In spring of 2024, I reached out to Tiffany Poole in regards to legal advice related to finances. I was impressed with her explanation of the legal options available to me and the particular situation I was facing at the time. She was exceptionally friendly and it was immediately obvious her experience was extensive, which served to elevate my confidence she had the exact type of legal expertise I was looking for. During the process I was contacted by Mrs. Poole and members of her team with consistent updates. Supporting documents, forms, etc. were sent my way routinely and any questions I had along the way were answered immediately. Communications were always friendly, respectful and most importantly; easily understood. Their professional and confident approach to my situation turned what could have been an extremely stressful time of my life into a manageable and worry free experience.

In my first work with Jim, his detailed knowledge of the patent process enabled us to get our patent issued after it had been rejected and stalled while we were using another (bigger) firm. Since then we have worked with him patent-related litigation and use Jim for all of our IP-related work.

I used AVVO to find Adam and read all of his reviews. Everyone spoke very highly of his results. I had been shopping around for an attorney who would take on a civil suit matter for my small business and all of the other attorneys seemed to have little interest or seemed to speak in a manner where it appeared my situation was pointless. Adam listened to my circumstances related to my potential case and took off like a rocket to resolve the issue. He was professional, efficient, and available for my business needs. He was able to provide results that were beyond my expectations. I am grateful to have had this experience with him and look forward to future business ventures with him.

I hired Adam because my insurance company, which was the same company that insured the party responsible for the flooding of my condominium, refused to pay for damages. Adam was always professional, very responsive (always on top of things & returned all communications promptly). Adam is very knowledgeable regarding the laws applicable to my case; I was quite comfortable relying on his expertise. Mr. Wasserman was able to negotiate a reasonable settlement without going to court. I am so grateful to have found Adam Wasserman & I highly recommend him for your legal needs.

I hired Mr. Ferry in a collection matter about a year ago and although the outcome was not as I would have liked due to circumstances outside his control, I was impressed from day one with Mr. Ferry's approach and professionalism. He had a clear sense of the steps that needed to be taken in my case, identified potential pitfalls, outlined cost implications for continued litigation outside his area of expertise, and proved to be a strong sounding board when deciding whether to continue pursuing the case. He was instrumental in identifying another attorney outside his own firm with expertise in the area that I needed, continued to work with this attorney following, and made me feel perfectly comfortable conferring with him when things became confusing or I felt as though focus was being lost on my core objectives. I was an out-of-state client and have yet to meet Mr. Ferry in person. I can say that I have great trust in him and his judgement. I am grateful for all he has done with respect to my case and recommend him highly. Overall, an incredibly decent person and a very capable attorney.

This review is a pleasure to draft and will only highlight a fraction of the respect and admiration that Joe has demonstrated during our three year business engagement. I and a partner hired Joe after being highly recommended from another law DE law firm. Without this sounding like a simplified description of our interactions, he's a very easy and comforting attorney to interface with. He's always fully prepared and efficient in his approach when discussing any of the elements that are needed to prevail. Joe combines the ability to strategize the ultimate objective by piecing together the series of facts and legal facets that wind thru any complicated filing, trail preperation and courtroom success. Joe offers the opportunity to feel confident that each stage of litigation and negioation is being handled at the highest professional level. He's made a very complicated legal case flow smoothly while some former attorney's make relatively simple cases into convoluted messes. The greatest compliment in business is a repeat customer and I'm a lifetime supporter of Joe's legal work and equally important, the class he bring's to the legal field as a whole.

I retained Joseph over an eight-month period to handle the litigation on a reverse triangular stock valuation. I found Joseph to be very legally competent, attentive, and sensitive to my budget needs. It was a highly emotional and frustrating experience but Joseph navigated us through all of the legal issues and we obtained the best settlement that was legally possible. I think that Joseph was diplomatically candid about the legal merits of our case and was careful to let me know what our real chances were for success from the beginning so that I did not pursue any unwise strategies. He did not sugarcoat the issues but I always found him to be optimistic in pursuing the best outcome for our interest. I found him to be very careful to control the legal expenses that we would incur, which I very much appreciated. I also think that he was good at just listening to my occasional venting as I ran into repeated frustrations caused by the legal complications of our case. I would highly recommend him for corporate litigation matters.

We were the plaintiffs against a very deep-pocketed set of VC firms (these would be household names among the tech community), who we alleged misappropriated funds when a technology company we co-founded was sold. Joe was referred to us and upon mutual consideration agreed to take the case on contingency. The case took a couple of years to wind through the legal system given the behavior of the defendants. We eventually obtained a favorable (mediated) settlement. He earned his keep, never lost his composure, worked through challenging legal and business matters, and was not put off by technical issues (though these were few). I would work with Joe again if ever in that unfortunate situation. But I would never start a company with those VC firms again.

I really like Carl, both personally and professionally. He understands the legal process and the impact it has on litigants. In that regard, his clients are well prepared for court appearances and the challenges the opposing party's counsel will present. Carl has sufficient family law litigation experience to do a risk-benefit analysis prior to litigation/settlement. His projections, based on my experience, were generally accurate. Carl was able to negotiate a generous settlement on my behalf. I would highly recommend him to anyone with an actionable issue in Family Court.

I rely on Carl Heckert, for my legal counsel, he earned my trust initially by handling my divorce, property settlement, and child custody proceedings. It was very tough time transitioning into the world of being a divorced, single, working mother of two young children. So, having such an excellent attorney saved me time, money, and the stress of navigating the judicial system completely unaware and extremely afraid. Looking back, I honestly don’t know how I would have made it without Carl looking out for our best interests. His professionalism and precise execution of my legal matters has lead to on-going support in terms of family estate planning for myself and my mother. I highly recommend Carl Heckert to anyone that needs trustworthy legal counsel and representation. I have learned a great lesson, life has many ups and downs however if you fail to plan then you most assuredly plan to fail. Great legal counsel has made a huge difference. If there is a next time, Carl will be there from the beginning and draft a pre-nuptial agreement while crossing all T’s and dotting the I’s at the engagement party.

March 05, 2016 was a day I will never forget. I was a passenger in our family car, when suddenly we were hit by another car. It wasn't long I realized I would need legal help. I researched Attorneys, and called a few. When I called Mr. Carey's law firm, I liked that they put the client first, Miss Carla told me that they would have to check to make sure that there was no conflict of interest with any of their other clients....Wow. I received a call back late that afternoon informing me that they could set up the consultation with Mr. Carey. Our consultation went well and Mr. Carey made me feel at ease. He walked me through everything from beginning to end, I signed the paperwork and Blake Carey was now representing me. I was thoroughly impressed by his knowledge and mannerisms. As time went on and surgery passed, then recovery, Blake kept in touch, giving status reports as well as showing a genuine interest in my well being. Almost fourteen months later we reached a settlement that was fair and equitable to my family and me. Many times I became frustrated and angry and Blake would calmly talk me through those times. I would whole heartedly recommend Blake Carey for any of your legal needs.

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.

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 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:

  1. What is your experience with businesses like mine?
    Find out if the lawyer has handled legal issues for companies in your industry.
  2. What services do you offer?
    Ensure the lawyer can meet all your business's legal needs, from contract drafting to dispute resolution.
  3. 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.
  4. How do you handle conflicts of interest?
    Ask how the lawyer ensures there is no conflict in representing your business.
  5. Can you provide references from other business clients?
    Speaking with past clients will give you an idea of the lawyer's expertise and professionalism.
  6. 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.
