Responsive and efficient

I had the pleasure of working with Ben Lambert during his time at 360 Business Law, and I can’t recommend him highly enough. He was extremely responsive, set and managed expectations very efficiently and was always very thorough. Since our business focusses on staffing and recruitment, both contract ...and direct hire, we needed someone who truly understood the complexities of our client agreements and the contractual nuances of our industry. Ben had an exceptional grasp of our position and offered clear, practical advice that really supported our goals. He was always professional, approachable, and a genuine pleasure to work with and I look forward to working with Ben again in the future!

Great experience

We had the opportunity to work with Ben recently on a project to re-incorporate our LLC in a different state. Ben was both highly knowledgeable on the various legal and tax implications of the move and very quick and efficient at executing the change. Ben also structured the changes and explained... each step clearly, so that each contract and document was easy to understand. He made what could have been a long and complicated process, one that was easy for us and complete within no time at all. We would absolutely recommend Ben for others seeking a lawyer with experience working with small companies and expertise in U.S. business and tax law.

Great Lawyer

I am very glad to have found Ben to review an agreement for my photography business. He was very professional, thorough and took time to answer any questions/concerns I had. I highly recommend Ben and would like to work with him again in the future.

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.
