Ann provided me excellent service and responsive & helpful communication re: a property boundary dispute with my neighbor. I felt good having her on my side batting for me.
She has a sharp intellect, based on extensive years of experience in sniffing out BS, esp. in messy real estate deals. Beyond just being a good attorney, she really does care about her clients and is extremely generous with her wise counsel and time.
I would definitely seek her counsel again and highly recommend her to others seeking legal highly competent counsel with heart & brains.
Thank you Anne for being you!

June 2023 my long pending case for 6 years was denied by immigration and I was very devastated because the initial lawyer I engaged could not help. After a couple of searches online, I met Baoqin Wang who offered to help resolve my case. She lectured me and my wife on the best approach to my case and she was very helpful all through the process. Here we are after a year and 2 months of reopening the case - holding my 10 years green card in my hand! I now wake up with a big smile on my face trying to believe this is true. Her knowledge of the job and excellent communication style is second to none. I highly recommend them to anyone in need of reliable immigration services.

Baoqin has been working with me in the past 7 years, from my H1B until my green card approval. I had great experiences with her and was retreated with respect and patience. As an immigrant I always have many questions and concerns of my current situation and Baoqin always provided the most professional advice and responded very timely. I recommend you all to work with Baoqin if you need professional help with your immigration case. My experience told me that I made a great choice 7 years ago.

I contacted Mr. Galm about a car accident. He called me back to sort out if we really needed his services and spoke with me by telephone for 20 mnutes. He explained the way the laws would work in our situation and what he would expect to happen. In a situation which had caused a great deal of anxiety for our family, he was able to ease our minds in minutes. We ended up concluding we would not need his help with this situation, but if I ever need a lawyer again for this kind of problem, he will be the one we contact!

Paul went above and beyond for us after my husband was injured in an accident. He was thorough, attentive to all aspects of the case, and kept us informed of all of our options. He brought in experts and carefully examined who was responsible for the accident. What I really appreciated was when other lawyers would have given up, Paul continued to fight for us. We would seek Paul's counsel again if we needed legal representation.

Meredith is a pleasure to work with. She has helped with small business decisions, set up leases and contracts for me and reviewed my trust and will that had been drawn up by another attorney years ago. I highly recommend her services.

I am guardian, conservator and wife of my loved one who has a mental illness. It was a breath of fresh air to meet with her as she listened and clearly offered me options to support my loved one and support me - now and in the future. And, due to the previous attorney not filing a report correctly, I was called into court and Meredith was able to go to court for me, reschedule the court date and arrange to allow me to be on the phone. This is a huge benefit for me as I travel for work to support my loved ones care needs and this saved me $2500.00. She is the first attorney who I feel has their head and heart connected that I can totally trust to guide me in a way that works for me and my loved one. Thank you Meredith, very much.

Steve really fought hard for me on my case. He takes his clients' interest to heart, and doesn't roll over to pressure or bully tactics. He proved to me he has integrity and compassion in his work, and cares about clients. I don't know how he puts up with some of the attorneys he has to work with, but he came through for me when I thought all hope was lost.

I used Steve a number of years ago to fight an insurance company on my behalf. He did a great job and forced the company to pay what they should have. The insurance company fought back as well, even trying some quasi-ethical tactics to intimidate Steve and me. Steve stuck to it and got me paid. He was appropriately aggressive and also realistic and I was able to get a good settlement. I would use him again.

Steve is outstanding. He saved my home from a combination of mortgage fraud, misrepresentation, false promises and erroneous paperwork. I now have an excellent mortgage modification because of his knowledge and negotiating expertise.

I met David through a mutual attorney/friend. I was in the middle of rehabbing a house to "flip" with a partner and his wife who were not working well as a partner. David took a look at our agreement and our private investors involvement. After taking time to get everyone on the "same page" we were able to close the deal and still make money. Alot more went into what he did than I can explain here, but the bottom line is that I know that I should have had David involved since day one.

Last month I referred a close family friend to Steve Burke for help with a real estate dispute. My friend recently told me that she was blown away by the high level of service she received.
She said Steve answered her calls personally, knew exactly what to do, and quickly helped her recover all the money she was owed.
I can't thank Steve and the attorneys at Case & Dusterhoff enough for helping a friend in need!

Working with Mario Musil was a great a pleasure. The moment from our first conversation. More concerned was my wife being the foreigner. Mario assisted and reassured us through the entire process. His assistance exceeded our expectations, through correspondence through phone calls, emails, and in another country. It did not matter he made time. His professionalism, detailed work and advisement, gave our home peace of mind when told that we did not need to go for an interview. We could not be greatful for the team that he has placed in his firm. We definitely recommend Mario Musil and his legal team to anyone needing counsel in immigration law. Thank You Mario.

I had the pleasure of working with Mario Musil recently, and I must say, their professionalism and dedication to their clients are truly commendable.

He listened attentively to my concerns, provided clear explanations, and demonstrated a deep understanding of immigration law. Their responsiveness and accessibility made communication smooth and efficient. I am grateful for their guidance and expertise, and I highly recommend Musil Law Firm to anyone seeking legal assistance. Thank you for your outstanding service!

This attorney is stellar in my book, having practiced law for nearly (or over) 40 years and has become known for securing outstanding outcomes for his clients. His clients are by referral only, not through advertizing. He offers expertise, integrity, and a bit of advice to improve your situation...if you had a part in your dilemma. He is exceptional in many ways and to hire him to represent you is an experience many people walk away from enriched and often as friends. He is known in the legal community, respected by opponents, and a bulldog to those being dishonest and unethical. He has represented my family at various times with business issues, has a strong approach that conveys confidence and he gets results. Wonderful to work with as a genuine, honest, and rational attorney. And his daughter has become an attorney also!

I have had previousl experiences with immigration attorneys. Baoqin is the best and I would never look for another after what she has done for my wife and I. She also did our trusts. She is mindful of your concerns and carefully explains complex details in a manner that is easy for a non-lawyer to understand.

Mark has recently helped my husband and I through some issues regarding our business, and is continuing to help us. Mark not only did exactly what he said he would do, he gave us confidence throughout the process. We trust him completely and would recommend him to anyone needing help with their business. Mark was considerate and flexible to our needs, and always willing to take the time to answer our questions thoroughly. Though already very knowledgable, if there was ever a question he was unable to answer, Mark did he research and replied to us in a very reasonable amount of time. He has already saved my husband and I thousands of dollars.

Terrible experience with this lawyer in regards to an estate case. Communication was horrible, was not trustworthy. He came across trusting and that he would have my interest be a priority but it was NOT the case. He ultimately cost me to lose approx $30,000.00 of my estate money. I even had to hire another attorney to deal with Mr. Holady when he would not respond to me even after admitting what he had done. Make sure you do a good background check on lawyers BEFORE you hire and use the Oregon State Bar to look for any issues filed against attorneys. Mr. Holady has several complaints filed with the Oregon State Bar, you have to call and ask for the info; which is public record. This gives you an idea of what type of person he is. If we had done this first it would have save us a lot of headaches, and undeserved stress. I am sharing my experience so others can learn and make educated decision before hiring this attorney.

I had an IRS situation that he said was a very easy case. I should be resolved in about a year, that was almost 3 years ago and I am still waiting. I gave him all my personal and financial information and he called me several weeks later and said he was still waiting for it. Very unorganized! I do not think he knew what he was doing. My case is still pending and he told me he has moved to LA. I do not trust his knowledge of the law at all.

This lawyer disappeared like a contractor! This was after he took our case and gave us hope and the illusion that he would be there for us. Total waste of time! Unless you have BIG $$$ or a case requiring no effort or any of his time, as a client you will be left in dust - this lawyer is un-responsive, seems unclear as to laws - unwilling to advise clients and can be intimidating to deal with. Very bad experience with no results, unless you can count wasting our time a result.

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.
