I have been a self-employed business owner for 34 years, and have had experience with several attorneys. I and my company were sued with no good cause by an individual for financial damages, and this action lasted about 3 years. I can honestly say without reservation, and with my strongest possible recommendation, that Chris Fein is the finest and most skillful and knowledgeable attorney I have ever encountered. He is extremely intelligent and thoughtful, takes the time to listen and understand all of the issues at hand, and how they affect you or your business, is a master strategist, of the highest ethics both professionally and personally, and is very adroit verbally at the bar or in legal conference. He is also very patient and understanding, realizing that most clients are not legally educated. I would urge anyone reading this to retain his services if needed, and confer my very highest possible recommendation on his behalf.

Not knowing if I even needed an attorney I spoke with Attorney Benner on the phone, he was aware right away that I did not need an attorney, however that didn’t stop him from going out of his way to continue to explain a lot of information to me about my situation and actually educate me about it. I do not usually leave reviews, however it was refreshing to be treated respectfully by an attorney. He was actually a really nice guy.

I highly recommend attorney Briana Nashawaty and the qualified team of individuals at Herbst Law Group. She stepped in and assisted me with my parents’ complex estate plan when nobody else wanted to get involved, and then guided me through to the very end with patience, kindness and clear instruction. Attorney Nashawaty is professional, knowledgeable and accessible. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her services again for future estate needs.

We had the pleasure of working with Bill during the closing of our home, and we cannot recommend him highly enough. My husband and I are both attorneys, and we were deeply impressed by Bill’s exceptional legal acumen, responsiveness, and professionalism throughout what was an extremely complex transaction involving numerous parties.
His proactive communication kept us informed and reassured every step of the way, even as new complications arose. Bill’s attention to detail and his willingness to go above and beyond ensured that everything stayed on track, and his calm demeanor helped alleviate the stress of such a high-stakes process.
For anyone seeking an attorney who combines legal expertise with excellent client service, Bill is an outstanding choice. We are so grateful for his hard work and dedication to making our transaction a success.

Bill and his crew could not have been better to deal with. I felt like a billionaire with my own personal lawyer. Everytime I contacted him he or a paralegal would reach right back out with out hesitation. The purchase of my house was anything but normal due to some complications that were hit. Bill still handled it exceptionally through the 3-4 months that It dragged on through. Don't look elsewhere, just stop now and call Bill at Sinclaw. You will not regret it.

Attorney Tony Gemma and his paralegal, Betty Caruso were a pleasure to work with. Tony's advice and guidance was priceless and really helped us through our problems and misgivings as beneficiaries.

While searching Google for a Probate lawyer, I reached out to several local lawyers and Gemma's law was one of them. I spoke with the receptionist who made an appointment for a consultation after I explained my probate situation.
Shortly after, another firm called me back and was able to talk with me right away. I gave the courtesy to Gemma Law and called to cancel my consultation thinking I had the answers I needed for my situation.
It turns out, I found myself searching online again for some more probate information and came across Gemma Law once again. I called and spoke to the same receptionist as before, and she remembered me, told me she would get back to me, and the lawyer now came up with some excuse that they aren't able to help me with my probate issue.
If this is how Gemma Law treats potential customers, STAY AWAY! Pretty immature and unprofessional. I know this review wont put him out of business nor is that the intention, but just letting others know of my experience with this firm albeit how short it never was.

Attorney Compston was great! He replied back to me whenever I reached out to him. He gave me the best advice and effectively had a felony dismissed after a long strenuous appeals process! I am now able to start a career that was put on hold for 4 years! Thank you!!!! And no, just like I use to think, this is not a fake review...this is an actual satisfied client that appreciates an attorney working hard to help change someone's life!!

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.
