Christian is the BEST attorney! He provided me a clear explanation of my case which made it less stressful in the beginning. He is understanding and supportive. There was no problem reaching him at any time of the day. He was transparent since the day I met him and that’s an important factor when choosing the right attorney. He will make sure you have everything you need even before the judge will ask for it. He made me feel ready at every hearing. He has plenty of experience at what he does. He will fight for you every step of the way. I definitely recommend him! You will not regret it one bit. He deserves more than a 5 stars with the effort he has put into my case. Thank you for your time and service, Christian. It was a pleasure working with you.

Christian is the best fit for you if you are looking for a criminal defense attorney. The prosecutor bullied me 12!!! courts simply because I had a public defender. I was facing a lot of trouble, but an acquaintance recommended him. Christian's strategic recommendation turned the tide in my case. He studied the case and said that my case was 100% winnable. I trusted him, and this is the result. Today, I was cleared of all charges. Thank you so much, Christian. I will recommend you to anyone who is in trouble.

I was told several months ago that it would take three months for the pay out it has now been way over that time and I still have not received anything every call I make to my attorney he never wants to answer and when he does he says he's still waiting for a response from certain appointments which is not true because they all responded already , interesting that attorneys can take a bigger percentage out of the settlement the longer they have it in their hands do not come to mvp accident attorneys!!

My experience with Mortensen & Reinheimer PC goes back 15 years when my mother had tragically passed. Tamsen had walked me through the entire probate process and she did so with a high level of compassion which was a big plus. The team assigned to me was always very professional and always kept me updated. I can’t say enough about this law corporation and how much they assisted me during my time of need.
Fast forward to today, I am going through a situation that requires information from the original filing. But the problem is, the documents I had, have since been destroyed. Fortunately, Mortensen & Reinheimer PC was able to produce the information I needed and all within a matter of minutes. Once again, this law team came through in a huge way. Thank you so much!
P.S. My family loves getting your Christmas cards every year! :-)

I cannot imagine anyone better than Diane to help you through this process. Not only is she an exceptional attorney but she is an extraordinary human being. You can just feel how passionate she is about what she does. She cares for you and for those who love you, because when someone is going through a process like this, it affects the entire family.

I feel lucky as I have Lawyer Bass for my case. It was a major case with potential huge consequences. I was desperate but Lawyer Bass always reach out to me, discuss and explain steps that could help. With her patience, expertises and connections, everything became easier and brighter everyday. I finally have a result that’s far beyond expectations. I can’t say thank enough for all she had helped me. Lawyer Bass is the first lawyer I would recommend for anyone who want the best attorney who actually do the job. Thank again Lawyer Bass.

I'm an attorney myself, but I don't practice family law or draft postnuptial agreements, so I hired Maxwell Hills to prepare a postnup for me. The experience was pleasant and relatively easy, despite having a somewhat complex asset situation on my end and needing some customized terms regarding a new business that my husband and I were in the process of buying. Max was kind, efficient, and reasonably priced, and I'm very happy with the work he did. I definitely recommend him.

I highly recommend Laura Hassan and the entire team at Madison Law. Laura represented me in my Divorce and oI was absolutely pleased with the outcome of my settlement. The entire team worked so hard for me, we were running against the clock at times and they burned the midnight oil to ensure my documents and statements represented my best interests. Throughout the process, I felt safe, comfortable and most importantly respected. My divorce was complex and involved forensic accountants. The team took my case head on after I parted ways with an attorney who had been negligent. My case was settled within six months of my retaining Madison Law. I would use this Law firm again without hesitation.

Laura Hassan
Navigating a challenging custody, property, and support dispute, I had the privilege of being represented by Laura, an exceptional family law attorney. From our initial consultation, she demonstrated a profound understanding of the legal landscape, and a genuine commitment to my case. Her strategic expertise and unwavering support were instrumental in securing a favorable outcome, particularly in the custody matters that held paramount importance to me.
Laura’s professionalism is matched by her compassionate approach. She took the time to listen, understand my concerns, and tailor her representation to my unique needs. Her guidance provided clarity during a tumultuous time, and her dedication ensured that my family’s best interests were always at the forefront.
Although I had to discontinue her services due to financial constraints, I remain deeply grateful for her contributions. I wholeheartedly recommend Laura to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, empathetic, and tenacious advocate in family law.

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.
