informative

I am working on opening my own business and being a novice on how to do the paper work. I found Michael Geller through internet and I reach out. He gave me financial advice, legal advice, insurance advice and tax advice on how to start and manage a business.

Very competent lawyer

I am working on opening my own business. Being a novice and having no experience in this field, I knew I needed some professional consultation, advice, and guidance. Mine is an intellectual property. I frisked the internet and found a handful of competent lawyers. Reached out to all of them and caref...ully listened to what they had to say. Although, I am novice in this field, nonetheless I had well defined goals in my mind. First, I wanted to thoroughly protect my intellectual property and business, and foreseeing large expenses, I wanted to save money on taxes. Michael Geller was one of the few lawyers who along with offering free consultation was very clear and thorough in his explanation of the process. After our almost two-and-a-half-hour meeting, I had a very good understanding of how to protect my intellectual property, and how to save money on taxes, and how to incorporate and maintain my business successfully. Moreover, Mr. Geller also explained how to get legal agreements in place and what types of insurances are available and are necessary. Lastly, Mr. Geller gave some valuable advice on how to properly set up my financial system. The meeting was fruitful. I still have some more lawyers in the list, but now I have no doubts about Mr. Gellers competency in the field and knowledge of business.
