I had a traffic ticket. If this ticket wasn't thrown out of court, my license could have been suspended and my insurance would have went up. Thanks to Joe's experience, he was able to get it thrown out of court. I will be using his services in the future and would recommend him to others. He is experienced, understanding, patient and easy to work with. I am very thankful for the work he has done for me.

Through my work, I have come into contact with many lawyers who are only working for a paycheck and the bottom line. Brad is an exceptional lawyer who stands out against other lawyers. He creatively uses the law and the given information on hand to create a result that I felt was fair. He helped me to understand the process he was taking and he trained me in the process of what to do in front of a judge. Above all that, his prices and payment options were relaxed and made perfect sense. Warning: after all is done, you'll definitely want to take him out for a beer.

Tony and his associates provided a professional experience and were able to answer all of my questions regarding a noncompete/non-solicitation agreement that I had signed. The response to my initial experience was within a few business hours of my initial email. Tony provided a consultation at a reasonable fee and I didn't feel nickel and dimed like I have with other law firms. Tony answered all of my questions during the consultation and followed the meeting up with a summary email. At this point, I don't believe I need further legal help with this issue, but if I do, I will call Minchella & Associated, LLC and know that they will handle my case in an expeditious and professional manner.

Tony was exceptionally thorough from start to finish, explaining each step of the case and what to expect next.

Tony and his team always had my best interests at heart, and their dedication was evident in every interaction. I would highly recommend their law firm to anyone in need of legal guidance or assistance. I'm very appreciative of everything they did for me over the course of my case. Thank you, Tony & Team!

I cannot speak highly enough of Martin Minnella and the unparalleled skill he demonstrated in handling my case. To provide some context, I was facing my fourth drug charge with a record spanning over 30 years, including past convictions for drug sales and a violation of the CORA act. I was arrested with 180 grams of cocaine and was initially offered a plea deal of 10 years, suspended after 5 to serve with 5 years probation, it was an “Accept or Reject” offer which means "take it or leave it" and go to trial. If I go to trial, I would face the terrifying possibility of a 30-year sentence. Both the prosecution and the judge were unyielding.
That’s when Martin Minnella entered the picture—a seasoned and legendary attorney, known for being the only lawyer in the U.S. to have beaten five murder charges in a row. I have heard the name Martin Minnella throughout my life and that he was one of the best if not the best. I entrusted my case to Marty, and it was the best decision I could have made. On the day of sentencing, I arrived prepared for the worst, wearing black sneakers, a grey sweatsuit, three pairs of socks, and three pairs of boxers, fully expecting to be taken into custody.
But what happened next was nothing short of remarkable. Against all odds, Martin Minnella achieved what seemed impossible: he secured a deal of 10 years suspended with no time to serve and a $5,000 fine. To say this outcome was incredible is an understatement.
Martin Minnella is an absolute force to be reckoned with in the courtroom. His knowledge, strategy, and unwavering commitment to his clients are unmatched. I don’t know of any other attorney who could have delivered the same results. If you need an attorney who will fight tooth and nail for you, Marty is the one to call.
Thank you, Marty, for your extraordinary work. I would recommend him and I do to everyone without hesitation. He truly changes lives!

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.

- 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.
