Client Reviews
"Kaiser and his associates have been a real pleasure to work with. Excellent work as usual."
"I can't recommend Kaiser highly enough. Our company has relied on Kaiser for 2 years now and he has consistently delivered high-quality work in a timely manner. As a young company, we've relied on him for solutions to all kinds of issues ranging from simple NDAs to complicated partnership agreements involving nuanced non-competes. Kaiser is the kind of attorney who understands that the legal work needs to be a servant to the business goals and not the other way around. He's experienced enough to have a number of options in his toolkit, and as an effective listener and communicator, he can work through the implications of each with me so we can choose the right path forward. Kaiser is also a pleasure to work with on an interpersonal level. Having my counsel not be a pain in the butt matters to me when the pressure is running high and we need to figure out how to thread the needle on a difficult deal. In general, Kaiser is the kind of attorney every small and medium sized business wishes they had."
