I retained this firm for a paid second opinion and paid a $3,900 retainer. My expectation was that the attorney I initially consulted would personally engage with the core issues I raised, particularly tort-based reliance and misrepresentation. Instead, the matter was largely handled by another attor...ney, and the analysis I received focused heavily on buyer-awareness/Form 17 issues rather than the reliance framework I had specifically asked to be reviewed. I was also disappointed by the billing, including time recorded before I had signed the engagement agreement, which I disputed. Overall, I did not feel the service matched my expectations for a paid second opinion, and I would encourage future clients to confirm in writing who will actually perform the analysis, what issues will be addressed, and whether any pre-engagement time will be billed.

I highly recommend William Kessler as a real estate and business lawyer. My wife and I seek William's advice as entrepreneurs and real estate investors. He has advised us on the type of business structure that protects our business and personal assets, along with our living will and trust. I highly... recommend William. He is very responsive, current on best law practices, and communicates clearly so that we understand all of our options, risks and benefits in making large financial decisions.
