"He was great, helpful, nice, very responsive and got the job done very quickly."
"Thomas was a pleasure to work with. He was able to assist me and my business in a timely manner. Would use him again in the future."
"I utilized Thomas’ services when a vendor did not provide me with the quality product I was promised. I tried dealing with the vendor myself, however, received no response. Thomas got involved and quickly settled the matter and got me 100% of my money back. Will use him for any and all legal needs in the future. -Eileen G (Ohio)"
"Tommy helped my company negotiate and close multiple acquisitions across 3 states. Not only did he get me favorable terms, he also took care of the corporate work (forming entities for each acquisition for liability concerns). The acquisitions took, beginning to end, 8 months. Throughout the whole process Tommy went out of his way to comfort me every time I thought the deal was going to fall apart and spent the time (probably an excessive amount) explaining what all the terms met. Due to the fact that he did so well and I was so happy, we brought him on to handle a contract dispute with a merchant and he was able to settle it (at very little cost to me) without the need for a long drawn out litigation. We have used Tommy on numerous occasions since then. - Joe S (New York)"
