Thorough, Detail Oriented and Amazing Lawyer!

We hired Erin to develop event client contracts for our catering company. She stayed on top of changing requirements for us, including navigating the uncharted COVID waters, and keeps us informed when we need to file any paperwork that may be coming up. Our contracts have been water-tight and we can'...t thank her enough for how much care she has shown for our business, as well as the both of us!

Goes the extra mile!

Erin's expertise and broad experience for our start-up provide the professional support we need as we grow. From options grants to contracts and partner agreements, Erin goes the extra mile to make sure that her client's needs are met in a very timely manner. She also supported our 409A valuation pro...cess despite a quick turnaround. I have tremendous confidence in her work, and can't say enough about her efficiency, referral network, support, and knowledge.

Owner

Erin went above and beyond during our negotiations. She was able to see potential issues, before they arose, and make sure that all my bases were covered. It is a comforting feeling to know your lawyer is the smartest one in the room, or zoom.

Responsive, knowledgeable, creative, excellent attorney!

We are a small tech start-up who needed advice on establishing our businesses and opening our first round of investing. Erin has provided thorough, excellent advice and found us a creative, sound solution for an investment situation where we were stumped for ideas. She is a pleasure to work with.

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.
