Client Reviews
"I was a bit skeptical about requesting legal advice online but Marina made me feel at ease from start to finish. She was very professional and addressed each concern in an extremely timely manner. She made this entire experience very simple for me and I appreciate that."
"Quick, clear, and prompt in all communication. Got me what I wanted, left me with some great documents, and had answers to all my questions."
"Marina was great to work with and quickly made herself part of our team, carving out time time for meetings in-person and via phone as needed. Great experience!"
"Marina is extremely professional and thorough. She responded to all inquiries quickly and with sincere interest. I am a creative freelancer looking to recoup payment from a client who breached contract and I am new to "legal things" - I'm sure many of my colleagues understand how vulnerable we are when seeking out creative jobs. She very clearly explained what to do and the process."
"Marina is fabulous. In a very short time she guided me through the process I was trying to understand. She pointed out several related-items I wasn't aware of and I am forever grateful. Thank you, Marina."
"Marina Warner has been a fantastic choice as counsel. She helped my organization successfully file for our Trademark. She patiently explained all the categories and coached us the through the entire process. We have also worked with her on licensing contracts and independent contracting agreements with tight turnarounds and tricky terms. She is consistently responsive and thoughtful."
