Sidney Christopher Winter

Mr Winter, by far, was the best lawyer I have ever dealt with. Up until about 7 years ago, I had never worked with a lawyer. Then, I had a chance to work with several on many different cases. Mr. Winter stood out from all of our lawyers. As soon as he was briefed on our situation, he knew ex...actly what course of action to take and laid out what steps we needed to do to move forward. He informed us on what he thought would occur through the course of our resolutions and everything that he had directed, worked out perfectly. He was very good in terms of communication back and forth and I never felt like I was waiting to hear back. He was very responsive to our communication and worked with us to resolve our situation in a timely matter. I have never had a bad experience with Mr. Winter and would recommend him to anyone that requires a lawyer.

I realize this may sound hyperbolic, but Kit is literally the best lawyer that I have ever worked with, and I have worked with quite a few. I would trust the guy with my life. I started working with him 5 years ago after he was recommended to me by a friend. I had founded what turned out to be a... a rather controversial website, and he helped me through two investigations by Attorney's General, more than 100 threats of lawsuits, and an trademark lawsuit by a major corporation. During that time, Kit proved to be someone that I could rely on. I could call him day or night. (Real-life example: He picked up when I called him at 6am on a Saturday morning because the LAPD was on the line saying some kid had posted a bomb threat to my website). He also proved to be incredibly competent. His expertise in Internet law, and Intellectual Property law, and his general ability to form a very sound argument, and to clearly articulate it, made the lawyers we were up against look like amateurs. We won or favorably settled every legal dispute that we encountered. The other thing I always really appreciated was how he treated me - as an intelligent business person. He was always happy to explain why were responding in a certain way, and listened carefully to my input. He considered my business needs when developing the strategy, rather than taking just a narrow view of the legal concerns. And at no point did I ever feel like he was padding his hours -- which is a concern I always have with people being paid an hourly rate. I trusted (and continue to trust) him wholeheartedly. The truest testament I can give is that 5 years later, I have worked at two other companies, and have hired him for help at both. I have also recommended him to my Dad, who has hired him too. I recommend Kit Winter enthusiastically and unequivocally.
