Michael Wales

"Michael was very helpful, communicative, and thorough in helping us establish a 501(c)3, and we would definitely recommend his services. My wife and I recently started the process of forming a nonprofit, but we didn’t know of any lawyers who could help us set up the organization. We found Michael through an inquiry on UpCounsel; we picked him because he seemed very knowledgeable about the process, he responded to us promptly, and his quote was fair and reasonable. Michael walked us through all the steps we would need to complete, explaining what parts he would take care of and what we would need to do. He patiently answered all of our many questions quickly and respectfully, and he efficiently generated the forms we needed to submit. He sent us drafts of all the documents prior to submitting them so we could provide any necessary feedback. Once we’d finished the initial steps, he sent us a very professional binder containing our founding documents and a corporate seal. Once we received our tax-exempt status, he gave us clear guidance regarding the steps we would need to complete in years to come to maintain good standing as a nonprofit. Working with Michael was pleasant and productive, and we were very satisfied with the work he did on our behalf. Thank you, Michael, for all your help!"
