Client Reviews
"It was such a pleasure to have Charles Caliman as my legal representation in my recent separation with my business co-founder. He was always readily available via email or text and would happily answer any of my questions. Even with consistent back and forth, he was patient through all of our discussions and helped me to clearly understand my options and the different ways I could approach conversations with my former co-founder. He went above and beyond what I expected and he made me feel confident in the final outcome once we came to a joint consensus. I would highly recommend him as counsel to anyone that is going through legal issues as an early stage startup."
"Charles is experienced, affable, and driven. He provided a clear resolution to my proposal in a timely and efficient manner for a very reasonable price."
