Michael Wales

"Michael was very helpful, communicative, and thorough in helping us establish a 501(c)3, and we would definitely recommend his services. My wife and I recently started the process of forming a nonprofit, but we didn’t know of any lawyers who could help us set up the organization. We found Michael through an inquiry on UpCounsel; we picked him because he seemed very knowledgeable about the process, he responded to us promptly, and his quote was fair and reasonable. Michael walked us through all the steps we would need to complete, explaining what parts he would take care of and what we would need to do. He patiently answered all of our many questions quickly and respectfully, and he efficiently generated the forms we needed to submit. He sent us drafts of all the documents prior to submitting them so we could provide any necessary feedback. Once we’d finished the initial steps, he sent us a very professional binder containing our founding documents and a corporate seal. Once we received our tax-exempt status, he gave us clear guidance regarding the steps we would need to complete in years to come to maintain good standing as a nonprofit. Working with Michael was pleasant and productive, and we were very satisfied with the work he did on our behalf. Thank you, Michael, for all your help!"

"Mike was deeply knowledgeable, giving good strategic advice as well as executing efficiently on the nuts and bolts of my project."

"Extremely knowledgeable and kind. Michael was prompt, with exceptional attention to detail."

"Mike has worked with me over the last 18 months and every time I've needed his assistance (for myself and/or my clients) he has been top notch. A well thought out communicator assuring we all understand the pros and cons, as well as very at tentative to the details of the issue at hand. I have recommended him to a number of real estate related clients and will continue to do so."

"He is attentive, detailed, and profechional. He also has a great demeanor. He is responsive and prompt when you ask questions. I think he goes the extra mile for his clients. Anyways I know he went the extra mile for me. I appreciate the time and effort he put forth with my tasks; I will continue to use him in the future."

"I contacted Michael to help me figure out an international boat purchase which was the best decision I could have made. He took us from start to finish and without his knowledge and expertise the transaction would have never happened. Michael went above and beyond in all aspects and would gladly hire him again!"
