JASON M. SILVER, ATTORNEY
I was at a breaking point when I reached out to avvo.com trying to find a highly rated tax attorney. I hadn’t filed a state tax return since 2018 and the last Federal return I filed was 2020. Our family pulled out a large sum of money from our 401k and for the first time in over 30 years, we were in a position where we owed a substantial amount of money. Panic set in when I started reading and realizing all of the penalties and interest we could be facing. Jason Silver reached out and offered to assist. After meeting with Mr. Silver, I soon came to the realization we were very fortunate to be working with one of the best tax attorneys in the State of Arizona. Jason enrolled us in the Arizona voluntary disclosure program where all $5k in assessed penalties were waived. In addition, Jason secured a first time abatement for our 2022 Federal return and approximately $4k in interest and penalties were waived. Jason is an excellent communicator and kept us informed the entire process. If we had questions, they were always answered professionally and promptly. Jason put us at ease, took the time to listen and never made us feel like we were being judged. I would 1,000% recommend Jason Silver to anyone seeking a top tax attorney to handle any difficult or complex tax issues you may be facing. You will not be disappointed. We are forever grateful for his expertise and assistance during this difficult time. Four years of worrying and panic has finally come to an end. Thank you so much Mr. Silver!

My experience with Michael was excellent. He was knowledgeable and fully articulated my situation during the entire process with the other party. Emotions run high during stressful events and having someone stay calm and steady makes the entire process easier. Very appreciative to have him and his team go to work on my behalf.

I had an issue with a landlord who was non-responsive to health issues due to a water/mold issue. Mr. Parks reviewed our case and met with me and the landlord on a weekend, after a lawsuit was filed, and was able to negotiate a favorable outcome so that litigation was not necessary.

Laura Stover represented my father and his estate for over 15 years. She provided invaluable assistance to him and our family as he made a series of complex decisions about his estate. She always went the extra mile and then some. Her staff members were always friendly and accommodating. I would recommend her without reservation to anyone seeking help with estate planning.

I highly recommend Jon Schneider as an attorney. He handled my divorce in 2014. I was a terminal cancer patient undergoing a bone marrow transplant when my wife shockingly filed for divorce & full custody of our children. She filed a false protection order & had me evicted from our home. Jon led class, respect, honor, justice, & patience through extreme legal & health challenges. He helped me see hope during a time when death was swallowing me. It is a complete miracle I survived. Jon's level of ethics combined with wisdom of how to best handle the case was incredible. In the end I was very satisfied with the outcome & justice served. Now I am enjoying majority parenting time & good health. Rhonda & Judy were also of amazing assistance, just the best of people...in alignment with Jon. I've spent a good deal of time researching family law, & how it's practiced in Arizona. I doubt anyone would find a more experienced, expert legal team in all of Arizona.

I've been involved with franchising for 15 years and I've seen many concepts come and go. Some because their idea wasn't as great as they thought it might be, but others simply because they didn't build a system that could meet the incredible demands a franchise community makes of its franchisor.
Whether its supply chain, standardized development requirements, protected territories, recommended vs. required vendors, marketing funds or non competes, they ALL matter. And, if you've failed to set your system up properly, you'll have a harder time withstanding the storm of the franchise community. This is why it is so important to find a solid franchise attorney to help you get started.
The one thing that matters more than anything else is experience. Without significant experience you may be putting yourself at risk by selecting an attorney who perhaps hasn't seen enough of what could go wrong in franchising to adequately guide you and protect your interests.
It is for this reason that I chose and recommend Jeff for anything franchise law related. He's been a franchise attorney practicing in AZ for a very long time and he's represented some of the nation's biggest and best concepts. As I was working through the FDD process, Jeff was able to ask questions of me that had me view the business in new dimensions. His ability to bring forward real world examples of some of the major issues young concepts face is important. I was able to get through the FDD process with him in just a few weeks and we are getting ready to file soon. I'm not certain i would've received this kind of care and attention from a large franchise law firm where most of what your paying for is name recognition and the bloated cost of interns, office space and expense accounts. Jeff delivers a better quality product at a fraction of the price.
I've been very happy with Jeff and strongly recommend him to any existing or start up concept looking for franchise law assistance.

This is a very strong recommendation for Ed Ribadeneira who exceeded our expectations when we called upon him for assistance revising a contract in the wake of flood damage to our home. Time was of the essence and Ed responded immediately to our request the same day, working into the evening and early next morning to re-write the contract. Thanks to his diligent and timely efforts, all revisions were fully accepted and work began immediately. Ed is personable, responsive, insightful, and pragmatic, and he delivered truly exceptional customer service at a critical time. He couldn't have been any easier or more effective to work with. We would gratefully engage his services again in a heartbeat.

I had such a great experience with Tritch Buonocore Law. Margaret helped me create an LLC, get a living will in place, and set up a Trust. The entire process was stress free and I was so happy to be able to move at my own pace and never felt pressure to make any decisions, I was always given all the time I needed to think and modify as the process went on. The documents are filled with legal terms and Margaret and Julio were always so helpful and explained everything to make sure I was making the correct selections. They did regular follow ups and check ins and it never felt like they would be frustrated with not having time to review documents but were always offering assistance if I needed it. I am very happy and will continue to work with this Law Firm for years to come.

If there were more stars, I would absolutely give them. Amy went above and beyond with my case. From start to finish I had no doubt in my mind that she was doing all she could for me. She listened to what I had to say, spoke truthfully and never sugarcoated anything. She got me ready for my court appearance and knowing that she was defending me eliminated any nerves I had. She was very assertive and to the point. There will be no next time, but if there was, I would hire Amy again in a heartbeat.

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.
