Mr. Pearlman worked with us under extreme time constraints to insure that we closed a public merger on time. His fees were very reasonable, and other attorneys who were associated with the transaction were impressed with the professionalism of his work. We completely endorse this attorney for both standards of work and responsiveness.

Time as well as effort consumed and exhausted me in my search for the answer to a question I had regarding employers and the forms of compensation the employer can legally afford those persons they employ. Although I had a very strong belief I was correct that an employer was not permitted to pay employees less than minimum wage and not pay overtime at time and a half I was constantly denied a strate forward answer when questioning law firms and requesting help to recover what I was certain were wages I had earned. Many of the so called"top" law firms I presented my issue to were nothing short of afraid to contest my issue against such a large corporation. I was beginning to believe that maybe i was wrong, maybe there was no David for the Goliath I was faced with, that was until I happened across Paul and his team of incredibly bright, talented, and more important gutsy attorneys. For the first time in years someone really listened to what I thought was an incredible injustice being visited upon the hard working women and men of this multi million dollar "Goliath". It took weeks of talking with the firm's attorneys and weeks of research by Paul and his office before they agreed to give me the legal help I desperately sought for years. In the end after a very lengthy federal trial Paul and the outstanding group of attorneys at his firm slayed the hell out of Goliath!!! Thanks for believing in the forgotten few but more important having the balls to fight the Goliaths of this world.

Usually when you seek an attorney it is seldom for happy reasons. The last thing you want is an attorney who won't fight for you or doesn't understand your circumstances. Victoria has helped me so much in all of my legal issues and takes pride and careful consideration into all she does. If you're looking for an attorney that sees you and your issue as a whole and not just a number then she's the attorney for you. She's knowledgeable and fights for her client. When I felt trapped due to my legal issue she was the helping hand through it all and tried to solve it before it snowballed further. I definitely recommend her to anyone who wants a quality attorney.

I hired steven for a banktuptcy case. I have not had much need for an attorney in my life so I have no one to compare him to. I found him to be very intelligent quite easy to talk to and most importantly easy to get a hold of. All my calls were answered by him and I never had to leave a message and wait for a return phone call. That's probably one of the most important things to me. I was worried about not being located close to his office but that wound up being no problem at all anybody who's going through a bankruptcy I would highly recommend Steven Serra

Kimberly was a pleasure to work with. She was very patient and explained the closing process in layman's terms to us. I had a hard time understanding the process with a somewhat unusual commission due to Redfin and the new realtor commission law. Kimberly explained it multiple times until I "got it." She and her associates are meticulous and truly look out for their clients. I highly recommend the Kimberly Abrams for the legal aspect of real estate.

Vincent Law was able to successfully defend me in my landlord-tenant dispute. After vacating my unit and leaving the premises in impeccable condition, the landlord had decided not to follow the statue and not return my security deposit. With the help of Arthur Vincent I was able to receive my full security deposit and legal fees. Mr. Vincent was a reassuring presence throughout the legal proceedings and made sure that the law was followed. Based on my experience, I would certainly recommend Vincent Law to others who may need legal assistance in similar matters.

A good friend of mine recently had the pleasure of working with Rossen Law Firm, specifically with Attorney Susan Lawson, and cannot recommend them highly enough. From the very first consultation, the team was incredibly professional, attentive, and genuinely caring about the case. They took the time to explain every detail meticulously and remained extremely thorough throughout the process. The attorneys are not only knowledgeable but also compassionate, making a challenging situation much more manageable. Their dedication to achieving the best outcome was evident and they value clients every step of the way.

I have felt emotionally torn to bits after years of being dragged through the legal system by my Sociopathic Narcissistic ex who was doing everything to avoid paying court ordered support and using the legal system to continuously abuse me. I changed lawyers and I am so very glad I did. Tracy comes through for me time after time like nobody else can, summing up the situation in minutes, pulling on different areas of the law with a speed and focus that thrills my heart. Finally, somebody gets it! She can cut through years of bull in a flash. This mixture of brilliance, heart and experience is uncanny. Watching her defend me and fight for me made me feel loved. The other side was shaking in their lying boots. The way she can turn the tables and use the opposition's grounds against them is nothing short of genius. Honestly! At this godawful time with a very small support system, it was great to have a knowledgeable, skillful, even cunning advocate. She was that sister, that mother, that friend that we can only wish for. She is honest. She does not mince words. She has a big, fierce and loving heart and a mind that can hold vast amounts of information. Can't say enough. She came to me through a referral. My only regret is that I hadn't found her sooner. She's the attorney I dreamed of and got. She loves what she does and she is darn near the best there is. Thank you Tracy. Much love.

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.
