I am a small business owner who was searching for legal representation with a matter with the State of California. Nathan was responsive, thorough, professional, and most off all, committed to ensuring I received the best outcome for my business. We both expected this matter to last 30 days at the most, but it ended up taking 9 months to receive an outcome. Nathan provided me clear and informed choices that I could pursue and, in the end, an outcome that kept me in business. I am grateful and very happy with Nathan's services. Thank you!

I had some questions and concerns regarding use of my medical license to order medications for international use. After contacting several lawyers I was referred to Nathan Mubasher who had the expertise and experience to provide guidance. During an initial phone consultation he was able to answer a lot of my questions and then provided a detailed proposal with a reasonable service fee. After our consultation I decided that I did not want to pursue the endeavor, therefore I did not sign on for services. However, I would definitely recommend him if you are seeking legal advice in this area. He was professional, knowledgeable and prompt with communication.

From the moment I met Nathan, I knew I was in capable hands. Facing false allegations was a nightmare, but Nathan navigated every twist and turn with unwavering dedication and expertise. Their meticulous attention to detail and strategic approach gave me confidence throughout the entire process. Not only did they vigorously defend my innocence, but they also provided invaluable support and reassurance during a difficult time. Thanks to Nathan, justice prevailed, and I can't recommend their services highly enough.

Joe Hudack is simply amazing. I worked with him to set up my family trust and it was painless and effortless.
Then tragedy struck and I needed his help with a probate for my mother's estate. Joe was nothing but professional and helped me navigate the probate courts in the least painful way.
I can't say enough about how professional and responsive Joe is. If/when you need him, he's there for you.

Joseph Hudack represented us against our HOA Board & their Attorney. We are the owners of a Condo in a Huge Condominium Complex in San Diego, CA. He wiped the floor with our HOA's Attorney & left her utterly speechless on every issue. Joseph is so well versed on ALL CURRENT CALIFORNIA HOA Regulations, & he proved they were in violation of our rights & they were forced to drop all allocations against us. WE WON!!! If you want to WIN - then you must choose this Lawyer!

Knowledgeable in his area of expertise; I needed a full package of estate planning to take care of my wife and kids should anything happen to me.

I also had him take care of the trust for my mothers estate to follow with her wishes, even going the extra effort to accommodate a certain counties difficult requirements

Having John Tiedt & Paul Molinaro as my lawyers was a very positive experience due to the fact I did not have to worry about anything in the past 2 years. John and Paul are extremely knowledgeable (Paul being a past doctor helped immensely with my case). Their timely and empathetic communication skills were thorough and reliable. I had total confidence in their abilities and can't recommend them enough.

John represented me in a medical malpractice case. John had a background defending medical malpractice cases, so he brought a unique perspective to the table. From day one, he was very clear about how the process would work and surprisingly accurate about timelines and other estimates. We eventually reached a fair settlement that I was pleased with. John kept in constant contact and always made clear what was needed and when it was needed. The process is never fast and easy, but John made it as painless as possible.

I contacted Kelly to help me with a neighbor dispute where I was being harassed by my neighbors almost every other day for over a year. I started getting physically ill, and it was getting worse by the day. I don’t know where I would be if she did not intervene and stop the harassment. She gave me clear advice, acted quickly and achieved excellent results. I owe her much more than I could ever repay. I got my life back, my peace and joy too. She is smart, straightforward, trustworthy, hard working, compassionate, and a wonderful advocate. I highly recommend her.

Attorney Jay helped me out with my injury case a couple months ago. I called around a couple of places and most took my name and number and I couldn't talk to a lawyer. My friend recommended Jay and I called his number and he picked up and talked to me about my case for a long time and helped me with all the questions I had. Extremely pleased with the results of my case and I'm very pleased with the level of service. Thank you so much Jay!

I was asked by a friend (not internet savvy) to help search for some legal advice, so I turned to yelp to filter out the top rated lawyers to cut down on call time.
Aventus was the second on the list that I had called and ended up being the last since I didn't need to call on any others. They genuinely listened to the scenario and gave some sound feedback. I setup an appointment so they could talk directly in detail with my friend. I'm happy that Aventus helped my friend get things resolved quickly, and my call list short! Their 5 star review is well deserved!

What a great group of guys. Jay and Jonathan really took care of me during my accident process. I got rear ended SO HARD that my car stopped working, it was immobile, and i was in a lot of back pain. The person that rear ended me also didnt even have insurance! These guys really helped me feel at ease that everything will be taken care of and I was compensated for my time and medical bills that followed taking care of my injuries. Its nice having someone to take care of process for you so you can just go see the right physicians to get back to normal healthy living and you didnt have to spend hours on the phone with insurance companies, back and forth, stuck in limbo, not knowing if your bills will be covered or not. A+ for these guys! Thank you!

I Was with this law office for about a year, almost two when Chris Carter voluntarily signed off on my case due to my inability to make higher payments than what I was at the time paying, of $100.00 a month. I paid all I could manage financially, since he allowed via the judge to order that I pay my child's full private school tuition. The day he signed off on my case, Chris told me specifically that I could leave, "there's no court today." Which resulted in the judge ordering me to pay the ex back $400.00 and up to a total of close to $14,000.00 for criminal attorney fees and the crooked, court ordered monitor that my P.I. Caught breaking the rules of supervised visitation and carrying on a relationship. Chris should've fought harder in court for my child and I. Mr. Carter could've told the judge that we didn't want supervised visitation lifted, but that the judge look at the P.I. Evidence against the NCP (non custodial parent/respondent) and the crooked, court ordered visitation supervisor, but he did not. The money I've been ordered by the court to pay the ex, could've gone to paying Mr. Carter however, I'm now only able to afford a lesser payment than what I had been paying him initially as a result. Mr. Carter's office stopped sending me statements for payments and I had so much going on at that time that I'd forget to make a payment, he ended up suing me for around $7,000 - $8,000, he won, because the judgement was made in my absence, I was at work during the hearing. I'm thankful to Chris Carter for the best thing he ever did for my case, which was to divorce the ex and I.

I Retained Mr. Carter after interviewing (2) other family law attorney's. I found Mr. Carter to be extremely knowledgeable and thorough in his explanation of my concerns for my legal needs. Through the duration of my case he was punctual and quick in responding to me calls, and questions. I was very thankful for the kindness his staff always extended to me during this very trying time as well as being extremely efficient and prompt.
I highly recommend this law firm for any of your legal needs.

I am just now wrapping up a 4 year grueling divorce case. I had previous council that came highly recommended and had a matching fee schedule. Within a very short time I had burned through $10,000 of fees and had nothing in the way of results to show for it. After a short period of going it alone I was forced to retain council once again. I retained Chris Carter and I am very glad that I did.
Chris is a regular guy that is very plain spoken and will tell you what you need to hear rather than what you would like to hear. He represents his clients aggressively. He does not hesitate to show a little emotion in the court room when necessary. His knowledge of the of both Family and Civil law were invaluable in my situation. He quite literally made opposing council look foolish in court by correcting their novice interpretation of the law.
The bottom line is simple. When you are shopping for an attorney you need a few basic things.
Knowledge/Experience - He is a second generation attorney. It's been his whole life!
Communication - Plain English without all the BS.
Financially Efficient - You get results for what you pay.
Proven Success - Plain and simple, Chris wins.
I had the attorney with the plush office and all the bells and whistles. They took my money and were offended when I questioned their effectiveness and results. I would much rather have the second generation attorney working out of the same office building that his father built 40 plus years ago. Chris is regular guy that gets you the results you want at a fair price because he doesn't waste your fees on all the frills.
Lastly, and I cannot over state this, you will feel like a member of his family. He takes you and the case personally. He feels your pain and gets just as frustrated as you do. In a tough case you want a competent attorney that feels the same gravity as you.

I endured a horrible car accident & John was so patient with me. He was excellent at explaining the process in a way I could understand. You can't beat the personal attention compared to dealing with a big firm. He knows the law, is persistent, & was very diligent on working on my case. John is a GREAT, HONEST, ATTORNEY & I recommend him.

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.
