I have worked with other firm's and was treated like a number instead of a person. I reached out to Wright Injury Law LLC and spoke with Rebecca and she treated me like family. She helped me with every question I had and advised me the best way to head with the needs I had. I would say for anyone and everyone to refer to this firms with any issues you may have.

Mr. Brooks was the attorney my husband and I used to write our wills and he was excellent. The whole process exceed my expectations. He gave useful and sound advice; brought to our attention content I wouldn’t have thought important; and revised our will for us when we made changes at the last minute. This was a great experience and highly recommended.

My husband and I hired Mallary during our recent real estate closing. Mallary and her staff were able to get everything in order for our closing in a short amount of time. She kept in constant contact with us and kept us up to speed on how things were going. Since then, we've hired Mallary for personal injury/automobile accident. She's been informative about what we can expect during the proceedings and given us the best advice on how to handle everything that is involved. Without a doubt we'll be using Mallary again as she can handle all types of our legal needs.

I have used attorney Foltz for real estate. Wills, etc., and found him to be very knowledgable of area and South Carolina law. Trust me there is a difference. When dealing with some one less informed and then engaging this firm you may find times when he will say you can't do that, but it's better to do it right the first time.

I live out of state and needed to find an attorney to help me better assist my elderly parents. Through office consults and telephone conferences Clifford walked us through options thoroughly and with compassion. His efforts have greatly increased my comfort level with challenges we are likely to be facing in the future. This was the best experience I have ever had with a legal professional. His fees were fair, and he genuinely cares about his clients.

I hired David Wells to represent me in my divorce after fourteen years of marriage. He was recommended to me by my co-worker that had complicated custody case. I am beyond pleased with my experience. My case involved finances and custody of my children, and I was unequipped to represent myself. It was also an extremely sensitive and emotional time in my life and David handled this case from beginning to end with what I would consider perfection in every aspect. He is
extremely empathetic. He gave me great advice, stayed on top of things, explained everything very clearly to me, and even dealt with me well when I got emotional. He prioritized my well-being and that of
my children during such a critical time. He knew my finances were limited and he always found a way to curtail my expenses and use my resources wisely. When I had questions, I always dealt directly with him and not assistants or other people from his office. He was firm and kept the opposing council from dragging their feet. With thoughtful and detailed advice and feedback from David and his team, my divorce settlement was beyond what I'd anticipated.
If you want a hard-working, knowledgeable, empathetic, and supportive lawyer then look no further. I will always have a deep appreciation for David and the rest of the Wells firm team for everything they did
to help resolve my case

I would definitely recommend mr.Wells. in my experience a few months ago I found it comforting telling him my story for which I needed help. He listens to your every word. Everyone was friendly and always helpful. If I ever need a lawyer again I would most definitely go to him. I'd give him 10 stars

On April 29th my husband and I drove down from PA to go to closing of our new home in Conway, SC. The experience couldn't have been more unpleasant for my husband's first home buying experience. We didn't get any warm welcome, hello, welcome to South Carolina...NOTHING! We were told to go to the conference room to sign papers and when we were finished Jenn's assistant said, " that's it"! Again...no Congratulations! Gave us our key and said we couldn't move in until the papers went through its proper channels. I mean talk about sad! There was no Southern Hospitality there at all!!! Won't refer them that's for sure!!!

I recently sold my home and the buyers used them. They did not have my check ready the day of closing, and still do not have it the day after closing! They are in no hurry to get it to me and refuse to give me any information. As of writing this, I have no idea when I will get paid for the sale of my home. Tomorrow is a holiday and then it will be the weekend. I have bought and sold multiple homes in the past and have never dealt with this kind of unprofessionalism! There were other issues prior to closing as well, I never received my closing documents ahead of time. Meaning I never saw these documents until the actual closing! It is required by law that HUD closing statements be given to the buyer 3 days prior to closing, but Dusenbury and Clarkson never finished writing up these documents until the evening before closing, and never sent it to my lawyer until the afternoon of the closing. My lawyer even complained about how awful they were to deal with. They are slow, unprofessional and incompetent.

Axelrod and associates have railroaded me, they should’ve seen me in a small claims court for me to receive my money back but because they knew I would win that suit they sued me for more money to bring it to a different court a court where they are probably well known and I’m a nobody! I have proof that Axelrod has lied to me and I have paper proof of that. They hired a lawyer, ballad and watson to try to intimidate me with letters and letters and letters! I’ve been waiting months and months for the court to send me a court date to defend myself, and to receive my money back from someone that who has lied and deceived me during my whole case. Axelrod gave me back half of my money, I wonder why? Just a warning in my opinion do not use Axelrod and associates. They have deceived and lied to me many times, and was very unprofessional to say the least! In my opinion, I would never use this law firm again, unless you want to lose money with no representation, or maybe a little, but not $5000 worth that’s for sure he cost me nothing but heartache and depression, and I have papers to show that he lied to me!!!! i’m looking for anyone that could help me bring this case to justice and Mr. Axelrod and associates! I have no money I had to go to a public defender because he did not return the funds for not representing me correctly, which is malpractice!!! I need help to defend and proceed against this giant monster!!

Ms. Patel of Burr Forman was the outside counsel of our lender
The legal documents that were sent to attorneys contained multiple errors, some conflicting errors in the same document. I am the buyer and sole signer of a commercial property, three incorrect versions of my name, including the wrong spellings and a totally different surname in same document. I have worked with many attorneys in different fields, never seen such errors
How did they not get caught before getting sent out? There was also an issue with documents being delivered on a timely basis, even bring sent the morning of the closing. When my attorneys contacted her about the errors, they were told she was too busy to fix them. Our attorneys had to make the corrections. What should have been 20 - 30 mins turned out to be almost 3 hours. Simply unacceptable. I will never work with any party that requires working with Burr Forman and Ms. Patel.

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.
