I've been told I pay too much attention to details, so when it came to planning my estate, I was dreading the process. But, let me tell you, they were a dream come true. They matched my attention to detail every step of the way. We went over every aspect of my estate plan with a fine-tooth comb. I left feeling confident and relieved, knowing nothing was overlooked.

I found Brian Pascale online, my facebook and Instagram pages had been hacked and I needed my social media to publicize my new film. Brian was so friendly and helpful and in the early stage of the recovery he actually directed me how to write the first letter to Meta. I wanted to hire him and Brain said “I want to save you this money, you can write this letter.” Who has ever heard a lawyer say those words?
Brian Pascale is caring and friendly and during the entire process it was delightful to talk to him. And the best part ? Brian got me both pages back right on the schedule he had outlined for me in the beginning of the process!
In this world right now it sometimes feels like there is nothing you can count on, but I know that I can count on Brian Pascale.

To Whom It May Concern: 7/11/19
It is with great pleasure that would like to praise Robert Mehran Jr. for a multitude of reasons. First of all, I own 3 businesses and am 70 years of age. Through my working life I have had a few lawyers for various things. I met Robert about 9 months ago at a network luncheon. We sat next to each other and had a brief conversation and then agreed to have a 1 on 1 meeting to discuss how we could help each other in our businesses. During lunch I found that Robert was kind of “special”. He didn’t have the typical lawyer personality that I have been accustomed to, he was different. I could open up and tell him certain things, he seemed to be caring, intelligent, has a love of the law and being an attorney, respectful of his client’s feelings, concerned in being their advocate, etc.
I was very impressed with our conversation and our 2-hour lunch!! Since that initial meeting 9 months ago I have changed attorneys and never looked back or was sorry for my decision.
If you are thinking about changing your attorney and do not give Robert Mehran, Jr, a call you, you are only hurting yourself.

Aside from being an all round nice guy, Rob has the ability to review a scenario from all angles to propose a viable solution.
He is fair, competent, responsive and a bulldog when he needs to be. I would feel comfortable running any business scenario by him for his input and expertise. I would not want to be opposing counsel in a litigation matter, that is for sure!

Peter Baron is a top notch lawyer. My personal injury case was handled meticulously and professionally. Peter’s hard work got me a sizable settlement for my injuries, against a very difficult car insurance company. Peter was always compassionate and understanding regarding my injuries, and fought for my justice to no avail. Thanks to Peter, I have recovered funds for all the time off from work and medical expenses, as well as pain and suffering. I highly recommend the Law offices of Peter Baron should you fall victim to personal injury, he will fight for your rights and get compensation you deserve.

Mr. Pewarski represented me in a serious Podiatric Malpractice case involving the loss of a limb of one of my patients. He was tremendously prepared, knew the Podiatric and Infectious Disease Medicine of the case as well as a doctor and his cross examination of the other side's experts was absolutely amazing. He stayed in close daily contact during the preparation leading up to the trial, and met multiple times with me until I was completely prepared to be a witness. I would recommend Mr. Pewarski to any health care provider who has the misfortune of becoming a defendant in a malpractice lawsuit.

I am very thankful for David J. Barry's services and the outcome of the case. I hired David J. Barry to dispute an unlicensed operator ticket for my 17-year-old son. After he went to court, he was able to resolve my son’s traffic matter with a jaywalking violation instead. This outcome was incredibly helpful because it had no impact on my son’s future license.
David was always patient, understanding, and very quick to resolve the case, which made the entire process much easier for us. While I hope we don’t encounter a situation like this again, if we ever do, I would hire him again without hesitation. Both my son and I are truly grateful for David J. Barry's assistance and the positive resolution of this case.

George and his team are great. Very, very thorough. They worked on our adjustment of status case through the whole process, and I couldn't have asked for a more attentive, professional, and dedicated team. The paralegals answered my millions of questions, over and over again, and they made sure every item in our massive filing was triple-checked. Would highly recommend them.

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.
