"Michael helped me draft a contract for a home renovation project. Due to the scope of the project and past experience with the contractor, I needed to add several highly customized clauses to the contract, and Michael was able to guide me through everything and explain the reasoning clearly. Throughout the entire process, Michael was prompt, patient, and thorough. I highly recommend Michael and wouldn't hesitate to work with him again."

"I hired NextGen to represent me for a lease signing and they made me feel so empowered during negotiating with my landlord and he caught things that could have potentially become huge issues in the future. I cannot imagine signing a 27 page, 3 year lease without their legal advising. Michael was fast, so easy to talk to and overall wonderful to deal with. I cannot recommend them enough for your small business needs!"

"Michael is THE BEST! I don't often write reviews but when I receive excellent service or care, I feel the need to. I started my small business earlier this year and to be honest I had no idea how to legally begin the process of running my own company. I had so many questions to the point where I was almost too nervous to even begin. Thankfully, I found Michael early on and he was able to guide and help me every step of the way. I constantly had questions and he was always quick to reply. Not only that, he was also so kind and patient when I didn't understand some of the legal terminology and laws regarding businesses. He explained them in clear, concise, and understandable terms without all the legal jargon that was too overwhelming to understand. I also needed recommendations on an accountant and he referred me to an amazing one who has been so helpful with the financial side of things. His connections in the small business world definitely help those of us who need it. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Michael and NextGen Counsel. He's been essential in helping me establish my business and I couldn't have done it without him!!"
