Hedge Fund Attorney

I've worked with many attorneys from real estate, estate planning, tax, and that sort of thing but until I met John I could not find a good securities attorney at a value. I started my hedge fund about three years ago and finding representation has been a revolving door. Attorneys are "Johnny on the ...spot" until land your business. I find that John knows even more than the "better" attorneys at the larger firms at their exorbitant billing rates. John isn't what I call cheap, but he provides value. If your'e on a budget, he'll allow you to do some of the lifting to offset some cost. As a fund manager, ideally, you let your attorney do ALL the work but that isn't feasible at the stage I'm in - so John makes it work. Also, he often goes beyond the traditional legal advice and gives it to you even though it's unsolicited - marketing, sustainability, lowering future risks, etc. I got to admit, at first, I was somewhat bristled but then found it to be really helpful and value-added since I'm not paying for this extra knowledge per se. I highly recommend John and will follow up with my review(s) as I continue to work with him.

very creative and responsive

I liked his way of doing business a lot. He solved my needs in a simple, straightforward, easy-to-understand and smart way. He is very creative when your need is not ordinary. My case was about some privacy concerns around a technology startup that I was about to form. He did a pretty good job on it ...and I am definitely satisfied by his work as a client. He understands the needs of technology startups very well and he is able to put himself in their shoes. He is also a tech-savvy person and he is very friendly with working through emails or online, which can save a lot of time. I definitely recommend working with John.

This was the right guy for the job!

Within minutes of talking with John, I knew I had found the right attorney to help me through a tough company stock situation. He is amazingly responsive, professional and thorough. His calm and professional demeanor coupled with an encyclopedic knowledge of transactional law provided exactly the cou...nsel and support I needed. I have been extremely impressed with John and have recommended him to many of my friends and associates.

More than just a great lawyer - also a great guy!

I would highly recommend John Myer based on the work he performed for me - and for family members. John is a rare find of both a great lawyer and someone who genuinly cares about your personal well being. He was very effective in winning my case quickly and well within my limited budget - and kept ...me extremely well informed each step of the way. John exceeded every one of my expectations.
