In 2013, I received the coveted Martindale-Hubbell Client Service Award, which goes to less than 4% of all attorneys nationwide.

As the former co-owner of a restaurant , a fine art gallery, and other businesses, I bring a unique perspective to business advocacy. Most lawyers graduate law school with some business law courses under their belts, and then they go out and start guiding clients. In my case, I have actually personally faced most challenges that my clients will encounter. I've weighed the options, seen what works and what fails, etc.. As a result, my advice has a depth that most attorneys can't offer a clien

I have several musician and record label clients. Some of our artists have charted hit records, and I have been involved in most areas involving their ascent.

I do not represent athletes or actors/actresses.

Home sale agreement review

I contacted Evan to review my home buying agreement. He actually gave me a good referral to another attorney. Appreciate the help.

Excellent attorney and commercial real estate agent

Evan guided me every step of the way to find a new office location for my practice. He provided excellent advice regarding advantages and disadvantages of each location and then guided me through the entire lease negotiation process. It was a great advantage to work with such an experienced attorney ...who is also an commercial real estate agent. I highly recommend him.

Real Estate Investor

I have been in the Real Estate Business for over 30 years. Last year I undertook one of the most complicated, tedious Real Estate transactions of my career. Evan stuck with me through the entire ordeal until we reached it's successful conclusion. A glutton for punishment I plan to do it again this y...ear. Having Evan on my team made the difference

Excellent Lease Negotiator

I just consummated a significant lease transaction with Evan in which he represented the tenant and I represented the Landlord. Evan was a pro to deal with.

Unique Expertise in Business Law & Business Real Estate Transactions--Great Choice.

Evan Langert is our Legal Counsel for our company's business real estate and contracts respectively. We have found that Evan's blended expertise has been a tremendous asset to our company. In our search for Counsel we wanted a relationship where we could brainstorm with us as a team member and not ...just 'an attorney' who repeated law. Evan has been invaluable in that role. We found Evan to be one the few that seeks understanding first, then gives us options while educating us on the risk/reward of each option--while being sensitive to costs. Evan has always recommended what is in our best interest to move business forward to help us best serve our clients!
