Excellent Lawyer!!!!

Andy is our company lawyer and I could not be more pleased!! I’ve had to use him for client disputes, business purchase and brokering a deal! I absolutely couldn’t have done my deal without him! He looked over a few deals and advised which I should stay away from and provided valuable experience!!! S...o grateful to have him in my corner!!! If you own a company, you NEED A LAWYER! Andy is it!!!

CEO

Mr. Newell is a skilled lawyer who was able to navigate an extremely complicated M&A operation that led to a legal battle in both civil and criminal situations. We had several attempts by large firms with poor results before we found Andy. I would recommend anyone consult with him regarding any busin...ess matters, especially those mater concerning government entities.
