"David was excellent to work with. I brought him self-drafted documents for an LLC membership transfer and asked for a review instead of a from-scratch draft. He turned it around quickly, strengthened the agreements with protections I wouldn't have thought of, and answered all my questions clearly. I'd gladly hire him again and highly recommend him."
