First and foremost, the reviews are real! I called late one evening, needing a lawyer to represent me in my situation. From day one, I felt heard and supported. Mr. Woods took my case, and he is great to work with! Answered every question I had, took his time to listen, and understand my situation. I was treated as an individual and felt heard, something I appreciated every step along the way.
He's got tons of experience and knows his stuff. He was able to get my case dismissed. He's very reasonably priced.
Definitely take the opportunity and give this firm a call!

Couple of years ago, I went through a challenging divorce and had the opportunity to work with Carmiece T. Graves. From the initial consultation, I felt confident that I had made the right choice.
Carmiece T. Graves demonstrated exceptional knowledge and understanding of family law, offering clear and concise advice throughout the process. They were incredibly supportive, providing not only legal expertise but also showing empathy and patience as I navigated through this difficult time.
Communication was outstanding. She was always available to answer questions, whether it was through email or phone calls, ensuring I was informed every step of the way. The legal strategy she implemented was effective, keeping my best interests at heart.
I would highly recommend Carmiece T. Graves to anyone in need of a compassionate and skilled divorce lawyer. They made a challenging time much more manageable, and I couldn't be more appreciative.

Cecilia is awesome! I was looking for an attorney to draw up a revocable trust who would be knowledgeable, yet take the time to explain things to me step by step so I would understand. Well, she was that and then some. She went over every line on the forms one by one and if it looked like I was confused, she went over it again. When I left her office after the first meeting, I felt good knowing she was going to put everything in order for me. Also, I thought it was going to be a long-drawn-out process, but Cecilia had everything done within one week! If you are looking for a lawyer who is proficient, kind, patient, and sensitive to your needs look no further. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Zack is very knowledgeable and has an understanding to be able to deal with family estates. After going through months of mediation with a different attorney I came to Zack at Powers and Worshtil and he was able to end a year worth of pure greed. We were able to keep a promise I made to my parents and now the house/property will remain in the family name forever.
Many thanks to you and your team Zack.

I’ve worked with Hearns Law Group three times. They have always been professional and attentive throughout my entire process. Alphonso, Amanda and former attorney Kim, are very knowledgeable and upfront of what they can do to help your case. If you’re honest there shouldn’t be any issues. I never questioned their integrity, each of them was a tremendous help to me throughout my entire process. I’m very grateful for this law firm, their support meant everything. If anyone is looking for a good family attorney look no further.

Karl Chen is an excellent lawyer. I recently hired Mr. Chen to handle a landlord/tenant dispute for myself and my daughter. The dispute turned out to be a very complicated suit/countersuit situation that was much more detailed and drawn out that anyone of us anticipated. Mr. Chen did not ask for additional monies however, he worked the case diligently at his own expense. This was way above and beyond what we expected. Often people tell jokes about lawyers and suggest that lawyers are in the business for the money and their own self interests. This is certainly not the case with Karl Chen. He is honest, caring, intelligent, energetic, and most especially he has the attribute I treasure most, integrity. I and my family would seek Mr. Chen's assistance in the future if necessary and we whole heartedly recommend him to anyone who wants legal advice and representation of the highest caliber.

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.
