Mr. Silverman and his team were excellent. I recently leased a 2024 Jeep 4xe, 2 weeks and 500 miles into my lease the vehicle needed to be towed to the dealership and was in the shop for over 6 weeks. His team responded immediately and gave me the direction I needed through that stretch. They were very professional and responsive and I received a nice settlement for all the inconveniences this caused my family. I would highly recommend using this firm if you are in need of Lemon Law or Breach of warranty issues. Thank you for all your help.

My realtor recommended Michael, as she has worked with him in the past and had great things to say. I called Michael that day and the next morning I was sitting in his office going over paperwork. Michael was very easy to contact when I had any questions, and he always knew where we were in the process and what I was to expect next. His response time to emails and calls felt almost immediate.
From start to finish Michael made purchasing my first piece of NYC real estate feel relaxed and uncomplicated.
I highly recommend Michael Iakovou.

I got my dismissal for a ticket that i reveived while i was riding my motorcycle between lanes. A ticket received 5 years ago. Court outcome has been postponed for 5 years in a row and it finally got dismissed. Miss Ortiz and the whole firm are just specialist in TVB matters.

I got two tickets and the court date was rescheduled dozen of times over the period of 5 years. During that time, not once a representative from the office gave me attitude or did not return my phone call. Highly professional people work in that office and today I received the notice that both of my tickets were dismissed. I am so grateful for all the support during the time and so relieved. Thank you so much for your help! I truly appreciate it!

Earlier in the year I had been laid off from my job and I had been on a work visa. My life was going well I’d been in a stable relationship with my girlfriend at the time. We saw layoffs hit my company earlier and thought that we didnt want to be separated.
The worse scenario came true and I was laid off after the first wave. I was distraught trying everything to stay together and we decided we wanted to be together and so we got married. We consulted Angela after many recommendations. We had a lot of meetings at the start, many of the meetings my wife and I went into with plenty anxiety, but Angela would always be calming and explaining various aspects of the immigration process with brevity, sympathy and a genuine interest in helping us.
She explained the various processes and requirements when applying for our i-485, i-765, i-130 and had great advice. She calmed a lot of our anxiety and made it a smooth process.
We sent all our available evidence, affidavits and information once we were ready to her office in New York (we’re in California), she received and processed them real quick. Within a couple of months since our first consultation our application was sent (she also encouraged us to take our time and feel ready prior to all this so it was much appreciated).
Relatively not too long after we received my green card 3 months in, my wife and I were ecstatic and now I get to stay here with her and many of the other people I've made a connection with.
Angela was just as enthusiastic in helping and seeing us through until the receipt of the card. Prior to this we had worked with some of my ex employers immigration lawyers who were nice and good, however Angela has raised my bar for a lawyer. She was easy to talk to, extremely well informed and very patient. A great person and lawyer.
Thank you sincerely Angela,
N&N

My experience with Kramer, Dunleavy & Ratchik, PLLC was breathtaking. I was run over by a car in Harlem while crossing a crosswalk with the right of way. The guy driving was 100% at fault. The state bar of NY enthusiastically recommend I set up a consultation with them. So I had a 5 minute call with his paralegal, Joanne O’Connell, it was nice. She wanted me to send my neurologist medical records to review and the detailed police report. Made it happen. Then, all communication ceased. No email was replied to thereafter. The only reason I can come up with is that Kramer, Dunleavy & Ratchik genuinely believe there is no merit in finding justice for pedestrians who wrongfully get run over by a car in the state of New York left with long-term injuries.
So I found an actual attorney who got to work, now everything is good.
This concludes my final thoughts on KD&R for now. I’m extremely honored to have been in Joanne’s presence. She and KD&R are extraordinary human beings - but has no follow through and all that talk lead to nothing.
I think they’re great. Keep up the work.

Their expertise and dedication resulted in a favorable settlement. I appreciated how Lawyer Kenneth explained complex legal terms in a way I could understand and made me feel confident in our case. Thanks to their hard work, I received a settlement that covered my medical expenses and more. I highly recommend Kerner & Kerner Law Firm to anyone in need of a dedicated and knowledgeable accident law firm.”

I want to express my deepest gratitude to Stevan McCarthy and Monica Hue for their incredible support in helping me get my case dismissed after being wrongfully accused. I highly recommend Stevan and Monica for their exceptional legal expertise and dedication. Stevan took on my case and, within less than three months, successfully got it dismissed. His knowledge of the law and strategic approach were evident throughout the process. They kept me informed at every step, providing clear explanations and realistic expectations. Not only did they handle my case with utmost professionalism, but they also alleviated my family's concerns from across the country in California. They made me feel supported and reassured throughout the entire process. I am forever indebted to these two outstanding lawyers. If you're in need of skilled and efficient legal representation, I highly recommend Stephen Mccarthy and his team.

My experience with Zackary Meyer was incredible. He made me feel comfortable in explaining my litigation matter that had been going on for over 5 years. You can’t imagine the frustration I’ve been dealing with for that long period of time. I explained my side of the story as he reviewed my case and he understood exactly what was going on and agreed to take my case. He also explained to me he didn’t offer any promises or guarantee on the outcome but he said he would do his very best.
When this firm offers to do their best “look out” because that is exactly what you will get. On my trial date at court, I thought I would be nervous but I wasn’t because a very polite young man by the named Ali Jaffery partner of Zackery Meyers Firm attended. He presented the facts in a very dignified manner. The facts were proven for this trail and the lawsuit against me were dismissed at its entirety. I am so grateful for this firm. If you are ever in need for a law firm that gives a client 100%, I highly recommend Sutton Sacks and Meyers. The expertise of this firm is one that I am so grateful for and will be long lived.
Again, Kudos to Zackary Meyer and Ali Jaffery.

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.

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.
