Where do I begin! Taylor Dahl is an absolute rockstar and a wonderful human being. She came highly recommended two years ago and I am thankful she took time from her busy schedule to fit me in. I have used her services for child custody, emancipation, adoption, and divorce and have been extremely satisfied every single time. She has fought for my daughters as if they were her own and has won every case with ease. Don’t let her calm demeanor fool you, she is a shark in court and always has her client’s best interest in mind.

While facing an extremely prejudicial command bias while on Active Duty, Taylor was not only an immense help with an extremely uncooperative local civilian investigation, but with also correcting an error with my military discharge paperwork. In both instances, Taylor's commitment to my sense of justice, my future and correcting an error (per Army Regulations, AR 635-8 and AR 601-210) have done everything towards, what I believe standing up for a Lower Enlisted Soldier. If facing either civilian or military investigation, criminal charges or divorce, Taylor Dahl would be the first person I'd call in Clarksville.

I am not going to lie, Mr. Burman himself is probably one of the nicest lawyers I have had to deal with when it came to my specific charges; he was very thorough, understanding, and straight to the point, which I personally appreciate! I had two charges one of which he even got DISMISSED! Towards the end there was a few misunderstandings but they were quickly resolved and still responded to with courtesy, professionalism, and politeness. I recommend this firm to anyone who needs a great public defender!

I first reached out to Steve Girsky in December of 2022 when my husband and I was entertaining the idea of a divorce. I submitted a "free" consultation request from his website and within 24 hours Steve responded and PERSONALLY reached out to me to set up a zoom meeting. He was very understanding and considerate of my emotions.
My husband and I went back in forward for 2 years on trying to work things out. As I went back and forward on at least 3 different occasions reaching out to Steve for guidance. He never once not taken my call, berated me for wasting his time, or ignored me. He was very patient and always provided me with the best possible solution for my situation. Finally, in September 2024 I went all in and officially hired Steve. Prior to hiring him I was a bit concerned about something and I wanted to know if it was best to file Uncontested or Contested based on an asset that I felt that I wanted to fight for, but at the same time I didn't have a lot of money to go back and forwards with a Contested Divorce, especially if I may not win. Steve called me bright and early that morning and explained to me how Court/Judge works when it came to that particular asset and considering it was bought prior to our marriage and was still in my husband's name (even though it was a gift to my daughter) Steve felt that it would be in my best interest to go Uncontested because I wouldn't win just based off those things. After taken Steve advice, I released the asset back to my husband and I immediately felt an overwhelming amount of stress and anxiety lift off my chest. My husband became cooperative with the Divorce, waived his rights to Contest, Appeal and Counsel and signed the papers without any issues. Literally, everything Steve told me would happen, happened. Effective, December 2024 our Divorce will be FINALIZED all within 60 days just as Steve promised. I am so very grateful and thankful for Steve and Rebecca. Thank you!

I'm a dad, in the Army, of two boys. I recently got divorced where my ex wife tried a lot of nasty tricks to get custody of the boys. Thanks to Mr. Steve Girsky and his office I got custody of both of my children and my divorce is done. Mr, Girsky and his team will give you great advice on how to navigate things as the divorce is on going, will listen to what you want done, and get it done. If I didn't have Mr. Girsky and his team, I do not know if things would have went as well as they did for me. Not only would I recommend him to anyone, I already have recommended him to a friend who is also in the Army. He did well with him. Don't be afraid to ask questions and definitely listen to the advice from him and his team they are absolutely amazing.

My ex and I split up and I tried to work out things and be amicable, but you know some people everything fight. That's what this was a fight. Unlike the 2 other reviews for me, John was a bulldog. He made sure I got the agreement I wanted and nothing that I did not. He kept me informed, emailed me consistently, and scheduled appointments around my schedule. Then when my ex refused to pay child support he fought in court to ensure I did. After the judge revoked his visitation I was sued by his parents for grandparents rights. I was angry and of course sad because I felt wronged by his family. After fighting that John was honest with me that we were going to win, but did I want that, for my child? Did I want my bitterness to impact his life? Those aren't his words of course they're mine, but he made me realize that my inlaws weren't the problem, my ex was and they did kick him out of their house when they found out he was using which was my issue all along. So I called my mother-in-law, we cried, and we worked it out. Most lawyers may not have been so blunt, but it saved my relationship with them. Although my ex is not around I am still close to my inlaws, even since I've remarried. He was on top of it for me and I'd hire him again if the need arose.

I hired John to assist in establish a parenting plan. His knowledge was somewhat good but when it actually came time for trial it seemed as if he was not prepared for the case. Also in numerous attempts to contact him via email and phone calls to ask questions pertaining to the judgement they went unanswered.

Good legal mind good legal strategies but awful manners. He is very sarcastic and has an odd sense of humor. He told two other attorneys what we spoke about which I found odd since he is a grown man and I am a housewife. I guess gossip is gossip. He has a real smartmouth on him but he knows his stuff when it comes to the law.

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.

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.

- 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. -

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.
