Gary Shapiro has been my attorney for over 30 years. He has managed my financial planning, created my Will and has guided me legally, in every aspect of the maturing process, ie: creating and managing Trusts, Living Will, Power of Attorney, real estate and banking situations. He has represented me in Surrogate Court. He is a clear thinking, sensible and knowledgeable lawyer, who can be depended upon to advise and secure the best possible outcomes for his client. That has been my experience.

Mr. Palladino did a fantastic job for me in dealing with a legal issue I was having. He immediately returned my phone calls and always made time to answer any questions I had. In the end, he obtained a result which was even better than I expected and I would recommend him to anyone I know who is having legal problems.

We first began working with Chris Haner three and a half years ago, and he has helped us knowledgeably and reliably ever since. My elderly mother needed to update her will because she had moved from another state to live with my husband and me. From thence through her death at age 95, she was treated with full respect and kindness by Chris and his staff. After she died, with sensitive listening and patient answers, Chris guided us through the probate process until we reached a solid and satisfactory conclusion. Chris and his staff have been trustworthy, friendly, and efficient.

I read a previous review about Mr. Ferri being an unprofessional lawyer. I have never met a better lawyer, professional, caring, and knows exactly how to do his job. I’m sorry to say that if you had a bad experience with this lawyer, the problem was you. You can’t go wrong with Mr. Ferri. I don’t know where my brother would be without him. Thank you for everything you do 🙏🏾

There are not enough amazing things my husband and I could say about Allan!
Our entire home purchasing process was unbelievably easy, all thanks to him. He communicated everything we needed to know in detail and was willing to go over everything and anything we didn't understand as many times as we needed
He responds within seconds to emails and phone calls and is incredibly knowledgeable. Without him we would have been lost
We couldn't be happier to have worked with Allan and can't wait to refer him to friends and family in the future. Thank you again Allan for being amazing!!!

We hired Robin Gershowitz to be our real estate attorney. She was amazing! She spent so much time with us and never rushed us. When I had knee replacement surgery she came to our house so I wouldn’t have to climb stairs. She even managed to get us extra money when the buyers delayed us. We are also impressed with her bilingual skills and the caring she gives to immigrant clients. Her office assistant always provided prompt help for us
We cannot say enough wonderful things about Robin!!!

The VA compensation department at Fusco, Brandenstein and Rada is one of the best law firms to help Veterans. My initial call with Anthony Gaona and my successful appeal under Mr Rada's leadership was just a wonderful experience. Anthony Gaona was patient, kind and found things out about my service and claim that I would have never been able to do on my own. Anthony always got back to me in a very timely manner. He is a true professional who always made me feel like I was his only client. With Mr. Rada's expertise in this field I was able to get a positive result on his first attempt. Thank you Anthony Gaona and Mr. Rada for everything you have done for me. If you need help with your VA claim don't hesitate to put your trust in this firm!!!

I would like to praise the efficiency and empathy displayed by the firm's paralegal, Shakayla Nurse. I have been fighting WC for several years, for a pair of orthotics. Numerous times, paralegals tried to no avail. Shakayla was given my case recently and within several weeks, I was awarded the orthotics. Shakalya's dilligence and empathy allowed her to navigate the system quickly and efficiently. I would like to express my gratitude for her professionalism and understanding of my situation.

In late 2023, I had a client which was purchasing a $2 million commercial investment property and wanted to do a 1031 exchange using the sale of three multi family residential investment properties to fund the purchase.
Unfortunately, the purchase of the $2 million property had to happen (ToE) before I could close the three residential properties, the closings for which would be staggered over two or three months after the acquisition. In other words, I had to do a reverse 1031 exchange.
While I have been a real estate lawyer for 50 years and had done a number of traditional 1031 exchanges, I had never done a reverse 1031. I didn't know where to begin. However, speaking to counsel at Legal 1031 Exchange Services, LLC resolved my difficulties.
While the transaction was ultimately somewhat complicated, with the help of Attorney James Walther and his very competent and empathetic staff at Legal 1031 Exchange Services, I was able to maneuver the technical requirements of the IRS code to a successful conclusion, and my client was able to incorporate the sale of all three residential properties into the exchange, thereby saving hundreds of thousands of dollars in long-term capital gains taxes.
I could never have done it on my own or with the help of my own CPA who is quite knowledgeable in these matters (but not a lawyer). Legal 1031 Exchange Services, LLC held me by the hand and took me every step of the way to a complete and successful resolution of this very complicated matter. I could not have done it without Legal 1031 Exchange Services, LLC.
I recommend Legal 1031 Exchange Services, LLC without hesitation or qualification. They are the best!

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.
