He works with start-ups to medium-sized businesses giving solid advice on everything from employment practices and handbooks to buy/sell agreements to entity formation. After working with many small businesses, Charlton also began estate planning for business owners, and he enjoys doing that as well.

"Amazing! Was very comfortable communicating with Charlton which is very un-like my experience with past attorneys. Addresses all concerns and goes through the checklist to confirm you've not overlooked anything. One would think it's within the scope of all attorneys to work this way, but no. Quick turnaround, very professional yet personable. Goes way above and beyond. He's my go-to this point forward."
