Posted by anonymous | October 17, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Trademark Application

Professional, knowledgable and responsive

I hired Mr. Stewart to help me with obtaining a trademark for my business. Not only did Mr. Stewart describe the entire process in detail, he did so in manner I could understand without a lot of jargon and legal language. He was able to talk with me without being condescending and in a manner that ...I know he truly cares. One of the most impressive qualities of Mr. Stewart is his responsiveness. If I leave a message or email Mr. Stewart he ALWAYS responds in timely manner. While I am far from being a "big money" type of client, Mr. Stewart always makes me feel like I am his most valued client. Not only do I highly recommend Mr. Stewart, I wouldn't use any other attorney!

Knowledgeable, Friendly and Easy to Work With

Our team Hired Aaron Stewart to form a business entity. He walked us through the different structures, and we settled on one that fit exactly what we needed. He was easy to schedule with, had fair pricing and was an excellent listener. You never feel like he's talking "down to you" like some of his p...eers. He comes with our highest recommendation.

Posted by Susan Hearne | March 31, 2016 | Hired Attorney | Corporate & Incorporation

Aaron Stewart is the Attorney that other Attorneys go to for advice.

I needed an attorney to advise me on whether I should incorporate my business, and which type of corporation I should have. I felt comfortable talking with Mr. Stewart about my expenses, family, stages in life and how all this would effect various types of corporations. He clearly explained my optio...ns, but then suggested I also talk w/ my accountant who may have further suggestions. I'm impressed he didn't need to sell to me. Instead, he wants me to get good information, and when I'm ready, he'll professionally do all the paperwork I need to incorporate. I'm impressed. Highly educated guy, but down to earth and helpful !

Very Happy

I am 62 years old. I wanted to have my attorney to be younger than I so they could see me through to the end of my scene in the big play. When I met with Aaron I knew pretty quick he is a talented and knowledgeable person in his field. He has done a great job with my living trust as well as been ex...tremely helpful with the sale of my business. We had quite a bit of work concerning my trust and corporations in the last two years. Aaron makes sure I understand exactly some of the more complicated issues that have arisen. I feel he works with me not for me. I have the utmost faith in his ability. I trust and respect Aaron. I have recommended Aaron to several friends. All of them are now his clients.
