I highly highly highly recommend Jack Rubin of the Rooth Law Firm. He represented my mom in a personal injury case after a car accident where the other driver was at fault (under the influence). He took care of everything in a very thorough, professional, supportive, and timely way with quick, amazing results. It was such a comfort to us as she was going through the recovery process. Thanks again, Jack!

If I could give 10 stars I would! Robert and his associate Jack Rubin were so helpful with my mother's nursing home fall/negligence case. I was referred to Robert by a friend of mine and I'm so grateful for the referral. The day of my mom's fall I called Robert unbeknownst to me that he was on vacation with his family. I left a message for him and within minutes Robert had called me back and the first thing he asked was is my mom ok and how she was doing. Robert and his associates bring back that human touch that is missing nowadays. He explained everything step by step as to how things would progress and kept me informed the entire time. I was extremely happy with the outcome of the case and extremely thankful for Robert's expertise. I hope that I will never have to use their services again, but if I do ...The Rooth Law Firm is at the top of my list.

I enjoyed work with Cryus Hosseini. Things took longer than expected. But We had a relationship where I felt like I was talking to someone I had known for a long time. He was very professional and made sure I understood the process. I would recommend him to a friend or family member

Great communication, great attention to details, and very professional. Everything that I needed was completed. Cyrus didn't make me feel like a number he was very caring and made me feel like I was his most important client. After the case he called and checked on me and that showed excellent support and understanding of my situation. Cyrus listened to all my concerns, asked great questions, gave specifics to my case and he was completely honest about my situation. He listened to my needs and came up with very effective strategies. Cyrus made sure my kids received a good payout for child support and offered to assist me if my ex-husband refuses to pay. I would hire and keep in contact with Cyrus. Excellent lawyer he works in silence but presents loudly and effectively.

an is incredibly knowledgeable, professional and personable. He was clear and honest with his assessments and provided a high level of expertise. Ian delivered all information to me throughout my complex case in terms I could easily understand and was always available to me whenever I reached out to him... I was never left “out of the loop”.
Ian was always respectful and empathetic towards me (I was quite emotional on many occasions); he and his staff were phenomenal at meeting my many needs and went the extra mile to ensure that they were met.
My case was resolved in my favor just yesterday (1/7/20); Ian Hoffenberg provided me with absolutely excellent legal advice and representation... I am very appreciative and thankful for his assistance through my legal journey.

Ian is one of the very rare attorneys that ALWAYS puts the interest of his client ahead of anything else. I can write for days about Ian's character and commitment to perfection. He is the most honest attorney I have ever met.

Like a previous client of Ian's who wrote about an injustice that occurred to them. I spoke to three lawyers that said I had nothing and another couple that wouldn't call back. Then I spoke to Ian. He promised me nothing, but told me his plan. It worked and it never went to litigation.
Stop looking you found the guy!

I highly recommend The Froum Law Offices. I was referred to them by a colleague when my brother, who lived in Chicago, passed. The entire staff is professional and responsive, from Ted down to the support staff. As an attorney in Massachusetts with a law practice management business myself, it is clear that Ted built his practice with a "client-centric" focus in mind. Wishing the circumstances were better, it has been a pleasure to get to know Ted and his staff.

I worked with Dan on an operating agreement for a real estate LLC. It was all new and a bit intimidating to me but he made me feel comfortable and explained everything I didn't understand. I feel like Dan partners with me to go beyond my obvious questions and dig into things I may not have considered.

Neda has assisted me with two real estate transactions. The first was unsuccessful. The seller’s attorney was incredibly unprofessional, but Neda dealt with the situation with utmost professionalism. The second was successful and I love my new home, but the seller’s attorney and the title company were both difficult. Neda handled each with tenacity and finesse. In communication with me she assured me that, while frustrating, nothing was too far out of the ordinary in the world of real estate closings. She made me laugh and helped me keep my anxiety in check. All of this for fees that are extremely reasonable! Could not recommend more strongly.

Ian helped us with a complicated housing court case. The house was ready to be demolished based on a judge's court order but he was able to stay the order and help us ultimately clear all violations and get the order removed so that the house was never demolished. Ian is very knowledgeable with the real estate court case law and would recommend him to anyone looking for an expert with these type of tricky situations.

I was wrongfully terminated from the residency training and sought legal help. Google led me to him as he offered a free phone consultation. He appeared to be caring and attentive to details at the beginning. He talked with me multiple times during the day and gained my trust. The next day, I hired him for 350$ per hour and paid a $3000.00 retainer. He sent some messages to the University Lawyer; I transferred him all my documents. Afterward, he went to the passive stage. He did not hold his promises about developing a plan of action in a given time, did not share the documents sent by the university lawyer on time, and started getting rude and threatening with "If you do not back off, I withdrew. my attorney services.", "Go elsewhere if you can find an attorney who can spend your undivided attention," "Your case is not a priority as you convey," and "I will be absent another week because I have ongoing another trial." - I requested him to leave me alone then. He did not answer my questions. Eventually, he sent me an invoice there. He stated he had already used up everything - 3K, and I still owe him $80. Unfortunately, I don't recommend him. Please be careful.

My decision to retain Barney Cohen was one of the best work-related decisions I have ever made. Mr. Cohen is an experienced, compassionate, and effective attorney.
During our interactions, I often found myself feeling as I do when I consult another medical specialist. We spoke the same language. I knew the important details, my questions all had thoughtful answers, and the relationship was grounded in trust and confidentiality.
I once believed that if I ever needed legal representation it would feel scary and horrible. I was wrong; it felt really good. I had doubts about what was happening in my workplace, so I reached out for advice. I suddenly understood the words “to retain counsel.” I found someone who understood what I was going through, and who could look at my situation objectively, then advise me. Mr. Cohen as an attorney, and a lawyer, but for me, he was truly a wise and experienced Counselor.
Although Mr. Cohen helped me with things like contracts and finances, my rights as a physician, I found that our interactions really went to the very marrow of my practice. I was in a place where I was worried and confused. I found myself on the phone with him describing facts – which he asked for – but also talking about my emotions. I expressed what it was to be disappointed in my workplace. And instead of redirecting me, or interrupting me, he really listened.
Mr. Cohen has obviously been working with physicians for his entire career. He cares about doctors, and he has a passion for what we do. He is good at his job, but has a great “bedside manner.” He was insightful and understanding, but also decisive and focused.
From the moment I retained him, everything suddenly became easier. I was unexpectedly empowered by the process.
As far as the brass tacks, everything was done and more. There were multiple logistics that I had not foreseen, that I hadn’t even imagined. But he just took care of everything. He was available 24-7. He told me on more than one occasion that he understands doctors have all kinds of hours, that he is always available. And he was.
The last—and perhaps most important— lesson I learned is that you don’t need an attorney only when you’re cornered. You can reach out for somebody just for counsel. They can guide you through turbulent waters. This is what specialists are for. We doctors all depend on one another for guidance—like spokes on a compass. Mr. Cohen is another one of these compass points.
Thank you so much, Barney, for taking a difficult and confusing circumstance and turning it into a real success for me. Obtaining your services felt like such a healthy decision. Instead of feeling lessened by a challenging experience, I feel, wiser, stronger. You took a turbulent and rocky time and turned it into something very easy. Your counsel was truly a gift.

I want to share that I had made a payment of more than $83,000 to Barry Schultz, which was more than 25% of my past-due benefits. His law office charged me an hourly rate of $911 for the 92 hours of work he did. We had initially agreed upon an amount of $7,450 as EAJA fees a year earlier. Unfortunately, Mr. Schultz took advantage of my situation as a disabled ex-union worker with several physical disabilities. Even though there are laws in place to prevent such situations, they are not always effective in protecting clients. In my experience, I have yet to come across a lawyer who I can trust.

The lawyer that I was originally using to get benefits did not seem to be that aggressive. When I switched to the lawyers at Marvin and Associates, it was like night and day. I got results, and a hearing right away. My original lawyer was working in an office by himself, where as with Marvin and Associates there are many lawyers working as a team. My lawyer’s name was Barry Schultz, definitely I would recommend him. Kudos.

She represented my Lim during a deposition of a heinous attorney that was using the deposition not for discovery but with respondents “f you” money to abuse and harass the petitioner. She was very assertive and defended her client. She did not hesitate. Allowed everything to proceed and objected when she needed to. So very grateful for her help.

Hired this attorney to defend us and after two years nothing was done. Not even depositions. My company and I lost every step of the way and the sad thing is we were the ones that got burned from our client in the first place. hence the litigation. He is extremely incompetent when it comes to business law and like quite a few attorneys he is only concerned about billing. As of todays date I have yet to receive my file from him after numerous requests and to top it all off he files a request to withdrawal and leaves my company with no paperwork and un prepared for upcoming hearings. We are in the process of filing a compliant with the state bar...

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.
