Attorney Laliberty was thorough in her work on the case in spite of its complexities. She is a careful, compassionate listener and a strong advocate; her passion for her work and respect for her clients always shone through.
Most importantly though, Attorney Laliberty's knowledge of the law is extensive. She truly left no stone unturned in the case!
I highly recommend Attorney Laliberty to those seeking representation for family or landlord/tenant related legal matters.

in September 2022 I was diagnosed with cancer. By July 2023 I found myself over whelmed with credit card and hospital bills. I contacted several attorneys.

He got us through some very difficult times, I will be ever for grateful to him. I highly recommend Mark to represent all my relatives and friends.

Could not be happier with my decision to work with Ken, or his firm. What started as something extremely simple, turned into a complex matter, due to working with an expired real estate trust, with multiple trustees and beneficiaries. Ken was outstanding in his handling of this matter, came up with a sound resolution, I could not have been more pleased. This legal matter was not for just any attorney. He has years of experience, and that really paid off.

Paul has ignored me for months at a time, has made sure he has done his best to not contact anyone of my witnesses or professional providers. Has even gone as far as to block my number. He lost my case the first time around because he botched everything by trying to go over everything two minutes before walking through the court room doors. He put me and my family on the back burner as if we don't matter. He asked for a meeting with one of my providers and chose not to show up for the meeting he requested.

Paul was hired as my attorney during a very troubling time in my life. Over the course of time working with Paul on my case, I felt more that Paul was my friend than some attorney I hired to work a case. Paul went out of his way, with time, resources and even lending a sympathetic ear when needed to make me feel like everything would work out in the end. I cannot recommend this man enough, when you hire Paul you don't just get some suit who pretends to care when the money dries up, you get a man who makes you feel like he'll be there for you through thick and thin.

She told me that she charges $225/hr because she works out of her home and therefore does not need to charge the rates that the expensive firms from Boston charge. Two letters without stepping out of her home and no case law to draw from in her research of the case. A total of 11.5 hours, total cost: $2,475.00 and that was with 1 hour free (case review). In hindsight I think I will choose one of the expensive Boston attorneys I worked with over the past few months, they are smarter and get things done quickly. Even at the $375.00/hr they still would have been a lot less expensive. When I discussed this particular case with one of the Boston attorneys he cited case law right off the top of his head; no charge.

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.
