Superlative client service and rapport

Mr. Rosten is my attorney for GLETS, LLC. I interviewed three attorneys and decided upon him due to his willingness to meet me in person for the first visit, his professional demeanor, his ability to listen to my requirements and desires, his wordly experiences, his life experiences and over time he... proved a commitment to my small business needs that other “professionals” have not matched. I seldom need an “immediate” response but I do expext a reaponse of some sort within 48 hours on a business day and Mr. Rosten has NEVER left me “hanging.” I have had other professionals not respond for over a week in the real estate, accounting and craftsmen professions to my disappointment, but Mr. Rosten stands out as a committed professional. Next, Mr. Rosten had the best rates of the three attorneys I interviewed! Ultimately, I am 100% satisfied with Rosten Law, PLLC in all manner!

Great lawyer for small businesses and startups

Keith Rosten has great legal instincts because he has worked as both a lawyer and entrepreneur. He provided invaluable assistance in both business and law to a company I have worked for. He has extensive knowledge about the legal issues affecting startups, small businesses, and government contractors.... I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer for small businesses or startups or if you are looking to sell your company. I have also served with Keith on a nonprofit board for an entrepreneur network for several years and he has provided great support.

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.
