I am the Co-Owner of Jordan Moments Photography & Videography in San Antonio, Texas. Since the first date of hire, Alisha Andrews has allowed my company to focus on what makes us who we are rather than having to worry about all of the legal aspects of our business. Dr. Andrews is diligent in her work, and just as passionate about her work as we are of ours. This makes working with her all more the merrier. She has completely streamlined and simplified our processes, and has saved us money on our bottom line through her services. As an owner I could not have hired a better attorney! I would recommend A. Andrews Law PLLC to anyone looking to make their lives easier! Thank you Alisha!

I consulted with Mr. Nash on an intellectual property matter. He was very informative and went out of his way to make sure we / he had covered very avenue to help me. Then when he found out I was an artist, and had a business painting ceiling murals for children's hospitals as well as fine art, he told me so much on how to protect my art.

I researched attorneys for months and came across Jeffrey Anderson. I live in Charlotte, NC and he lives in San Antonio, NC. After many other attorneys turning us down, Jeff took our case. Our son had a delayed diagnosis with the military and as a result suffered severe brain damage. My husband served honorably for 8 in the United States Air Force and upon his exit we discovered our son had an undiagnosed case of hydrocephalus. Jeff and his team were there for us every step of the way and treated us like friends, for that we will always be grateful. He is very professional and worked with us every step of the way. We ended up settling with the governmeint to be able to care for our son. Thank you Jeff for taking on our case and working with us.

Ive been on the other side of cases and I have found him to be One in a million - A lawyer that get's deals done that are fair to both sides. And it shows in his pleadings. Many times a Lawyer looks to create litigation so the clients bills get stacked up, NOT John. So if your a local and have Eminent Domain case, Please consider this law firm.

I hired Dan to provide legal representation for me a few years ago. The matter was overwhelming for me. Dan provided excellent service and took the time to carefully explain all details of the case. He was always available to answer questions and went out of his way to calm my concerns. I cannot thank Dan and his staff enough for all of their hard work to make sure all angles of the case were examined and covered. His experience in civil and personal injury matters was invaluable.

Since 1997, my brothers and I have owned a series of companies ranging from a Texas licensed Retail Electric Provider (current), Texas licensed Wireless Telecom Provider (current), and Texas real estate investment company (current) among many other business through the years. We have had a relationship with Elliott and the folks at his firm since 2000. Elliott is a very trustworthy attorney and his team of associates always give us very sound advice. Through the years, we have had to file suits against others for wrong doings, which is never a task I recommend taking on unless one must with not other choice left. With that said, the team led by Elliott have never let us down. We as a business act ethically, but nevertheless have had some run ins with unethical people. Through the help of Elliott and his firm, we have been able to prevail through all of these situations with acceptable outcomes. More importantly, the team of lawyers have been able to give us sound advice along the way that allowed us to shape our businesses and not repeat past mistakes in business. We truly feel that our business outcome to this point would not have been possible without the help of Elliott and his esteemed colleagues. I would highly recommend the use of the firm and more specifically Elliott Cappuccio himself. He is fair with his billing practices and provides very good value for the money spent.

True professional and a master at her line of work. She went above and beyond to ensure the best interest of my daughters and I were upheld. She turned what could’ve been a nasty long drawn out divorce into a clean straight forward and expedited one. She was always there for me to answer questions at odd hours of the day and most importantly she genuinely cared about the outcome. Her ability to turn a tropic hurricane situation into a small tornado was remarkable. I have recommended and passed her information on to other people who are going through a divorce. She’s the best of the best!!!

When I was injured in a car accident about 20 years ago, it was hard for me to believe that my own insurance company became antagonistic. I was in excruciating pain and trauma from a car accident that was clearly the other driver's fault and trying to figure out the legal side was causing even more stress. I am so grateful that Barry Beer was able represent me. He guided me through each step of the process helping me to deal with the insurance company, doctors, and my employer. The case was settled in my favor. Since then, I have turned to him and his firm for other legal matters and they have always been helpful, professional, and successful.

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.
