"Doug was great. He started working on my job immediately after getting the winning bid, was very thorough in preparing my documents, and was very responsive via email."

"One word: AWESOME! Prior to visiting Doug, I was ripping out my hair, trying to figure out the answers to my legal business formation questions. Doug talked me through the process, helped me weigh my options, and gave me advice on future decisions that I will inevitably be facing as a new startup. Friendly, super easy to talk to, and just a straight up, stand-up guy!"
