More often than not, you choose an attorney based on quick and decisive need vs. being able to truly vet them and make sure you're the right fit. I had such an experience and I am happy to say, Peter and Team were precisely what I needed. If you want bold, honest and result-oriented representation, just as it once was, Lubin Austermuehle is your go-to - most especially in consumer arena.

Brad has represented or advised me on the following matters:
- Real estate
- Business formation
- Equity disputes
I've always avoided legal issues because often the stress they cause is just not worth it. But when you're stuck, you're stuck and Brad has proved to be my safety net on multiple occasions: He saved a delayed real estate closing that was mistakenly due to federal security issues. He helped my company incorporate, and resolved an equity dispute within the company. All of that's great but the reason I keep working with Brad is because he's attentive and professional. He takes his time to understand what I'm dealing with and responds with professional advise, even if that means referring me to another attorney.

Mr Sayad did a wonderful job and was very informative when reviewing my case. He did a great job in court and put my mind at ease.
This was for a traffic issue where my car was hit and I was issued a ticket by a police officer who was not present. Mr. Sayad went over all the facts with me, prepared a strategy and everything was to my satisfaction. I will be working with him again.

Brad did an excellent job for me in the sale of my existing residence and purchase of my new residence. There were some complicated issues that could have derailed both deals. However, Brad was very proactive. He performed a full assessment of the legal and other implications surrounding each deal and provided me with extremely valuable advice. The advice provided saved me time, money, and ultimately a lot of stress. I have worked with two other real estate attorneys prior to finding Brad. Brad outperformed my previous attorneys in every way. Excellent experience overall!

I have known Vince Ditommaso for over 15 years. He is a top class action and business lawyer, and a great litigator. He seems to instinctively know what action to take and when! If you have a class action or business question/matter or need a class A litigator Vice is the one you want on your side!

I have known Vince Ditommaso for over 9 years now. He is one of the best attorneys, if not THE best attorney in the Chicagoland area. I met Vince in 2005 shortly after my son's father died. I was referred to him by a friend of the family. During this most difficult time, he was our pillar of strength. Vince represented my son and I in probate court in a very nasty estate battle. I am happy to say that we won the case. We could not have done this without Vince's expertise. He is truly a master in negotiations. He can be tough, yet very savvy. Vince Ditommaso is an expert attorney in many fields. If you want to win your case, hire Vince today!

Vincent is an incredible lawyer. He was easy to talk to and always kept me fully informed. Vincent knows how to get the job done and get the job done right. Without him, I'm not sure my case would have been as successful as it was. I will forever be grateful and honored that Vincent took my case.

If you're looking for a considerate, intelligent, knowledgeable, and completely trustworthy attorney choose Mr. Daniels. Throughout the time I have known him professionally he has always provided me with sound legal advice and with a vast amount of legal and case knowledge. Working through a few different residential real estate contracts (tied to different transactions) with Mr. Daniels allowed myself and my clients to create and execute their best course of action. I will be using Mr. Daniels for all my future legal needs.

I recently contacted Mr. Daniels for legal advice regarding a possible discrimination case, and he was extremely helpful in helping me find out what legal routes to take in my case. We sat down and went over various options and Mr. Daniels filled me in on a number of possibilities regarding my case. He was very knowledgeable, informative, and respectful throughout our entire exchange and also very affordable. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a lawyer in Tucson to consider hiring Mr. Daniels for any legal needs that may arise.

I cannot say enough about the incredible experience I had working with both Denise and Tammy. The level of professionalism, expertise, follow up, and care was second to none. The most astounding aspect of my interaction was the level of care and empathy they provided. Court proceedings are not an enjoyable experience to say the least. My needs were met and resulted in a quick and final closure. Once again I am very grateful I was referred to this incredible team!

My divorce process started January 2023 and was finalized February 2024. From beginning to end and even post divorce, Denise and her staff have been attentive, helpful, understanding and caring. My main concern during the divorce process was making sure my daughter was okay. I was so pleased with the concern Denise also had for the well-being of my daughter.
I would not hesitate to refer Denise Erlich and her team to anyone seeking an attorney to assist in their divorce process/family court issues. They stayed on top of things, communication was top tier and always worked in my best interests with the right amount of assertiveness.

If we could give Michael Biederstadt 100 stars for his excellent legal skills and services, we would. Five will have to do here for him and everyone else in his law practice. Attorney Biederstadt helped us covert our family finances into trusts that will protect our life’s wealth for our children and save them considerably in legal costs and taxes. This was all done at an affordable cost. Along the way, the Biderstadt Law Firm helped educate us about crucial issues in family law, death taxes and estate planning that everyone should know. The most important thing we learned is that even if you have a will, your estate will go through Probate Court, which in Illinois could tie up the estate in court for a year or two, incurring all sorts of attorney’s and other fees along the way. Only a trust can keep your estate out of Probate Court. The Biederstadt Law Firm also provided so many extra services, including a comprehensive, personalized portfolio that includes all essential documents organized in one convenient place. In addition, we were encouraged and enabled to include personal letters, future guidance and video messages to our children in our portfolio, which are advisable, meaningful and fun to do.

I have worked with Mr. Bob Haney on two different occasions this year.

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.
