I understand that I was not their only client . This was to follow up on information given to me in January. I would still recommend this law firm to anyone. Thank you do everything you did for me.

We recently had the absolute privilege of hiring Jeffrey Herzog's law firm to handle my dear mother's estate and sticky homestead situation amongst family.
Attorney Jeff Herzog and Attorney Todd Dean were extremely professional, knowledgeable, experienced, men of integrity, who we trusted implicitly with our case, as they represented us well. Their entire staff was knowledgeable, extremely kind hearted and made us feel so welcomed. Thank you Vickey, Kim, Paula and entire staff as we appreciate all of you. We'd recommend this law firm to everyone we know as we were highly pleased with their service. May God bless all of you.

Julie is a first rate attorney. She guided me through the process of incorporating my business from a sole proprietorship to an S-Corporation - registering my firm, articles of incorporation, obtaining company seal, and how to set up my company books. She reviews my professional services contracts to ensure that terms are fair, reasonable, and recommends protective clauses.
Julie helped me navigate my legal options for pursuing payment from a client who refused to pay me for my business services on a change order. She will give you the good, the bad and the ugly so you know what you are getting into. She will provide available options for legal representation to best suit your needs. She is responsive and a pleasure to work with, putting my legal questions into language I can understand.

Excellent attorney! Mr. Arendall recently handled my construction dispute. He was always professional, left no stone unturned, was dedicated to resolving our dispute in the most advantageous way, never failing to consider litigation cost verses benefit. He kept me updated on a near daily basis. I highly recommend Mr. Arendall.

Mr. Arendall and the firm Englander & Fischer have been representing myself and my companies for almost 4 years. Due to the housing crisis, and the major collapse in the building industry, I, like most other builder/developers, found ourselves in situations with banks that did not want to "ride out the storm" or renegotiate.
From the first day I met Mr. Arendall, he was always on top of the issues and kept me fully and immediately informed of all issues, something you do not find with many lawyers. Throughout the entire legal process, Mr. Arendall showed his great negotiation skills and his commitment to me, resulting in amicable settlements which resulted in keeping the matters from proceeding in court.
I would highly recommend Mr. Arendall and his firm without hesitation, which I already have done.

Mr. Corsmeier provides excellent legal advice and is incredibly knowledgeable in an area of law that can be extremely difficult. He represents and is on retainer for the law firm I work for and has been an invaluable asset. I recently attended one of his seminars about Florida Bar advertising rules and regulations. He has an excellent way of explaining the information in a way that a non-attorney can understand.

Joseph Corsmeier Esq is the definition of professionalism. He has been my on call ethics counsel for many years and has provided expert advice to keep my practice operating at the highest ethical level throughout our attorney client relationship. He is prompt, intelligent, personable, and insightful, and is always available to answer my questions. I cannot begin to express the gratitude and admiration that I have for Mr. Corsmeier as an indispensable asset that allows me to focus on my client's needs while he acts as the on call resource for all ethical and rules issues that confront the practice.
I give this attorney my highest and best recommendation and I encourage every attorney reading this to retain his services immediately to insure that the highest and best ethical standards are maintained at your firm.

We spoke to Mr. Smith and asked for his assistance with a small matter. He promised to take care of it in a matter of a couple of days and requested we pay his fee in advance, which we did. We never received any work product, Mr. Smith has gone completely silent and we have not received a refund despite multiple requests. This sums up our experience with this firm.

The only characteristic that Chad Orsatti has that may equal his very high intelligence is his absolutely stellar ethical standards!
Chad is personable, quick on his feet, has an excellent support staff in Cindi. Chad is polite, efficent, & returns calls in record time despite very business practice.
It is with absolutely zero reservation that I attest to Chad's excellence in every category.
I have dealt with countless attorneys over the years and I found many of them to be professionally satisfactory. Chad blows the doors off of all of them.

I am not going to waste your time with a sob story, In my opinion, it is best to just use another company.
This rating is not rectifiable, so please don't ask again.
Rest assured, I am a legitimate customer that paid Mr. Levine for his services. They can play the semantics game and say that I am not their "client", but again, I absolutely used his services, thus, I am leaving a legitimate review of my personal experience, to suggest otherwise is misleading to say the least.
Mr. Levine did contact me to rectify this situation but we are at an impasse.
He is suggesting that clarification of a mediation agreement that he authored is considered legal advice, and I disagree.
It is important for mediators to be aware of the line between clarification and advice, especially during mediation.
He seemed to understand this point during mediation.
As I understand it, as a mediator, he was never allowed to provide legal advice but he was, and still is, allowed to clarify what is written in the mediation agreement that he authored.

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.
