Zachary Wool is incredible!

I've had the good fortune to work with Mr Wool twice, and the bad fortune, now that I think about it, to need to do so! He is as compassionate and creative a lawyer as I can possibly imagine, going out of his way to research alternative approaches to resolving a dispute and staying in regular commun...ication in the short term and providing ongoing check-ins, advice, and a cheering word in the long term.

Extremely effective representation

I provided extensive expert consulting services in New Orleans for a client whose insurance company was obligated to provide legal defense. The insurance company completely ignored my invoices for a year, just blowing me off. People advised me that I could hire just any lawyer to pursue a breach of ...contract suit. I ignored that advice and hired Zachary, who is a Partner in a respected firm, with business law expertise. I wanted the insurance company to know I was really serious and they were up against very competent opposition. The difference in my interaction with them could not have been more stark. They clearly respected if not feared Zachary. They fully capitulated within a month, and I’ve now been paid in full. It was a real pleasure working with Zachary who listened carefully to my needs, kept me continuously updated, and was extremely fair with his billing. I could not be more satisfied at the outcome.

BP Claim

Zackary and his team were very helpful in gaining a great settlement on behalf of our Company! Zackary was always quick to respond upon my request for updates, sent updates often without a request. These updates were detailed and always on the mark. There attention to detail was obvious and helped ...respond to the many BP request for information and back up... Thanks for a job well done!

Dependable, Intelligent, and a Highly Skilled Negotiator

We’ve worked with countless legal firms across our firm’s different businesses and our client’s corporate ventures. BKC has continually added real value to our business successfully negotiating a difficult business sale, artfully untangling a messy corporate structure set up incorrectly by a differe...nt firm, and streamlining our business contracts. Zachary and the team at BKC are the most knowledgeable, dedicated, and downright impressive lawyers we’ve been privileged to work with.

Smart and trustworty

Zachary did a great job with my case. He kept me informed and cut through the BS. He's really smart and practical and could explain things to me in plain English. I will hire him again if I need a lawyer, no questions asked!
