Meticulous, detail oriented and an absolute professional. Eric Masson is all this and more. I have worked with Eric as the buyer’s attorney, when I sold my practice and then he represented me as my attorney for a practice purchase, and I feel it’s rare to say that on both instances it was an absolute pleasure to work with someone who is so incredibly professional and impeccable in what he does. I would without doubt highly recommend Eric to everyone whom I know. He truly deserves a huge shoutout. Thank you again Eric for your help and guidance.

We hired Eric and his firm early on in our Medical business planning (Dentist of Aventura). We needed multiple complex contracts/documents created from scratch, which required us to have many meetings with Eric to iron out the details. Eric even provided great inputs on how to structure our entity and best business practices. On our first Health Department inspection, we provided all the documentation, and passed with flying colors. Eric continued to provide us support through out the process, going above and beyond. Couldn't be happier!

Eric was recommended by a local attorney who felt I would better be served by him for the sale of my dental practice. On the very first phone call, all the important bullet points were made known to me (e.g. his background, qualifications, fee, etc.). It was a fixed fee. While I had no context to compare if the fee was appropriate for the work to be done, I went with him simply because I had a good feeling about Eric from my conversations. He did not disappoint. As it turned out, the fee was well earned. Each question and concern was immediately answered by text, email or phone call. The answers were always clear and precise and reflected a depth of knowledge for which I had hoped . Another aspect of my dealings with Eric was that the process was not easy with the buyer and sometimes contentious. The encouragement he gave along the way helped immensely. I believe that speaks volumes about Eric personally and professionally. I recommend Eric and the Eskow Law Group to anyone in the medical/dental field without hesitation. Joe

My experience with Joe is that he is probably the most experienced lawyer I have ever met. He is extremely smart and very honest. I would reccomend him to anyone that is looking for an attorney. He is the kind of person that will always be honest with you regardless of what you want to hear. He has helped my family and I tremendously over the years and anyone would be lucky to get him to accept you as a client. I really can not say enough about how sharp he is. He has worked for me in both a litigation setting and with real estate law. He is amazing as a litigator. It was almost like watching a TV Show. You could really tell how he completely commanded the attention of all in the Jury and how they were really mesmorized by how sharp of an attorney he is. When the other attorney spoke no one really paid as much attention as to when Joe spoke everyone was attentively listening. I have much to thank for being able to have him handle my family and I as clients.

Marcus is definitely the best lawyer you can find for custody disputes. From day one, he was extremely patient, understanding and thoughtful. Always 10 steps ahead of opposing counsel and will fight for the wellbeing of your child. He takes his job very seriously and puts a lot of thought into each move he makes. You can even reach him at any time, including nights and weekends, if you have a pressing question to ask him. He even took the time to handle my case while he was on vacation. What other lawyer does that? None. Truly, the best attorney to have on your side.

I cannot speak highly enough about the exceptional service I received from Levin Litigation. From our first conversation, it was evident I was dealing with a top-notch law firm. The attorneys at Levin Litigation demonstrated a deep understanding of my legal needs and were relentless in their pursuit of a favorable outcome for my case. They provided clear and concise guidance every step of the way, ensuring that I felt informed and empowered throughout the entire process. Not only did they possess an impressive depth of legal knowledge, but they also showed genuine compassion and empathy for my situation. They took the time to listen to my concerns and address them with care and consideration. The communication from the team was outstanding, with regular updates and prompt responses to any questions I had. I always felt like a valued client, not just another case number. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in need of legal representation. Thank you for everything! Dorcas J. Gray.

Just wanna start off by saying if you got Nadia on your case, you already won. She legit is the most professional and nicest person I've met. We got on this house insurance claim journey and I didn't know at first how awesome Nadia was gonna be. Then we got to know one another and instantly I could tell she was focused and diligent but also compassionate and super friendly. She's a great teacher and has much patience. I feel like I've definitely learned a lot from my time with Nadia. I always had direct access to her via text or email and she would always respond immediately or first thing the next morning. Just know if you have Nadia on your case, she will work so hard for you. And if you're like me, by the end of the settlement, you'll feel like you've made a new friend. She's super professional and relatable. Like I feel she's the type of person that everyone meets and instantly want to be best friends with her lol she's that cool for real. Thank you so much for your hard work Nadia. Words can only express my gratitude so much. You're the best so keep being awesome because your vibes are so chill and shoot for the stars because you have the type of drive others wish for. Jose C Hernandez

I actually found Mr. Saunders on the Web. I spoke with four attorneys prior to retaining Mr. Saunders for our Probate matter. We were very pleased with his professionalism and knowledge of the issues. This was not one of his "larger matters" but handled it as one. He took the time to explain matters clearly, returned our calls promptly and was attentive to our concerns. We would definitely recommend him to others.

Ms. Smith and her title agency were chosen by the buyers who were purchasing my home. Upon trying to schedule a reasonable closing for all parties, Ms. Smith tried pressuring me into completing the closing the same day (short notice) and suggested I gather my belongings into a uhaul truck so that the closing could take place by close of business. I was at work and had already started negotiating with professional movers to come in the next couple of days. Upon telling Ms. Smith that I would not be leaving my job to come to her office and pack my families household at the drop of a dime, she became irate and even used profane language. She tried explaining that she had an obligation to the bank to get this done today. Her and her associates did not provide advance notice to me or my realtor of the closing date. Highly unprofessional and poor attitude. I would not recommend her to represent my worst enemy.

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:

  1. What is your experience with businesses like mine?
    Find out if the lawyer has handled legal issues for companies in your industry.
  2. What services do you offer?
    Ensure the lawyer can meet all your business's legal needs, from contract drafting to dispute resolution.
  3. 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.
  4. How do you handle conflicts of interest?
    Ask how the lawyer ensures there is no conflict in representing your business.
  5. Can you provide references from other business clients?
    Speaking with past clients will give you an idea of the lawyer's expertise and professionalism.
  6. 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.
