"Within an hour of our first conversation Geoffrey had submitted the first draft of the documents that I requested that only required a couple of twiks mainly because I changed my mind on certain things and I had a finished product. Thank you Geoffrey!"

"I have used Geoff's services since 2001 to draft and review a wide variety of telecommunications agreements including, carrier, satellite space segment, termination and joint venture agreements. Geoff has always taken the necessary time to understand my business so that the agreements he prepares meet my particular needs rather than just providing a mainly boiler plate agreement."
