Review Contractor Agreement

Wendell Beres

"I received an impressive response to my project (contract review). There were two main reasons that I chose to work with Wendell: (1) his profile indicated that he had relevant experience, and (2) he was willing to handle my project at a flat rate. As a solopreneur it was a relief to know that I could get expert counsel and not worry about a mounting bill. From his initial response to my project all the way through to completion, Wendell showed me that he was a trusted and competent partner motivated to deliver great service. In addition to addressing my main questions, he made a point to provide me with a comprehensive review of the contract. I felt very confident about his approach to protecting my interests. I am really glad that Wendell was the one to help me. I highly recommend him."
