Always there for me

I have had the opportunity to work with many good attorneys throughtout my career but Don makes me feel like I am his only client. So no matter what the issue (concerning my company or personal matters), he can get them resolved for me. But even more impressive is that Don will respond within hours... to my request and then keep on it for me until it is completed to my satisfaction... taking the time throughout the process to make certain I understand the ramifications of all that we do.

Best of the best

Don has been my personal and business lawyer for 30 years. He has always represented me in the finest way possible. His advice is invaluable on a wide range of topics including litigation, contracts, business organization, M&A, tax, and personal matters. His firm has many specialists. He is aggre...ssive when necessary. We have been to court several times with excellent results. His billing has always been reasonable for the matter at hand.

Excellent lawyer

Donald got our group through a very large, complicated acquisition involving many, many hours of work, meetings, etc. He and his team did a fantastic job for our group. He also has done personal work for my wife and I concerning real estate, remodeling contract, etc. His advice has been invaluabl...e. I would recommend Donald without hesitation.

Trusted advisor, provides excellent solutions and extremely knowledgeable business attorney

Over the past 3 years, Don Sperling has provided timely and thoughtful council towards a variety of issues for my business. Don has proven invaluable by assisting with business development, capital fundraising and general business organizational matters. Above all, Don is trustworthy, ethical and e...asy to work with. I will continue to utilize Don's expertise and consider him a key member of my business team. I highly recommend Don Sperling to any business owner who is in need of an attorney to handle business matters for their established or growing business.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse Don Sperling and his firm without any reservations. I have know Don for more than 20 years and referred a number of people to him over that period when they were needed a top flight lawyer in Montgomery County, MD to handle real estate, estate planning, auto accident, criminal and corporate matters. He handled a minor real estate issue for me resulting in an excellent outcome. In addition, I've worked with Don as a fellow nonprofit board member and have been extremely impressed by his thoughtful approach to the various issues that come before the board.."

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.
