Posted by Linda Wong Design | August 24, 2018 | Hired Attorney | Contracts & Agreements

Highly Recommended

It was great pleasure meeting with Mr. Jeffrey Laner, Esq. He is definitely a no-nonsense, straight to the point, experienced and very professional attorney. From our first consultation to weeks after the completion, I was always well informed and thoroughly explained every step of my business con...tract, which can be extremely complicated not to mention overwhelming. As I consider myself a very detail oriented person, I was very relieved and pleased when I found that Mr. Jeffrey Laner was not only very thorough, knowledgeable, professional and detailed oriented in his field but also welcomed to any questions or concerns I had, having an open-communication policy with Jeffrey regarding explaining every step of my business contract. I cannot say that about many attorneys. I felt very confident having Mr. Jeffrey Laner representing my company, Linda Wong Design. Needless to say, if I ever plan to either write or edit another business contract, I would definitely go with Mr. Jeffrey Laner’s office again, and I would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone who is looking for an excellent attorney. Mr. Jeffrey Laner, Esq. knows his business and he is very good at it.

Reasonable city lawyer

Discussed legal matters with an attorney I met through networking and was pleasantly surprised. Boutique law practice driven by a very nice guy, Jeff. He is thoughtful and well-versed in law, but not a typical big-city lawyer. I feel he is out to genuinely help clients, versus make a quick buck li...ke other attorneys I've met.

Good job, Jeff!

In my 18 years of running a restaurant in NYC, I have come across a handful of lawyers, but I have never met anyone like Jeff. He is not only hardworking and professional in his work, he is also extremely patient answering all my questions and explaining those hard-to-understand legal languages. I al...so found Jeff very compassionate & personable, he talks to me almost like my friend. I will definitely hire Jeff again in the future. Thanks, Jeff, for selling my restaurant successfully.

Professional and knowledgeable!

I was in over my head over a legal situation and Jeff offered to help look over my legal documents. He explained everything to me in detail and gave me great advice before my court date. I am happy to say everything went well and I am very grateful for Mr. Laner's advice and professional support.

Entity formation and contract drafting

We needed advice in chosing a company structure and with a subsequent drafting of an agreement with a supplier. Jeff was extremely helpful with his advice with regard to the company structure and how we might negotiate with a sole supplier. He communicates with clarity and has a warm personality.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
