"Working with Julia was an absolute joy. As co-founders of a new startup, we found ourselves faced with numerous questions, concerns, and creative ideas that required legal guidance. Julia demonstrated an unwavering commitment to addressing each and every issue, regardless of its complexity or relevance. Not only did Julia deliver the requested services with professionalism and efficiency, but she also took the time to educate and inform us about the legal intricacies involved in our enterprise. Her advice, insights, and foresight in future planning have been invaluable to our startup phase. As we continue to expand our company, we are confident that having Julia as our legal consultant and counsel will prove to be an immense asset. We wholeheartedly recommend her for anyone in need of legal expertise and personalized attention."
"Couldn’t ask for a better lawyer for our startup and female founded team My cofounder and I have appreciated working with Julia since day 1 in setting up our female founded startup. She has great positive energy, goes above and beyond, and it’s clear she has our best interest in mind by the way she works and the questions she asks. We’re so glad to be working with her and look forward to building our company with her counsel by our side. We highly recommend Julia."
"I've worked with Julia before the launch of Egunsifoods brand in 2016. She has helped us from creating our contracts to reviewing numerous contracts, which saved us so much heartache. Thanks to Julia we recently closed our first round of funding. A joyful moment that she assisted and guided Egunsifoods through. In working with Julia, I found her to be responsive, provides honest guidance and gives her full attention to the work. She does her homework and comes to the table ready to tackle the project at hand. Frankly, Julia is not your typical attorney. She's not only professional; she genuinely show personal concern for her clients. You can trust that she will have your back on every contracts and deals she's working with you on. She's the attorney you want on your side, as she will fight to protect your brand and guide you through the process all the way. She comes highly recommended!"
"Julia gets it done. We often find ourselves with a myriad of custom requests from our donors, which requires a constant legal eye. Julia is always there to help guide us through the process and protect our interests. She's astute, quick and understands us."
"I spoke with 3 other options before finding Julia, and she was by far the most competent, capable and friendly of the bunch. During the whole process, I had the feeling that she truly had my best interests at heart. I'm planning to go to her for all my small business needs. Thanks so much!"
"Julia was great - extremely responsive and was able to turn around the initial work almost immediately (which I've found to be rare in the legal profession). I had asked her to focus on a few key areas, which she did extremely well while also proactively identifying a few outliers and making recommendations - was very accommodating in setting up quick phone calls throughout to answer questions. Overall great experience!"
