"Extremely helpful and knowledgeable in a very tight deadline window."
"Ari has been handling our legal work for more than five years, and during that time he’s become an integral part of how we run the business. He’s guided us through multiple stages from formation and growth to contract systems, compliance audits, and restructuring when our operations expanded. Whenever a new issue comes up, he already knows our structure, history, and priorities, so his advice is always practical and tailored to us. What’s kept this relationship going is consistency and depth. He’s responsive, precise, and never gives cookie-cutter answers. Whether it’s corporate filings, partnership updates, or negotiations, the work is always thorough and business-minded. It’s rare to find an attorney who works this closely with a company over the long term and still brings fresh perspective every time."
"Ari built out a full governance system for our company, including bylaws, board resolutions, and internal policies that align with state requirements. He set up a compliance calendar for filings, documented procedures for board actions, and even created templates our in-house staff can maintain going forward. It wasn’t generic paperwork he tailored everything to how our board and investors actually operate. The clarity he brought to our internal processes made a real difference in efficiency and accountability. Highly recommended attorney."
