Volin Employment has been invaluable to me as a small business owner. Rich created our employment agreements, reviewed my business contract and provides invaluable advice when needed. He is positive, professional and helps make complex processes understandable. In addition, he is enjoyable and easy to talk with. I'd highly recommend working with Volin Employment Law.

I highly recommend Richard Volin. In my career I have had the opportunity to work with many employment lawyers. Richard is one of the very best. He is smart and engaged, has an excellent knowledge of employment law, and unlike many professionals, does not hesitate to bring in additional resources when needed. His client advocacy is strong, but not offensive. As a result, I believe he achieves better overall results in part because he is skilled at standing his ground with other attorneys without creating counterproductive animosity. I believe that Richard’s unique combination of tenacity, knowledge, and interpersonal skills yields excellent results, and I would not hesitate to work with him again.

I cannot say enough good things about Mr. Zach Miller and his law firm! From the very beginning, Mr. Miller demonstrated exceptional professionalism, dedication, and expertise in handling my case. From the start, Mr. Miller took the time to understand my situation and was relentless in pursuing a fair resolution. His expert negotiation skills secured a settlement that I am extremely happy with, and throughout the entire process, I felt truly taken care of. He took the time to understand every detail, kept me informed at every step, and worked tirelessly to secure the settlement I needed. What truly stood out was his responsiveness and ability to explain the legal process in a way that made me feel confident and supported throughout. His strategic approach and unwavering commitment to achieving the best possible outcome resulted in a settlement that exceeded my expectations. If you’re looking for an attorney who genuinely cares about their clients and delivers outstanding results, I highly recommend Mr. Miller and his team.

I'm a new client of Dirk's and he's been exceptional thus far. Despite a busy caseload, he's demonstrated focus and dedication in his support of our needs, has demonstrated his experience and wisdom in formulating and executing on a legal strategy, while managing our expectations throughout. He's also kind and honest, which may be par for the course in this space, but to me is always worth mentioning, because it's something I don't take for granted.

This allows our business to move forward expeditiously while also keeping legal fees reasonable.

We were satisfied with Mr. Hasan's services. He answered all of our questions thoroughly and provided us with a detailed list of everything we would need. He did an excellent job filling out our paperwork and reviewing our documentation. He provided prompt responses to our questions and phone messages. He also kept on top of our case, making sure to ask for any items we missed or additional documents. We had no problems with immigration and were able to successfully submit our documentation. He did not set false expectations and was very clear and honest about the entire immigration process. He provided us with a clear timeline and explained to us thoroughly the different responses that we might receive. He also explained ahead of time, how any situations that could arise would be handled. In my case, I had just married my American Husband and needed permission to continue living in the United States. With Mr. Hasan's help I was able to apply for and receive my greencard. He also reminded me about other deadlines that followed. Thanks to Mr. Hasan on my way to eventual citizenship. He helped us out so much. We have already recommended him to some of our friends. We definitely recommend Mr. Hasan and his services. I believe he is one of the few honest lawyers around. Going into the process I had heard horror stories about bad experiences, but Mr. Hasan made us feel comfortable and confident about our case and situation.

After handling my own estate arrangements & will, I called on Richard to review and then handle my interests in the settlement of my Mom's estate. I am SO thankful that I did. Somewhat unusual arrangements complicated by naive executors and shady real estate brokers -- that took quite a bit of legwork to work-out -- were superbly resolved by Richard. Richard's calm demeanor & knowledgeable explanations coupled with sharp insights resulted in successful resolution of a situation that could have easily spun out of control. His willingness to go the 'extra mile', with support from an excellent staff, and his updates allowed me to shed the worry I was experiencing, and feel confident that my interests were well-represented. Even potential adversaries in this whole experience were complimentary of Richard's work! I recommend Mr. Nguyen without hesitation for those involved with estate settlements as well as real estate transactions. I believe his services would be particularly beneficial to those preparing for the inevitabilities of estate arrangements, whether their own or a loved one.

Richard advised me on a complicated property and court procedural matter for which there was no clear or obvious answer... he took all my questions seriously, researched his answers thoroughly and often on his own time late at night, and despite a busy schedule was always responsive and informed. Having worked with many more costly but less valuable lawyers before him, I wish I'd met Richard earlier.

I don’t write reviews but I had to. I do not recommend this law firm as my case was neglected and I lost 4 years of my processing time. Ms. Dahal gave all my paperwork to a paralegal based in California and never took care of anything herself. I only got her emails about online session she does advising about the immigration and advertising her law firm. That was her main focus it seems, not her clients. Being a lawyer, how can you make Typos to such important documents. My employer name was spelled incorrectly. My RFE were also notified very last minute. They added unnecessary information to my document that I came to know now and didn’t even review the documents carefully. As a Nepali, I don’t like undermining other Nepali especially a woman but I had to warn others about this firm. There are better firms!

Mr. Huh is very professional. One of the biggest challenges in leadership is listening. Mr. Huh listens well and takes the time necessary to understand each concern. He is very knowledgeable and his demeanor during trial is calm and collective. There is no doubt that he has much trial experience by how he speaks and fights for your needs in a court room. He is also honest and up front with you on what you may or may not be able to accomplish under the law and he will help tailor your expectations. I am no expert in pricing, but for the matters handled in this case, i would say he is fair and reasonable.

Our family was fraudulently foreclosed on in the state of VA where the non-judicial laws are so confusing and impossible to appeal I was mostly brushed off, even mislead by other lawyers. Mr Huh was patient and gave an impressive breadth of knowledge on a field he humbly stated was outside of his practice. It was this explanation of the law that gave me some much needed breathing room during a difficult time.

Attorney Huh assisted our family with a personal injury case that occurred late last year. He was more than willing to take on our case when other attorney's were uncertain it would be worth taking on. He was knowledgeable and guided us every step of the way in regards to ensuring that we would get compensated fairly for the injury. Our case involved Medicare and would easily have become a hassle if it weren't for Attorney Huh and his team. He took the time to make sure that we appealed when we needed to and it was worth it. We would definitely hire Attorney Huh again.

We discussed a probate situation where my brother had recently passed. He agreed to take my case and provide me with all the necessary paperwork to close the probate process. Unfortunately, after several attempts to contact to Sam, when he DID respond, he said he was only a coach, and that was it. So when I approached him with questions about my case, he kept responding vaguely, "I'm your coach." After several attempts to reach some understanding, I realized I needed to go with a real lawyer to remedy the situation in a timely manner. Best of luck.

I use Sam as my "go-to" attorney. While I have only been with him a short time his counsel is excellent and his referrals were as well. Time will tell but so far I am happy with him.

Sam wrote our wills, sent them to us, but then didn't answer calls or did not return calls when we wanted to sign and file them.

You can expect this lawyer to not keep in touch and to help your spouse instead of representing you, the client. Very creepy man and horrendous attorney.

I want to commend Whiteford, Taylor & Preston for being a full-service firm that could handle all of my business needs. While I first worked with an attorney in their Falls Church, VA office, I found I needed additional legal services and also worked with attorneys in WTP's Baltimore & Richmond offices. The scope of work covered a large tenant bankruptcy, property management, related court filings, and also new tenant lease negotiations. In all cases, I found their attorneys to be responsible and attentive to my multiple and diverse business needs. Thank you.

Having managed over 250 community associations in Northern Virginia, I have had the opportunity to work with Whiteford on a number of occasions with various clients for 12 years. Their staff is courteous, knowledge and professional and their attorneys can be counted on both day and night to help with emergent situations and problem solving. The high level of communication, attention to detail and honestly provided throughout the organization is a differentiator.

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:

  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.
