This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Thorough, Honest, Expert - Just What We Were Looking For

We were looking for insight into a new venture, and if we should do it as part of our corporation or set up a new company. Jan gave us more than the simple answer to the question. She helped us to understand the nature of the interactions between the companies involved, tax ramifications of structu...ring the deal, as well as the most effective and profitable strategy for how we classify associated cost of goods internally. She helped us to understand issues within our accounting systems and how that information would help us to have a deeper and more genuine insight into each step of the process between sales, product fulfillment and billing. The new venture is up and running (well) and we have a stronger insight into how our businesses are performing. We've also reduced our tax bill. If you're looking for someone who is simply going to tell you what you want to hear, this might not be your attorney. If you're looking for the right answer, and expertise that crosses many valuable business disciplines (like we were), then Jan is a perfect fit. Highly recommend.

Excellent tax and business planner

Jan and her team provided my wife and me with some very helpful tax and estate planning services and got us on track to obtaining the most advantageous tax position possible on our rental properties.

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.
