William is an extremely well respected and skilled litigator. In the initial meeting with my company, William was able to quickly grasp the business objectives and identify the legal issues in the dispute. After hiring him, he was able to bring a successful and cost-effective resolution to our dispute after just two depositions. William is a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him to handle any dispute from small, pre-litigation matters to large, bet-the-company litigation.

I know that you can not, at this time, hire him as your attorney, as he is court appointed. But if you are lucky enough to get him, he is spot on with case law. He will research your case diligently, file motions and appeals; and if you are lucky, he will win your appeal if lost in court. He is an honest attorney, who will always answer you truthfully.

Upon the retirement of our long term previous business council and family attorney it was with absolute recommendation from him that we retained Joe as our representative. From our initial introduction Joe and his team have been approachable, attentive and responsive.
Apart from being a gentleman, Joe is a veteran advocate, formidable litigator and proven trial counsellor. Joe has a professional, knowledgeable and caring hands on team supporting him with all the skill sets found in large multi-office practices. I can’t express enough how satisfying it’s been working with Joe and his Practice Manager Katherine. I’m rest assured that between Joe and Katherine our matters whether simple or complex are handled professionally and with extreme knowledge and care. I, without hesitation highly recommend this firm.

I once hired Woody Clermont to represent me in a personal injury case where a store employee injured me while mixing paint. Mr. Clermont was extremely diligent and knowledgeable as he worked up the case, and began to work on getting me a good settlement. I also have sought his legal advice in reference to some criminal matters that arose as well, and his advice helped with a not guilty verdict in one case, and a dismissal in the other. I happily recommend him.

I hired Mr. Cohen after my first in-depth consultation with him. Having sent him some information prior to our meeting, I was impressed with the thoroughness and amount of research he had done prior to our first appointment. Ira is realistic so does not always telling you just what you want to hear while reminding you that he makes recommendations but you, the client, make the decisions. He has been imaginative, creative and dogged in his attempts to help me. His billing has been both reasonable and compassionate! My problems are complicated, his explanations of alternatives we can try, more than a little helpful. He has been dependable, courteous and shown enormous personal concern and he respects my input and treats me as though I am intelligent - attributes I have seldom found in my dealings with most attorneys. I will continue to work with, and depend on, him until all that we are trying to accomplish is finally adjudicated.

Four years ago, shortly after the death of our daughter, Tatum Holloway, in Miami, caused by a drunk, hit-and-run driver, we engaged and employed the services of Stewart Tilghman Fox Bianchi & Cain and Dax Bello. We live in South Africa so the US legal system was totally foreign to us. Dax went way beyond the expected service and, at great cost and effort, taking the time to hold our hands and our hearts in both the criminal and civil aspects of the matter. The process has now been finalized and we walk away feeling that as a family, we couldn’t have been served better. If Dax agrees to take your case, you will be very lucky! You can expect him to deeply care for you throughout the process, while trying to extract the highest recovery possible from your unique situation. He doesn’t over promise and under deliver, but will keep you grounded in a clear sense of reality. At the end of the process our family has great respect and trust for this great man who has served our family and the system of justice in Miami so very well. Thank you Dax.

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.
