My partner had pushed me to call around to some law firms about what happened to me at work. First off D Law were the only ones that called me back from all of the law firms that I called. I guess the other law firms don’t want money? D Law has been speedy and professional. I have been very impressed. They will call you or email you to set up a time for them to ask you questions. And from there, (along with a few documents they need from you), they will let you know if they feel that they/ you have a case. And my lawyer, (Cathe), within the law firm is stellar and very nice. You’re in good hands with this law firm.

I got a DUI and was referred to David Chesley by a colleague who also had a previous case. I must say I am satisfied by the results and it was cheaper than other law offices. Communication was key and I felt like I wasn’t alone in this case. When I got the DUI, I thought my consequences would have been the worst. My lawyer informed me that she will do her best and not to worry. In the end, she delivered and I highly recommend Law Offices of David Chesley.

contacted Anthony about a neighborhood nuisance issue. After the first appointment for which the first thing he did was to charge me a fee (it's okay), we discussed my case and he gave me instructions to document and gather evidence. After sending him everything, he simply stopped answering me, he has disappeared. I understand this was probably not the most exciting case of his career, but he’s also a burbank lawyer and not exactly a rockstar, if you know what I mean. So there is no reason to be that difficult. I find it a bit harsh to be ghosted by a lawyer who has neither the courtesy nor the decency nor the professionalism to clearly refuse a case, but evade and waste everyone's time. This is definitely not an adult behavior.

I am a landlord, and while I usually get along well with my tenants, I had a difficult tenant who caused significant damage to my property (among other things). I consulted with Anthony, and he calmly guided me through a difficult situation. His knowledge of current local real estate laws was very helpful for my issue. His communication was clear, and his recommendations were practical. His office was professional. He replied promptly to any questions I had, and wrote out an important legal document for me in these regards. I am very pleased with his work on my case, and I will certainly hire him again in the future. Thank you, Anthony.

I had the privilege of working with Mr. Henrik Sardarbegian from Sardarbegian Law, and I can’t recommend him enough. In my opinion, attorneys are problem solvers and Henrik solved all of my problems. He has the traits that I personally believe are absolutely necessary for someone to be a great attorney. Henrik is an empathetic listener and truly understands how injuries impact lives. He listened attentively and showed genuine care throughout my case. He is very easy to talk to and calms you down so you can express yourself comfortably and clearly. Furthermore, he was always available to discuss my case and provided regular updates. His transparency made the process stress-free. Henrik goes the extra mile to ensure that no stones are left unturned. His honesty and integrity shine, especially when dealing with big insurance companies. Not only did he secure fantastic results for my case, but the entire interaction was easy and transparent. Mr. Henrik Sardarbegian is an exceptional attorney who fights for his clients with heart and dedication while always being available and upfront. I had heard of many horror stories with personal injury and auto accident attorneys but Henrik is definitely the exact oppositie. I cannot thank him enough and wholeheartedly recommend him.

I had the privilege of working with Mr. Henrik Sardarbegian after a slip-and-fall incident in a store. His legal representation turned a daunting situation into a positive outcome. When I slipped due to an invisible water spill, I felt lost and frustrated. After visiting the emergency room and then seeing my primary care physician, I reached out to one of the firms (that shall remain nameless) who advertises on billboards and radio. I spoke to one of their "case managers" but was ultimately turned down by them. I thought I’d have to deal with the store and their insurance all alone. Thankfully, a friend recommended Mr. Sardarbegian. He immediately put my mind at ease during the free consultation. Mr. Sardarbegian’s attention to detail impressed me. He explained every aspect of my case, from potential challenges to medical considerations. His thoroughness allowed me to understand the process fully. Despite the store’s insurance initially resisting, Mr. Sardarbegian persisted. Eventually, through mediation, he resolved the matter. Not only did he secure coverage for my medical expenses, but he also fought for compensation for the pain and suffering I endured. What truly sets Mr. Sardarbegian apart is his genuine care. He is very compassionate and caring. His honesty and personable approach won my heart. From A to Z, he ensured I felt supported. In summary, Henrik Sardarbegian is the attorney you want by your side. His dedication, empathy, and unwavering commitment make him exceptional. I’m grateful for his expertise and the positive resolution he achieved for me.

I had the privilege of working with Mr. Henrik Sardarbegian on an auto accident case, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. From start to finish, he demonstrated unwavering dedication, exceptional legal expertise, and genuine care for us. 1. Tenacity in Investigating Liability: When the other side refused to admit fault, Mr. Sardarbegian took proactive steps. He personally visited businesses in the vicinity of the accident, gathering evidence from video surveillance. His thorough investigation proved beyond doubt that the other party was responsible. 2. Fighting for Our Rights: Even when the other side’s insurance company attempted to downplay our injuries, Mr. Sardarbegian fought tirelessly. His persistence led to a successful outcome—securing the other side’s policy limit. His commitment to justice is commendable. 3. Honesty and Diligence: Mr. Sardarbegian’s transparency and honesty set him apart. He communicated openly, ensuring we understood every step of the legal process. His diligence in handling our case was evident throughout. 4. A True Advocate: Unlike larger law firms that shy away from liability disputes, Mr. Sardarbegian is a true fighter. He genuinely cares about his clients’ well-being and will go to bat for them, no matter the odds. In summary, Henrik Sardarbegian is not just an attorney; he’s an advocate who stood by us. If you’re seeking legal representation, Mr. Sardarbegian is the attorney you want in your corner.

I hired her in 2016 to handle a case for me at the time I felt that she was doing an admiral job, boy did I find out I was sleeping with the enemy. In September 2017 I asked her in a e-mail to cc me any and all communication with opposing counsel which she agreed to do, never once did she send me any correspondence between the parties, then while I was going thru mediation she informed me that I needed to take out a loan for 3 grand to pay for the session I mind u I haven’t worked since 2016, but I did what was asked of me, come to find out thru opposing counsel I should have never taken out a loan for the mediation in fact he told me they pay for half and if I would have settled they would have paid it all, but the story becomes more wild once I confronted her about it she told me that the mediation costed 2750 so I asked her where’s the other 250 never got a response. That brings me today I settled a case on 8/3/18 with Farmers with Ms Roca as counsel, I had been trying to contact Ms Roca for about 3 weeks to ascertain when would the check be available never once did I get a reply, so I went to opposing counsel and boy did I find out some things first off I was told that not only has she been given the check she also cashed it and where not talking days but weeks. So I went to we’re her office is located at we work in Pasadena I checked in and had a seat to wait to speak with her,after about 15 min security and the maintenance personal came up to me and stated that I was not allowed on the property any longer I mind you I have becoming there for almost two yrs and was just there last Friday to retrieve my file that was thrown in a box missing all kinds of documents that are pertinent to my case. I plan on filing a complaint with the bar and other legal remedies that I am afforded

I was involved in an accident and in a lot of pain. I contacted Ms. Roca and she was able to help me find a specialist who would treat me while the case was still pending. She not only got all of my medical bills taken care of, but also money for the time I missed from work! I honestly don't know what I would have done without her! She was always available to answer any questions I had, and took care of all the calls from the insurance company so I wouldn't have to worry about it. Overall A++ experience!

Unfortunately I had my worst experience with Ani Avetisyan for my divorce case. She is NOT an experienced attorney as she claims and charges for. Not only I lost all my rights with her, I was being overcharged by Ani Avetisyan; for writing hundred of pages to RFO's (as an essay fees) and charging over 20 hours to prepare a declaration, and talking too much. Yet she couldn't even make the judge hear her. After firing her, she still came to my hearings sat for full day, I believe she doesn't have lots of clients since she can invest all her day siting in the courthouse for a full day for someone (case) who she doesn't even represent. Her office in the Granda Hills was her house garage converted to office. Afterwards I went to LACBA Arbitration with her, And I won the case and confirmed that she did overcharged me with huge amount of $17,552 within two and a half months. She charged me before taking my case; now she's facing a violation of business and Professions code 6148 beside the other violations. She purposely called me to talk on the phone for hours, yet she writes hundred of pages just to charge you. Also she disclosed my private case documents including my settlement to the arbitrator. Still today she didn't refund me my overcharged fees and she's trying to vacate the LACBA's judgment. This shows how unethical attorney she is. It's so sad that I trusted her yet she takes an advantage of my vulnerable situation. Be Very Cautious before you hire her!!

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.
