Extremely Happy

Seth is an excellent attorney, and an excellent communicator. I had to deal with a old legal matter which was surprising and stressful, but Seth was there every single step of the way. I am not an easy client to deal with, however he is level headed and always made sure my questions were answered and... I felt that things were under control. When you work with Seth he is very professional, but is able to think outside the box and provide top notch, fantastic legal acumen. I was very very happy with the net result of my situation, and would HIGHLY recommend Seth to anyone looking for an attorney. I have used other attorneys in the past, and they all felt too corporate and cookie cutter, Seth is unique and wonderful to have worked with....................

Phenomenal lawyer. Highly recommend

Seth Salinger has been my business attorney since I hired him in early 2016, as I began my own specialty coffee business. Seth came recommended to me from an old college friend and he has not disappointed. His responsiveness, attention to detail and follow up is superb. He proved invaluable to me nav...igating the intricacies of the establishment of a company, its trademarks and other legal protections as related to my brand. ANYTIME I have a question Seth responds very quickly and with clarity. This past year he also was my most significant asset in negotiations with a company that had approached me to not only be their exclusive supplier of products and services but also to enjoy an equity stake in said venture - a somewhat complex agreement that Seth simplified for me. He also drafted revised agreements that fully protected my personal and professional interests, allowing me to pursue a secondary business opportunity with peace of mind that it would not conflict with my primary business. As long as I am an entrepreneur Seth Salinger will be my lawyer. He’s an absolute pro with integrity, character, a sense of humor and an affable nature not often found in his profession. In my view, he’s the best out there.

Debt recovery

I recently needed legal representation in Massachusetts against a debtor who was not paying me delinquent patent license fees after my patents had expired. The debt amount was not large, but roughly twice the small claims limit. My local attorney (in CA) gave me two attorney references. I asked the... first one "Can you estimate what the legal costs would be to prosecute this case ..." and his response was not encouraging: "I can safely say it would far exceed the amount in controversy, and would be in excess of six figures." I talked to the other one, who said I might be able to get a judgment for as little as $4,000. Easy choice; I went with the second attorney -- Seth Salinger. After some twists and turns he resolved the case at a total cost of about $5000, which included getting a judgment, initiating planning on a reach-and-apply motion, and convincing the debtor to pay the full debt before we had to take further action. I was very satisfied with the outcome and with Seth's professionalism and skill, not to mention his attention to keeping costs within reason.
