Business Law as a practice is the art of
creating and operating a successful business.

As a seasoned entrepreneur and business lawyer, I set a high personal standard in representing business owners, startup entrepreneurs, and small businesses. My clients aim to protect their business interests and their personal assets. I use my experience in the rough-and-tumble business world, coupled with my legal training, to protect my clients.

Our client receives logical and critical problem solving advice tailored to their personal goals. To achieve our client’s goals, we communicate respectfully, objectively, and practically.

Our prospective clients are not relegated to an impersonal information exchange transaction.

We believe that a personal, yet professional, relationship between attorney and client is essential to effectively pursue our client’s goals. Therefore, I personally conduct the initial consultation with the new prospective clients. Our client leaves with tangible value upon which to make decisions as they move forward.

I’ve noticed that while people will see a doctor when something doesn’t feel right physically, they generally wait until they have a legal issue that needs fixing to see an attorney. Imagine not getting a couple of stitches now, later resulting in a gruesome infected...

What They’re Saying

Luis’ team provided super advice in my case. Luis gave me peace of mind in a convoluted business dispute, which include a messy lawsuit over literally everything. Luis’ business experience and legal acumen helped get the best deal possible and I happily recommend him.
-Denver B.
I hired Luis to represent me in a contractual dispute. I was so impressed by not just his legal knowledge, but his wisdom and care in making sure my rights were well protected. I felt in really good hands and very much cared for as a human being as well as Luis’ client.
-Katy G.
I’d been running my corporation, when an unfounded claim arose claiming profits. Luis was a referral. He listened to the "story, analyzed the confusion, made calls and sent “cease and desist” letters. The harassment stopped. Without filing a lawsuit!
I recommend Luis and his team for his strategic problem solving.
