Great place and caring people. I did medical power of attorney for my two kids that just turn 18. I am glad I was told about this service because I now know my kids in college have a medical issue that I still can take care of them. Also great price and so easy.

Tom and Simona are consummate professionals that worked tirelessly on my case. They supported me not just as a client but as a person as well. Beyond a shadow of a doubt I would recommend them and the Lovorn Law Firm to anyone needing legal assistance.

I worked with Leigh Ann Greenberg and Jordan Estrada on a probate administration and heirship determination matter recently in a county near San Antonio. They were incredibly professional and finalized the case very quickly for their client, which seems to be rare these days because a lot of attorneys I work with take forever to finalize simple matters. Neither Leigh Ann or Jordan are afraid to pick up a phone and talk to opposing counsel too, which saves time on any case instead of typing emails, which can run up a client's bill. I was very impressed with this law firm, Leigh Ann and Jordan, and I refer them for probate/estate planning/trusts/trust administration and the other types of law they offer legal services for.

I live out of state and needed to find an attorney to assist me with a land dispute in Texas. David Brock came highly recommended and after our first conversation, I understood why. He took the time needed to understand the challenges I was facing. In giving advice, I could tell he had the highest professional ethics and took the "high" road. I feel like he was looking out for my best interest and in doing so, he earned my respect and trust. During our conversations, David demonstrated high levels of expertise and he possessed the specialized skills I needed. When conflicts with the opposing attorney arose, he handled them in a calm, objective manner with confidence. David places a high value on time effectiveness. He took into consideration that I live in a different time zone and would adjust his schedule. He would always make himself available to speak with me and kept me updated. Thank you, David, for everything you did. You showed compassion, professionalism, knowledge, everything that someone looks for in an attorney. I appreciate your time, effort and professionalism. Sincerely, Tony Moskowitz

My husband and I were planning on going on a trip abroad without the kids. I wanted to leave everything in order just in case something happened to us. I’ve never hired an attorney before and was so pleased with how easy it was to work with Deena. She thoroughly explained all the legal documents we needed (will, directive, guardian for minors etc) and had them ready for our review in less than a week. She even came to our home when we had to sign the documents to ensure we didn’t miss anything. We left to our trip with peace of mind - will definitely hire Deena again. Highly recommended!

I'm just a little fish in a big pond and really felt that I was being bullied by a well represented landlord. After reviewing the documents and gathering the facts Mr Hundley was ready to take immediate action and give the other side fair warning to cease and desist. So far so good, but if I need to go any further legally... This IS the man I will put my faith in to fight for me.

I have known Patrick for 13 years and he has never hesitated to reach out to me or listen to my emotional pleas...lol. He counsels me and teaches me and made me always feel as though I was his family. I have had to use him in a criminal case when I was a juvenile and needed him in a long drawn out child custody case as well. I thank him and his family and God for blessing our family with having him in our life. I pray he can help us in this child custody case we are facing again. I'm sure the great Lord will have everything work out just fine. Thanks Patrick.

I was looking for an attorney and ended up with a friend. Grace is a straight forward no bull attorney, she is highly skilled at what she does. Everything she said up front happened just like she said, she exceeded my expectations, and I would recommend her to any of my friends. She’s the real deal and if I ever need help I have her number in my phone, she is who I would call.

No. Grace has always listened to understand the objectives to be achieved, researched options, offered alternatives, recommended a course of action, and achieved the objectives for me. She is thorough and gives the extra effort. Respectful, engaging, yet tough minded. She has recommended specializing attorneys when an assignment is outside her wheel house. She has handled my business and personal matters with grace, no pun intended, competency, and effective follow through. She has saved my business significant dollars with her approaches and negotiated effectual contracts.

Lasca Arnold is the nicest and sweetest lawyer I have ever met. She was patient, kind and comforting with us, and at the same time kept neutral and calm. She listened to our circumstances and gave us all the information that satisfied us. As we went through this uncomfortable journey, she kept telling us what steps needed to be taken which made us feel at ease. It’s one of the saddest things to loss a love one, especially your mother, but Lasca helped us move on in our lives, so I want to give her credit for that too. Thank you for your services you are doing a great job.

Matt and his staff are a very professional firm that worked hard to help my bf in his custody case for his 2 kids after their mother moved them states away. They were very responsive and kept us well informed throughout the entire process. I especially loved how hard hitting they were when it came to negotiating for the custody order. They never gave in to requests unless they were in their clients best interest! I definitely recommend The Gilbert Office!

I tried to hire the services of this firm regarding a contract dispute with a large business. Just looking to pay for basic legal representation and assistance, but could not get past the person who answered the phone. It was obvious that my phone call was an inconvenience as she was determined not to provide any assistance: "I REALLY don't think our attorneys can help in this type of legal matter."

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.
