Very competent and helpful

Neil was super helpful when I had a few questions regarding confidentiality agreements. He made time for me quickly and ran me through the issues at hand in a way that was easy to understand for someone from abroad who doesn't have too much of a concept of how American law works. I would definitely c...ome back with other matters because I feel I would be in very good hands.

Contract dispute

A few years ago I ran into a complication attempting to cancel my daughters Tae Kwon Do membership. According to the contract, you could cancel at anytime with 30 days notice after completion of one year. On the 13th month I hand delivered a letter stating that due to my daughter’s non-interest in pa...rticipating any longer, I was cancelling the contract. 2 months later, I received a letter from their attorney attempting to collect a full year of membership fees and claiming I had a delinquent account. I quickly contacted Mr. Juneja of Gleam law. After sending him all the information I had on the case, he drafted a letter which he sent to the other attorney’s office. Upon receipt of his letter, I have never heard from that company or their attorney again. I was very happy with Mr. Juneja’s services and will definitely use his services again if the need should arise. Thomas McGuire

Neil was crucial in supporting my employment contract negotiation.

I contacted Neil about the intellectual property portions of an employment contract I hadn't yet accepted. He was able to respond and meet with me quickly, so I was able to go back to my new employer's HR department quickly with a response. Neil helped me understand what the contract said, drafted ...a few changes, and coached me in how to explain those changes.

Professional and comprehensive

Mr. Juneja developed very important contract leasing agreements that were too complex for the other lawyers I contacted to create. Mr. Juneja's specific experience in the entertainment industry was crucial for the timely production of these documents, and his knowledge was essential to my equipment l...easing negotiations. His services were timely, professional, and top-of-the-line. I highly recommend Mr. Juneja's comprehensive services.
