Mr. Telkikar exceeded expectations when reviewing my contracts and forms. Initially, I had a few questions regarding a contract and not only did he answer all my questions but he provided me with additional terms for my contract that I had not even considered. He was extremely patient and helpful throughout the whole process. I feel confident with my contacts and will be using the future.

Recently I had a breach of contract issue, and although I tend to shy away from confrontation, Gary Cripe gave me the confidence to stand up for my rights. He is one of the best negotiators I have ever met. Articulate and intelligent, he knows his craft. He fought for what I was entitled to, and I got it!

As our general counsel Gary oversees all our legal issues, manages out of state cases and attorneys, as well as the cases and attorneys requiring specialists. I can be confident a competent attorney is retained, a strategy for success has been discussed and we are properly informed through out the case.
Gary advises us on how to stay out of court and avoid legal problems. More then once he has calmly persuaded us to throw in the towel. However after having had several opportunities to watch Gary litigate in the courtroom with astonishing success; it can be difficult to concede.

Hired Mr. Schlosser to assist an insurance defense firm in my company's defense. He did an outstanding job. He handled depositions where he was well prepared in questions and/or answers. He helped outlined other discovery procedures where he took the lead and completed the tasks to everyone's satisfaction. Additionally, his fees were reasonable. Not only was he extremely competent but he ACTUALLY RETURNS PHONE CALLS... :-) :-)

My mother had Mr. Schlosser prepare her will and trust shortly before she died. Then he helped us after her death by meeting with the family, helping deal with family issues, and he even saved us thousands of dollars by negotiating with the mortuary on our behalf. He did a great service to us.

James was referred to me by a friend. My case is currently hung up in the appellate court due to the trial judge denying arbitration to the defendants (Citrus Nursing Center) he worked night and day putting this case together. He discovered so many cover ups and discrepancies regarding my sister's care. He is truly a man of honesty and integrity and I am so proud to have him in my corner. Definitely, 100 % would recommend him!

I have known Brian for 15 years personally and professionally and have always been amazed at his ability to decipher complex problems and deliver a moment of clarity and direction when most needed. Late February of 2012 I approached Brian regarding trademark registrations for MrInventory.com - a new business venture my company was undertaking. Brian agreed to help my company and took on the task of multiple trademark registrations. Starting with research through the entire application process Brian communicated reliable information regarding potential issues and what we may expect. October 2012 both trademark registrations were successfully registered through Brian and I couldn't be happier - I would definitely recommend Brian as a lawyer. Brian may technically be fairly new in the law community, but he has a deep understanding of business with over 15 years of entrepreneurship himself. I consider Brian's experiences and knowledge a true asset to my company and I would not hesitate on hiring Brian again for future intellectual property needs and general law.

I was able to explain my case to Robert and he listed to my issue. Ended up letting me know that I didn't need an attorney, just need to file a small claim against a business. Most attorneys wouldn't give you two minutes of their time. Robert actually cared and truly wanted to point me in the right direction! I appreciate his help!

I do not know if these other reviews were paid for but this attorney has been non responsive for two years telling me where I live the mds won't take liens. If he was not able to represent me after a car accident he should not have taken my case. The chiropractor was irate as he had a verbal lien with her and did not pay it so she dropped me. She had some choice things to say about his office staff as well. Meanwhile he refused to take calls and leaves me hanging. Now I have to file with the state bar and look for an attorney that handles all this beware car accident attorneys are a dime a dozen find one in your own city

My wife and I were referred to Gaudy Law by a trusted work associate, who had just finalized their "trust and will" with Gaudy Law. He had nothing but positive things to say.
Needless to say, we were not disappointed. Not only were they responsive in our initial inquiry, they were throughout the process. We had quite a few questions, which all were addressed.
Now, down to what most people likely will ask... they are not the cheapest but... this is a case of value for your investment. It is an investment in peace of mind.

We couldn't be more pleased with the service we received from Gaudy Law! From the moment we sat down with Jason in our initial consultation, he was direct in letting us know what could and couldn't be done. He took the time to listen and offered suggestions that made sense to help achieve our long-term goals. His team was quick to set up a comprehensive estate plan, including a living trust and will, with remarkable efficiency. What impressed us most was how they managed to make the process both quick and thorough.
The staff was incredibly personable, making us feel comfortable discussing sensitive matters. They took the time to explain every detail of our estate plan, answering all questions with patience and clarity. Their support throughout the entire process was outstanding.
Perhaps the best part was how affordable their services were. We had assumed that creating a solid estate plan would be prohibitively expensive, but they offered a solution that fit our budget without compromising on quality.
If you're looking for a law firm that combines expertise, efficiency, and affordability in estate planning, look no further. They've earned our highest recommendation! Thank you Gaudy Law.

I hired GAUDY LAW about 2 years ago to handle a probate for someone else who was unable to handle it for themselves. I have nothing but the best to say about this company! They have restored my faith in attorneys, they stand out the best! The whole process was painstakingly slow, due to the court system. Gaudy Law actually made this process bearable!! Let's nor forget the people that I worked with, mainly JULIA that I dealt with on a weekly basis! What a wonderful asset to this company. Couple other ladies as well. Now that it is over and done with, I had a couple of questions that I did not know the answer to, so I spoke with Julia and she made sure the problem was handled! THIS is a company that I will use again and again whenever needed. Thank you to all at GAUDY LAW!
Best Wishes,
Peggy

Anyone who has ever required the services of an attorney will acknowledge how easy it is to locate a practitioner of American law. Unfortunately, identifying those who are proficient in their stated areas of practice is not achieved with the same ease. Fortunately, Mr. LeBlanc is quite adept in the areas of business litigation, contracts, probate, and wills. For instance, my family had a probate case involving a family agreement and a questionable will. The situation was complex and family relationships were at stake. Mr. LeBlanc handled the situation very capably. Not only were we able to prevail in our position due to his sharp knowledge of contracts, he was also able to help smooth over family relationships with a commonsense approach and excellent people skills. I continue to utilize his services and remain pleased with his quality of service and personal dedication to my case. While no attorney is a miracle worker, Mr. Leblanc's degree of professionalism as well as his firm grasp of the law has consistently resulted in my reduction of stress. Mr. Leblanc is highly recommended.

Torrance is a high key professional and is skilled in the court room. He was able to communicate my perspective and concerns in court perfectly. I struggled for years to gain visitation and joint custody of my son but was able to do so on my own. He was able to bring facts to light in a way the court heard and I was able to get joint legal and physical custody and equal time with my son. He has continued to keep pushing to ensure I can help my son and to encourage the court to do what is best for my son’s overall well being.

Do not use this so-called court rep, he will do nothing for your case but take your money and not return it. I am not mad about the outcome of the case in my family court case, what I'm mad about is waiting an entire year to get my retainer balance returned to me. If you think showing up to court one time and filing paperwork one time equals $3500, you are mistaken it's not worth it I paid him $1,000 in cash at his office, not a firm in upland California- ONE MAN REP. , and then sent over another 2500 two days after he represented me in court after being stocked by his law office worker, GIOVANNI. - she was making sure she got paid, I have called and sent emails one response to the email telling me he was going to check my file because it is in storage SMH - trying to make it seem like it was so long ago he Only one man show law office - very, very unorganized - please don't rush to hire an attorney- and please don't hire this court rep

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.
