I can’t say enough good things about Nazario and Parente! They guided me and my husband through selling one home and buying another, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Tara is not just a great lawyer—she is kind, personable, and so easy to work with. Tara really took the time to understand what we needed and knew exactly when to push things forward and when to step back and let things happen naturally.
Any time I had a question (and I had a lot!), Tara (and Thales) were always available with clear, thoughtful answers. Their attention to detail and ability to navigate tricky situations made what could have been a stressful process feel so much easier.
Yes, in New Jersey, you *can* buy or sell a home without a lawyer—but, why would you when you could lawyers like Nazario and Parente in your corner? I’d recommend them to anyone!

I cannot express how grateful I am for the incredible support and expertise we received from Fetkey & Petty and their team. Mr. Fetkey handled my son’s case with unmatched professionalism, deep knowledge of the law, and an unwavering dedication to achieving the best outcome. His ability to navigate the complexities of juvenile law in New Jersey was remarkable.
Before finding Fetkey & Petty, we had another lawyer from Staten Island who completely dropped the ball on my son’s case. Feeling frustrated and hopeless, a friend recommended Fetkey & Petty to us, and it turned out to be the best thing that could have happened. From the moment we connected with their office, we knew we were in good hands.
Mr. Fetkey took the time to explain every step of the process to us, ensuring that we felt informed and reassured along the way. Thanks to his tireless efforts, we achieved the best possible result for my son, and for that, I will always be thankful.
I also want to give special recognition to Maria from their staff—she is simply amazing! Maria was compassionate, attentive, and always available to address our concerns. Her kindness and exceptional organizational skills made such a difference in easing the stress during this process.
If you’re looking for a legal team that genuinely cares and works tirelessly for their clients, I wholeheartedly recommend Fetkey & Petty. Mr. Fetkey and his team are an incredible group of people who deliver exceptional results.

The receptionist is amazing.. the lawyer on the other hand has been a terrible experience. My closing date has been pushed back more then twice. My wife and I ask over and over again if they need us to help to push things along just to be ignored in the email thread. No one is communicating or giving us answers into why and when the actual closing will be (yes still in the process of dealing with these people) we are 1st time sellers and I would not suggest these lawyers .

Stay away from Frank Shamy! This guy is a overcharge, does not deliver.
He represented me in Jan in New Brunswick for a criminal case. Went to consultation, very nice person. But after I retained him, he never returned my calls again.
Yells at you for asking questions, does not tell you what he is going to do in court. Everything is taken care of by his secretary.
First appearance, he always comes in late (his office is across the court). I went inside court, he found me sitting inside court, no prior meeting that morning. He is the worst.
I called him the night before second appearance, he forgot my court date!!!
He ruined my case, stay away from him.

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.
