Client Reviews
"We bought a house on a Land Contract and had Thomas review the contract. He did a very thorough job and was knowledgeable. Would I use his services again? Yes!!"
"We are a small business in Minnesota attempting to navigate the complex business and tax law of the state. . Thomas was an incredible resource for us in both advising on the various routes we could go, and the actual carrying out of the filing process. We felt informed but not pressured, and appreciated the comfort that came with being able to go at our own pace and understand it all. We ultimately ended up filing as an LLC, as well as the Certificate of Assumed Name, and the entire process was as smooth and comfortable as could be. We are looking to work with him again in the future to establish a trademark. We highly recommend Thomas for business or personal legal needs in Minnesota and Wisconsin."
