needs and we had remarkable results at an affordable cost. We risked losing our company name and they were able to communicate with the USPTO examiners and resolve their concerns. The outcome was outstanding! I will use them again in the future.

Dan was an amazing advocate for my son's education. His experience and direct communication were needed throughout the case. I appreciated his no-nonsense and realistic style, which kept us focused on achieving the best possible outcome. While the process was more drawn out than expected (due to the other party), Dan's dedication and updates gave us the reassurance we needed. He continued to fight for justice for my son which kept us thinking positive. I finally felt like I was getting the help I needed in this case. I would definitely recommend Dan to anyone facing injustice in their child's education. His expertise and commitment make him someone you need in your corner in a fight for a quality education.

Mr.Kessler was recommended by an acquaintance of mine. After my initial meeting with i was very impressed with his knowledge and direction pertaining to my personal injury problem. Dealing with my situation and condition over a period of time his advice was spot on. At our last meeting before finalizing my case i couldn't believe the amount of material concerning my case that he had collected. I do believe that his knowledge, experience and continued diligence is the reason for a successful outcome. I know that I would not consider anyone else handling my legal problems for me.

I hired Richard to represent me in an accident case. What a mistake which I could tell from the beginning but hung in there for two wasteful years then preceded to let him go and hire someone else. He did work the first year but the second year I had very little communication from him and his favorite line was " I am working on it". He was lying to me by telling me he was waiting for medical records from two of my doctors, this went on for months until I called the doctors myself, got the records and they preceded to tell me that they never had any requests from him asking for my records. by then the case could have been settled. He would have dragged this on forever if I had not stepped up to the plate and let him go. He was very unprofessional and after the fact found out he has a tendancy to do this with other clients. I would never recommend him to anyone.

Do not use Seth P. Maltzman and his office… He does not care about you… He’s shown he just cares about himself… This guy is awful at communicating and handles himself very unprofessionally. All he wants is to do the bare minimum and throw you to the side to get to the next client. After my mother passed away, this man reached out to me about distributing a few hundred dollars from a small last bit of inheritance left from an estate account he managed. After confirming details, he issued a check. A week goes by and the check failed to deposit… it bounced… what does he have to say?… that the estate is no longer under his control, and that he would provide details of who to contact. So what does he do? He sends me an address of the remaining family member (which we already knew) but provides no contact information of whoever is managing the estate account. He actually doesn’t explain at all what’s happening, and then blocks my number after I ask why he acted the way he was. He reaches out to me first about a check, the check fails, and doesn’t finish what he started, and blocks me? How does that make sense? All over a few hundred dollars… Like I said, do not get your legal work done by Seth, he unpleasant to speak with, and really doesn’t care about helping you.

I was so optimistic to have my child’s case reviewed because I knew how poorly the district was handling my child’s education and special needs. Unfortunately I found engaging with this law firm to be excessively expensive while receiving little to no actual guidance. I was left dealing with the school district for months with no real strategy to achieve my goal. The district ended up receiving a lot of good advice from this firm on how to correct their errors and it was on my dime while I was left looking like a fool. This firm actually drafted and sent a proposal to the district for tuition expenses towards a school my child couldn’t get in to! Because there was no sensible strategy and my case was delayed again and again I constantly had to reach out to the firm and was charged a ridiculous rate for communications. No decent lawyer will over charge for advising a client on what should be their field of expertise. Bad experience, I would not recommend this firm unless you are well versed in special education law yourself otherwise you will be taken for a ride and your child ends up suffering.

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:

  1. What is your experience with businesses like mine?
    Find out if the lawyer has handled legal issues for companies in your industry.
  2. What services do you offer?
    Ensure the lawyer can meet all your business's legal needs, from contract drafting to dispute resolution.
  3. 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.
  4. How do you handle conflicts of interest?
    Ask how the lawyer ensures there is no conflict in representing your business.
  5. Can you provide references from other business clients?
    Speaking with past clients will give you an idea of the lawyer's expertise and professionalism.
  6. 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.
