"Matthew was absolutely excellent to work with. He responded to our project request immediately, was always available via text, phone, or email to answer any questions, and handled our demand letter quickly and efficiently. We got a response same-day as a result of Matthew's demand letter, and we had a check in our hands within a few short weeks of hiring him. He even offered to handle a few additional things, like negotiations and document signing, and finalizing the settlement. Would highly recommend Matthew for your legal needs!"

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

View Trustpilot Review

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
