Moya Document Services was recommended to me by a friend from work. I needed to have a Living Trust set up for me and my husband as well as for my mom. As his website states, they offer preparation of legal documents but they are not attorneys. The fees are more affordable.
We initially set up an appointment in person and we brought my mom with us to his office in Los Alamitos. The office is across the street from Los Alamitos Elementary school and it's on the second floor. Robert made it easy for all of us to understand and explained some of the terms and what things meant. After your initial appointment, we stayed in communication via email and had one Zoom call with him. When we were ready we set up another in-person appointment to notarize our documents. After that we were all set to submit our form to the County Recorder. The process was very easy, Robert offered great customer service and we would recommend anyone to him.

I would highly recommend Monica and her team for all immigration needs. They went above and beyond to answer any questions and concerns I had. Going through the process was very fast and smooth. She is an excellent communicator, she is very accessible, and responds timely to any email you send. I will definitely be using her firm for any future immigration needs.

The first phone call was perfect. David made me feel at ease with his knowledge and very professional, calm and friendly demeanor. So I asked for a consultation, without hesitation I got an appointment. It was great! Together with above mentioned and an added: "not being rushed out of the office", but being listened to and getting great advise and information, it is safe to say; David will be our Lawyer from now on and I will refer him to anyone who needs a great Lawyer.

7-5-17: I so value David Tran. I'd been in a car accident; and had contacted my local lawyers' referral service who'd referred me to Mr. Tran. Where the insurance co. of the car who'd hit me had been attempting, via street mail, to place high demands on me (I'd foolishly assumed they had gone to my insurance co. first, with their demands.) - Mr. Tran informed me that I need to be certain my ins. co. is aware of, and responding to, what the other ins. co. is requesting of: me. He adds, I pay my insurance co. to, among other things, deal with the opposite ins. co. -What a great, big, huge burden Mr. Tran so easily, and kindly, lifts from my shoulders. He's a pro. If I could give him not a 5, but a 10-star rating, I would.

We are a home remodeling company in the South Bay.
We recently had an issue with our bond that had us at risk of losing our standing and we were facing CSLB citations.
David Tran and his team handled our issue with care and quickly resolved the issue to our satisfaction.
The seriousness of the problem was considerable and David Tran steered us in the best direction to resolve the issue. Thanks to them.
They have given us direction to keep us away from issues & problems with clients as well as employees and subcontractors.
The next task I am assigning to this Top Notch crew is to review my paperwork. They have already pointed out a deficiency or two in my contract.
If you are looking for a team to represent your interests in the construction field you can be rest assured that you are dealing with the best available when you hire David Tran and his team at Tran & Company Prosperous Law Group.

Pandora was a wealth of knowledge about the law and how it applied to our issue. She was able to cut our fine in half and save us thousands of dollars over the future years in other costs. I would hire her again without hesitation.

Thank you for your attention.

If I can give a minus I will. If you are looking to hire a lawyer who does not have backbone and bend backward to please the other side this is the one for you.
I recently hired this lawyer because of a dispute with my corporate partner. Mr Jacob Bach did a very bad job in representing me. He bended backward to please the other side on most of the demand. It became so bad that I need to change lawyer. Since then the situation has turned 360 degree. I need to share this with others because it caused me a very deep pain while wasting a lot money . It just unbelievable how such lawyer even exists.

He is not qualified or up to date on current laws and new regulations. He does not return phone calls or emails in a timely manner. He has to be told he is missing important documents. He is sloppy. Because of his incompetence, we had fines and fees. He should be disbarred. He causes conflict within families. I could see through him and would never have hired him. I had no say in the matter.

Stan did a great job for me mediating a very involved situation that could have ended up in trial which would have been very costly to me. He is a great mediating attorney and very positive, and trustworthy.

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.
