David Bower helped me through my child support and custody case. He effectively and efficiently worked with my ex-husband's lawyer to come to a reasonable agreement. He was always prompt with his responses to my concerns, and he provided sound advice. Mr. Bower went above and beyond what he needed to do to help us settle out of court, and I am so grateful. If I ever need legal assistance again, I know who to call.

To Whom It May Concern:
I’ve worked closely with Bryon Prescott for the last ten years and have known him for approximately fifteen years. We initially worked together for a Fortune 100 Company for which he was in-house counsel. During the last 10 years we had almost daily contact where he worked as outside counsel for my company performing the majority of the real estate legal work including virtually every type of real estate transaction imaginable including acquisitions, foreclosures, dispositions, lease transactions, tenant disputes, title claims, auctions, contracts, debt financing, insurance claims, etc. etc. etc. His advice, counsel, expertise, ethics, and professionalism have been above reproach. Byron’s attention to detail and his thorough understanding of the law and the complexity of our transactions provided my company infinite advantages, which resulted in significant economic benefits.
Byron’s negotiating skills are unparalleled and his uncompromising commitment to the success and wellbeing of my company and employees is unmatched. He has the uncanny ability to anticipate the unexpected, which has saved my company countless capital funds as well as mitigated tremendous exposure over the years. He is extremely organized and efficient which allows him to oversee countless transactions at one time. His attention to detail is unmatched. Over the decade, he has represented my company in literally hundreds of sales transactions and several hundreds of lease transactions along with hundreds of other transactions. His breadth of knowledge and expertise were evident in every transaction.
Byron is an excellent attorney and is an even better person. He has the ability to get the best out of all parties in a transaction including not only his client, but also the opposing counsel, which has the effect of defusing confrontational situations and facilitating transactions. Byron is skilled at making deals happen, instead of killing deals, which is instrumental in my business. He knows how to efficiently complete transactions, regardless of how unlikely they may appear or the obstacles encountered as the process unwinds. His integrity and ethics are evident in everything that he does including his work product, negotiations skills, respect for all parties and even in his billings.
Byron is an outstanding attorney as well as an extremely canny, morally upright and ethical man. I know without a doubt that he will not only have the best interest of my company in mind but will also watch out for my best interest. You could not hire a better attorney for your company. Should you have any further questions about Byron, I will be happy to discuss more of his attributes at length.
Sincerely,
Doug

Byron has handled just about all of my real estate transactions work for over five years now, including commercial leases, lease amendments, sales contracts, third-party service agreements, and easement issues. Byron is a seasoned real estate attorney with a client-first attitude and provides prompt service to keep transactions moving along. However, the primary reason I work with him is because of his strong character, integrity, and positive attitude. Byron has become a true friend over the years, he is a pleasure to work with, and he always does his absolute best to represent me and my firm.

Over a 10 year period of time, our family had the responsibility of providing care for my parents who both were suffering with dementia. They required assisted living and eventually a nursing home up until the time of their deaths. Like many, we were not equipped to understand the legalities around protecting their estate. Fortunately, we were referred to Richard and he led us effectively through many months of heart wrenching decisions. Richard was timely in his responses and advice along with showing great compassion for our situation. I remain extremely thankful we found Richard and highly recommend his services to anyone in need.

The independent, hard-working, honest attorney who will listen earnestly and provide excellent legal advice when you need it. Clay is knowledgeable, responsive and worth having on your side.

My business is in Sacramento, CA and David helped me thorugh a nasty litigation process in Texas. After obtaining a summary judgement, the defendant hid assets. David uncovered them and brought that person to his knees despite Texas' laws in favor of people who behave this way. He was the best litigator I have met and I am the largest privately held developer in northern California, having litigated too many suits to count. I wish he would relocate to Sacramento. If you don't hire him, you are not serious about wining your case. He is worth every penny. Feel free to ask David fro my contact information if you want more of a referral from me. No, I am not related to him. I was referred to him by another lawyer.

Dealing with a very difficult custody case and Alexis was very open to educating me on the processes and not getting irritated with me, when I would look up case law and ask questions. She has been very helpful in reminding me of the "Big Picture" when I would lose focus. She worked hard on the case getting results that I needed. I have recommended her to others for services and I can not brag enough about her empathy and exemplary professionalism when dealing with other attorneys and witnesses involved in the case.

Dear Daniel Herrin and Jennifer Cruse,
I want to say a BIG THANK YOU for putting your hard work, extensive knowledge and expertise forth to assist me in my 7-year struggle to hold on to my beloved home. Due to poor advice from previous Chapter 13 attorneys, my house fell back into foreclosure twice since 2012. When Herrin Law filed my Chapter 13 case in 2017, Daniel and Jennifer literally snatched my home out of the jaws of foreclosure. The prior Law Firm representing me dropped the ball and left me and many others hanging with our Chapter 13 cases. Even after Herrin Law got my Chapter 13 protection up and running, my finances remained volatile and unstable, causing me to miss both mortgage and Chapter 13 payments. Any other Law Firm would have been frustrated with me and doubted that I could continue to hold on to my home, but not Herrin Law. Daniel, you, Jennifer, Lisa and the rest of your amazing team continued to treat me with dignity and respect. You never criticized or judged me - you only offered encouraging words and continued to fight for me. Daniel Herrin and Jennifer Cruse were willing to go back to the judge and ask him to continue to give me a chance. Late 2018 was the most recent predicament I was in and it was doubtful that the judge would approve the extreme plan that Daniel and Jennifer devised to help me, but because of their caring nature and passion for the people they represent, the judge approved the plan. I think that is simply amazing! Daniel, I thank you and Jennifer for telling me to apply for a loan modification. The attorneys that handled my previous Chapter 13 cases never told me that was an option. Today (March 6, 2019), you called me Daniel to tell me my loan modification has been approved and I will be able to get out of my Chapter 13 bankruptcy! You negotiated a payment that is very manageable and well within my budget. I had been a two time loser with Chapter 13 bankruptcy, my case was very complicated and no one was interested in taking it on. I will be eternally grateful to the attorney that referred me to Herrin Law. He told me that if anyone could help me it would be Herrin Law. He said, “Daniel Herrin is a smart, honest, caring man, give him a call.” I'm so glad I followed his advice. May God continue to bless this very talented, compassionate law firm. I feel like running down the street and saying if your back is against the wall please give Herrin Law a call!

Silverman helped my father prepare a will, trust and related documents. After my father died, Silverman handled probating the will and helped with estate and trust administration. I can't say enough good things about Silverman and his office. The work was done timely, for a reasonable price and was of the highest quality. I have worked with several lawyers over the years. Silverman is one of the very few who returned calls promptly and took a genuine interest in both my father and me. I can give him my unqualified recommendation.

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.
