Eric is an exceptional lawyer and person. He provided great advice through out my deal, helped negotiate issues with the seller, and provided analysis on the risk of each situation. Furthermore, Eric was prompt in his responses and in getting the due diligence and closing docs done in time! Another thing that makes Eric stick out from the rest, is his use of software. Eric utilizes his own portal to store all your documents, invoices and sets up a slack with you to facilitate quick communication. Lastly, Eric’s transparent pricing allowed me to make sure that I know what I was paying for with no surprise fees.
I strongly recommend Eric and his services to anyone who is looking for legal counsel.

Alicia Berry has my trust in matters of the law. Her competence and knowledge of the language is only surpassed by her comfort level in the court setting. My experience with Alicia Berry lasted seven months and there was never a missed dead line for discovery or motions. Alicia Berry deals with the present as well as anticipates the future. I was treated with great respect and felt as though I was her only client. The practice of Law is certainly advanced and enhanced with Alicia Berry involved.
It was most evident she has the respect of fellow attorneys in the halls of the courthouse.
Thorough, competent, hard working, most effective and God fearing are just some of the strong attributes I assign of my dealings with Alicia Berry.

Pat’s large corporation background and post-graduate business education makes her an astute counselor for complex business transactions. She understands the 'why' as well as the 'how' of getting things done. She is also tireless in her attention to details and engagement follow-up. I would recommend her without reservation for corporate, contract, business and real estate matters.

We were involved in a construction contract dispute involving an unlicensed, underqualified, unresponsive and untrustworthy contractor who, among other things, filed a frivalous lien on our project. Fortunately for us, we retained Ms. Foster to handle this situation. She immediately communicated with the contractor's attorney and within weeks the lien was removed and the matter resolved in our favor. Ms. Foster was knowedgeable, aggressive, responsive and properly focused on our case. We would highly recommend her for her great work and results and would not hesitate to use her again if the need arises.

George is and always been very helpful to me on questions I have regarding employee benefit plans. It is challenging working through all of the provisions of the Affordable Care Act. I feel confident in the research and opinions that he has provided me on various scenarios with ACA. He is always very responsive and I will continue to use his firm as a primary resource for my employee benefit legal questions. I happily recommend his services.

I have known George since the early 1990s. He is one of the most honest, conscientious, and extraordinarly competent attorneys I have ever known. George's wealth of experience over the years has provided him with the depth of knowledge he now so skillfully utilizes at the law firm he founded a few years ago nearer his roots in the West. As General Counsel of DigitalBridge, I enlisted George and his firm to prepare the company's Stock Options plan. George did a fantastic job, completing the work on time and at a fraction of the cost of a big firm. George and his law firm are very knowledgeable and thorough yet efficient and reasonably priced. I'll continue to call on him for employee benefits issues over the years to come.

Mr. Bowers took over a business litigation case for my firm over a year ago. He has always been available to us for questions and updates. Speaking with him is similar to speaking with family or a good friend. He is very affordable compared to what we pay in the larger cities. We would not hesitate to consult or retain Gregory C. Bowers should any future legal needs arise.

We spoke to Scott after receiving a disturbing phone call from someone posing as an IRS agent stating that we had committed tax fraud. Scott listened to our concerns and put our fears to rest by informing us that he has had several calls similar to ours recently and that nothing was going to happen. He told us that if we had any further questions to call him. He was professional, friendly and I would refer him to my friends and come to him with any legal issues in the future. Thanks again Scott !!

When it comes to your case, an organized attorney that listens, pays attention to detail, and cares is important. Leann went above the call of duty. She meticulously prepared an eye catching declaration that’s facts blew opposing counsel’s away. My contempt motion was dropped, and the judge moved instead to negotiate a new plan that would work for both parents. I am extremely happy with her services and would recommend her to anyone facing a difficult case.

Ryan Blodgett guided my wife and I through the estate planning process in an organized manner. He carefully explained each step of the process, the purpose of each document that may be included in the estate planning, and helped us determine the scope of the estate planning. He asked pertinent questions, explained what information (and why) he needed from us, and used a checklist to collect the required information to complete the estate planning.
Ryan is detail-oriented, organized, respectful, demonstrates integrity, and delivers on his promises.

“I went to Don Schirm a few years ago to help with my divorce. It was an ugly divorce against a very vindictive person. Don was there every step of the way. He offered not only guidance throughout the divorce proceedings but also listened to me when I just needed to vent. I have reached out several times since then, and he is always willing and able to help. If you need an attorney for a family law matter, please put your faith in him.”

I had Christopher Hoxie as my legal aid appointed attorney and what a huge mess it was. I was not fairly represented at all. He never worked on my case, his legal team would literally never get back to me when it was urgent. I have been dealing with my divorce since 2020 and it is still not over yet because of how slow he works. He never did anything I was told he was going to do even when it was detrimental to my case. His paralegals changed ALL THE TIME and no one would ever tell me. All he cared about was that I wasn't paying him and he is very slow. I'm glad to have him off my case and had to hire a competent lawyer to fairly represent me in court and actually show up to hearings because my last hearing, he wasn't even there. Absolutely ridiculous service. Never hire this law firm ever or you will be absolutely wasting your time.

I hired Christopher on a family law case I had a while back & he did wonders for my case!! I am an extremely satisfied client. He is fierce in the court room. He knows exactly what his client wants & he’s not afraid to tell the judge!! Something I really appreciated about Chris and his law firm is that they would give me a call prior to my court date to remind me of it, even when I didn’t have to be present. I felt like I always was in the loop about my case. After the experience I had with Christopher, I’ve made him my go to. His law office practices a lot of different law so it’s definitely my new go to attorney.

I've used Mr. Miller's services 3 times, and I've been satisfied each time. Mr. Miller helped me with 3 small real estate matters. He gets right into the practical, business issues. He even provided some creative alternatives I hadn't thought of.

I begged for money back after learning that this firm did absolutely nothing for my case. They kept the majority of my retainer and sent me back a box full of the personal matters of another person's case, duplicate copies of my case and letters from opposing counsel begging for Mr. Sperline to stop missing deadlines and comply. Tried contacting Mr. Sperline numerous times to no avail. After I dropped services, the things that I was unfairly billed for months in advance were suddenly filed with the court. NOTE--- AFTER services were cancelled and with no effort on his firms part. I would not recommend in ANY way. Overbilled and under-serviced is an understatement.

Jeff was very good at staying on track with giving legal advice during a very difficult time. His strength was being able to tell you what you need to know and hear instead of what you want to hear. As a mediator he was on top of his game. Mediation can be very challenging when balancing legal advice with the client along with the stresses of the personalities and emotions of the different parties involved.

Mr. Sperline came highly recommended after dissatisfaction with a previous attorney. How refreshing it was to find an attorney that had more concern for the case than for his wallet! I'm certain that his concern for his clients is genuine, and that the investment of his time in each case is out of a sincere desire to do the right thing. He returned calls and emails promptly, gave us the details that we needed to make informed decisions, and gave us his best recommendations. He is an ethical, moral attorney, one to treasure!

I met with Rob in early 2020 , paid a $2000.00 retainer for his help with a legal matter. I received a letter when Covid started saying there would be delays for all clients. This was the last I ever heard from him or his office. I have since called dozens of times for a refund of the remainder of my retainer as the matter I hired him for has become irrelevant in the 3 years that have passed. I have never received a call back. I would just like the retainer returned. I cannot fathom taking money from someone and never providing the service or a return of the money paid. Looking at other reviews, I see I am not alone there are plenty of others who describe similar experiences.

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.
