Guy Louie was recommended to me by a family friend, and him and his team did not disappoint. Guy represented me for my dissolution of marriage. Throughout the process, he and his team listened and communicated with me very well. His knowledge and hard work shined through, every step of the way. Without Guy Louie representing me, I am confident that I would not of had the outcome in which I did. I recommend Guy for all of your family law needs. Two thumbs up!

I highly recommend Maxwell Louie for anyone in need of a family law attorney. He helped me successfully win my domestic violence restraining order (DVRO) case and resolve ongoing issues with the father of my children. From start to finish, Maxwell was professional, reassuring, and highly attentive to my needs. He frequently checked in with me, ensuring I was fully prepared and informed every step of the way. His dedication and support made a challenging time more manageable, and I’m grateful for his excellent service.

I couldn't be more grateful for the legal representation provided by the Louie and Jimenez LLP office. My family law case was complex and Mr. Max Louie stepped in when another attorney needed to step back due to a personal reason. He was collaborative with my first attorney and added a lot of value as he came to the case. He sought to understand the complexities which included some sensitive immigration issues.
Mr. Louie was dedicated and communicative, even as the timing of the case required work occurred over holidays and weekends. The entire office pitched in and kept things moving.

Mr. Ghaderi assisted me with getting a collection agency who was affecting my credit and harassing me to overturn their hit on my credit and stop calling. I should clarify that this debt was not legit. He explained everything to me and actially made the process fun. I imagined it to be horrible, but all went great!
After the great experience, Mr Ghaderi helped me set up my LLC as well. He's full of information!

I was arrested on a felony charge under a highly questionable legal basis. The charge was reduced to a misdemeanor, but the prosecution continued. Ms. Slone moved to have charges dropped for illegal search and seizure, but the judge refused. Ms. Slone filed an appeal, and the appellate court ruled in our favor. In an unusual circumstance, the three judge panel ruled unanimously. Ms. Slone is professional, yet friendly, and she sure got the job done for me. Highly recommended.

I had the most pleasant and comforting experience when I went for my consultation with Attorney Debra Slone. She was very informative and covered all basis so that I could an informative decision as to what I needed and should do. That is why I hired her to do my Bankruptcy. I had spoken to several Attorneys before but none were as helpful and efficient in meeting my needs as Debra was. She even allowed me to make payment arrangements and also came in on s Sunday afternoon to help me. Her off is very neat, clean and organized. Her staff are very friendly and professional. She is also proficient in many other specialized areas of law in her practice. I would highly recommend Debra Slone for all of your needs when seeking legal representation.

Through the process of my divorce I had a restraining order attached to me, that had been renewed into a permanent restraining order. The renewed R.O. was primarily based on preserving my retirement accounts for my X-wife until an undetermined date when it would eventually be disbursed to her. After the full disbursement of my retirement account to my X wife, my X still refused to release the restraining order against me.
Mr. Jimenez and his team were very organized and methodic in first trying to reach an out of court agreement to release the R.O. with opposing counsel. After my X refused to cooperate, Mr. Jimenez and his team researched the right case law to reference, prepared and filed the brief, and then obtained proper service to my X.
In the courtroom Mr. Jimenez interacted with the judge very clear and concise, resulting in successfully removing the Permanent R.O.
I would use Mr. Jimenez and his team again in the future if needed.

I had a complicated personal injury case. Mr. Jimenez kept me updated every step of the way and was honest about the possible outcome and their attorney fees since the beginning. He wanted to be sure that my wife and I knew how he was going to proceed with the case so that there would be no misunderstanding. He was always reachable by phone when I had a question and prepared me for all court appearances. Even though all court appearances where done by Zoom, I was more comfortable going into his office for the hearings since I wasn't familiar with using Zoom and Mr. Jimenez provided the accommodation. I highly recommend Mr. Jimenez and this law firm. Everyone is kind and very professional.

$500 for a one hour CONSULTATION fee that’s ridiculous that’s unheard of most people give you a free consultation or a very low fee consultation. I understand if that’s her hourly rate but all I needed was to ask one question because I can’t find the answer anywhere else. She obviously doesn’t care very much for people who are unable to pay such an amount just to get a consultation. She’s robbing people that need help charging that much for a consultation
That’s a shady attorney right there

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.
