It takes an excellent communicator and legal strategist to keep a case moving along, unequivocally proving the points that need to be proven in the face of blatant manipulation of the facts of the case by opposing counsel.

Shakeba took her time and explained what the next steps were. Explained what she may or may not be able to do and was up front and honest. She declined to enter into a formal agreement requiring payment until she was sure she could help me. I appreciate she didn't just take my money and in the end be unable to help me put. Thank you Shakeba!

I was very distraught looking for representation and I finally found an attorney I could actually trust and be at ease with. I was on edge because my livelihood as well ass my career was on the line so I had to choose someone that I believed had my best interest at heart. She was well worth the money and time. She worked back and forth with the board to get a reasonable agreement. Her representation has allowed me to maintain employment in the healthcare field. I am also excited because I was offered several positions from her hard work. I would recommend her firm to anyone in need because you wont be disappointed.

I don't typically post reviews but I wanted to say a few words about Attorney DuBose. I hope these comments may prove helpful to someone out there in need of trustworthy and reliable legal advice.
My wife and I are both new physicians trying to navigate the ever changing climate of the healthcare career. Attorney DuBose has been a bedrock in our decision making process from contract reviews to compensation negotiations.
I was recently transitioning from one employer and seeking other career options, her advice proved not only relevant to my needs but more importantly up to date with current trends in hiring.
What we enjoy most about working with her practice is that the process is collaborative and not one sided. Law is very different from medicine, but what both professions share is a common level of trust.
If you want to avoid legal pitfalls, if you want to know what competitive wages "really" mean, and if you want someone who's competent and strong enough to tell you when to walk away from an offer or when to seize the opportunity then you want Attorney DuBose.

JD is excellent in his craft. He is respectful, modest, and works diligently to get great results. He is easy to get in contact with throughout the entire uncomfortable process, plus he didn't hesitate to contact me when he said that he would. He responded very well to the quick questions or inquiries that I had regarding my case. I've been burned in the past by a few attorneys but with him, I felt he was always quick to place my needs first. He gave me his honest feedback about my situation and allowed me time to make a decision regarding retaining his services. He is honest and transparent and although my chances of winning were slim I think his legal knowledge and application, clarity, and representation were very helpful in winning the verdict. Not only would I recommend his services to others, but I would rehire him.

I am an artist in the Columbus area. Major pieces of my work were broken due to mishandling at two art venues.

We were extremely lucky to find Ed after interviewing 4 other law firms. He guided us through our litigation with a true passion and strategic thinking every step of the way. His in depth knowledge, experience, ability to crank up the pressure while also seeking reasonable dialogue and outcomes was extraordinary and just what we needed as we went through the protracted legal process. As a true compliment to his abilities, we were only one of three plaintiffs in our case, and it was unanimously concluded that Ed should be the lead attorney representing all three parties' interests as well as the primary interface with the defendants. One more thing about Ed - nobody in the courtroom will ever be more prepared. And with all of the unexpected variables that come into play in a court case, that preparation proved to always be a difference maker. It made us appear even more credible and professional and enhanced our aura in all appearances in the court.

I have worked with Dennis Morrison continuously since 1990 in my then 40 year capacity as the Chief Lending Officer of a major commercial bank in Central Ohio followed as the Director of Asset Management for a major Midwest real estate development and management company.
Dennis successfully handled dozens of creditor rights cases each year for me and my various banking staff members. Dennis also represented our bank in many major loan documentation and closings transactions and provided counsel for numerous real estate related transactions.
Most recently Dennis was able to assist in an amicable conclusion, on a large mechanic lien case, which was filed without cause, keeping the situation out of the court system.
I have always found Denis to be reliable, engaged, accessible and highly competent in any legal work he was engaged for.
For these reasons, I have recommended Dennis to other clients of mine over the years and will continue to do so in the future.

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.
