When my daughter and I were in need of legal representation in the acquisition of a franchise I called my personal attorney. While he is at a large firm, they only represent franchisors. He said that his partners have had many dealing with Michael Boxerman and found him to be great at advising his clients about what they should consider in pursing becoming a franchisee and representing them in the franchise agreement process. They could not have been more correct. Michael first took the time to be sure we understood what a franchise relationship entailed. He explained the responsibilities that both franchisee and franchisor have to each other. He cautioned us where we could find ourselves exposed to liabilities that might not be immediately apparent in reading the documents. In short he utilized his expertise and experience to be sure our lack thereof did not unknowingly put us into an unexpected position. Once we decided to proceed with obtaining the franchise Michael was terrific. The franchisor was located in London so call timing was more difficult. He made himself available whenever we needed him to get the deal done. At one crucial time right before we were heading to London a deal breaking issue had to be resolved. Michael took hours one weekend, while on a family vacation, to get on a conference call and resolve the matter. I have been in business for over forty years and this kind of dedication is rare. There were many issues to negotiate in the franchise agreement. Michael knew that even if an issue as not to our liking, it was normal and not worth the expense fighting over. He also stood his ground for us when a clause in the agreement needed to be changed. In the end we signed an agreement that was better than I thought it would be. In summary, Michael Boxerman explained what his representation would entail including an estimate of the legal fees. Michael went above and beyond our expectations in getting our deal done within parameters acceptable to us. His fees were proper for the work he performed for us. I would recommend Michael Boxerman to anyone needing legal representation regarding franchises without any reservations.

Best franchising attorney period. No matter the task Marcus & Boxerman has provided me with A+ service and A+ results. They have helped us grow from one location to over thirty, providing us with guidance and support parallel to none. Having interacted with numerous franchising attorneys, I can honestly say no one comes close to Marcus & Boxerman! I will be a client for life!

Having been a client for over 15 years, I can not count how many times this firm has been instrumental in helping me grow my business or get me out of unfavorable situations. Marcus and Boxerman's best attribute is that they truly are one stop shop for legal needs. Even when they don't handle the particular situation they are involved and take responsibility to see the situation through. They are valuable asset in our company and will be for many years to come.

I am from Nigeria and Michael helped very much. He went to court and got my cases dismissed. I am glad I know Michael. He is the best lawyer I had in my life.

Honest, smart, and client-protective attorneys. Highly recommend attorneys Scott Tzinberg and Jordan Levey for their quality legal counsel and straightforward, practical action plans. They impressed me with their intimate knowledge of the family law process and judicial system (during initial consultation knew that my judge was visiting from a different court system -- other lawyers I interviewed, did not). Communication was outstanding; I was always informed. Truly trusted their judgement and strategy. In addition, was very grateful for their skillfull negotiations, which gave me the best possible outcome in a short time period. Quick resolution = reasonable fees. Had great peace of mind and less worries knowing they were representing me. Honestly can't say enough good comments about Scott and Jordan; they were compassionate and highly competent during a very stressful time.

Regas, Frezados and Dallas has represented my company on numerous occasions. They have always delivered outstanding results. Their expertise in negotiation has really paid off. Through Innovative thinking, good judgment and experience, they were able to make deals come together that I thought were beyond salvageable and with better than expected results. Their goal always was to achieve the best result without wasting valuable time through endless litigation. In every case I felt that my best interests were being kept in mind. The bottom line: if you are looking for a law firm that delivers results and can get the deal done hire this firm.

When I came to Michael J. Petro I felt very frustrated and taken advantage of. He talked me through the process of my situation and my experience was exceptional. He was incredibly knowledgeable and accommodating. He was very prompt in all correspondence and kept me informed every step of the way.
