Assist with Equity Compensation
"Sam is very knowledgeable, quick to respond, and takes the time to understand the all fully while educating you on the topics being discussed so you completely understand his recommendations. He went on to send me additional reading focused specifically on areas I wasn't as familiar with, so I feel much more informed on areas of employment contracts after working with Sam. He also helped make sure my objectives for engaging him in contact reviews were met fully. I would not hesitate to work with with him again."

Assist with Labor Litigation
"Very inexperienced, although a nice person. The firm he belongs to apparently more interested in giving him experience and billing as much $$ as possible than in resolving the legal issue. Basically just rephrased my own communication and emails with the other party. In my opinion, excessively overcharged me for what was mostly redundant and ineffective communication with the other attorney. Nothing resolved. I do not recommend this law firm."

"Shanna, my son and I can't thank you enough for all that you did in representing me through this exhaustive process. I know before I sign my next contract that I will be reaching out to you again. Thank you for being understanding, kind and above all always having my best interests at heart. I feel so thankful that I found you and for your support over the last several months. It made a potentially difficult and complicated process easier, and I felt we worked so well as a team. I can't thank you enough for your guidance and support."
