Great Experience

Ms. Wachs was nothing but a pleasure to have represent me while we negotiated my office lease. She always represented my best interests, and was able to work out a more favorable lease. I would recommend her to anyone looking to rent commercial space.

Excellent Service

Extremely caring and helpful. She showed care about my concerns in my business just as much as me if not more. She helped me to understand what I needed to do and led me in the right direction. She always called to check in and make sure everything was great with the business at any time!

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
