Robert Preskill puts the "counsel" back into Counselor

What a wonderful attorney. I even feel a bit bad about using the term "attorney," because Robert is more of a wise, friendly advisor, who is very experienced with the law. I would trust him with my life. He will help in avoiding liability and making the right decisions relating to legal aspects of ...business models, intellectual property protection, real estate and corporate matters.

Very Professional

Robert Preskill is a very professional attorney. He was always responsive to my questions, got back to me in a timely manner, and handled my matter to my satisfaction. I have recommended Preskill to a number of friends and fellow writers, and will likely call on him again in the near future.
