Lawyer Reviews for South Dakota Short-Form Asset Purchase Agreement Projects
Georgia Attorney Needed for SBA 7(a) ATM Route Acquisition Negotiation
"I hired Darshun as counsel for buy-side transaction support related to a business acquisition, including APA review/revisions and support toward closing. While I did receive an APA draft, the overall engagement did not meet the expectations discussed before payment, and I had to hire new counsel to complete the remaining closing work. My major concerns with counsel: 1. The engagement began with a major scope misunderstanding. I requested transaction counsel for a business acquisition, but the first substantive response I received described a litigation strategy, warranty claims, federal court complaint, and asset recovery protocol that did not apply to my matter. I had to correct the scope before the work could proceed. 2. I was required to submit the full project payment upfront before work Started. 3. Responsiveness and availability were not adequate for a time-sensitive closing. I requested phone availability to level-set expectations, but counsel indicated she was tight on schedule and later stated she would not be available for two weeks after that week. 4. The project was closed as complete without my approval even though I still needed closing support and my lender was requesting attorney contact information. 5. The remaining closing work was not completed, including through-closing support, lender coordination, UCC/lien search support across the transaction footprint, loan/closing document review, and related closing coordination. Counsel also stated she only practices in Georgia and could not do the Tennessee UCC filing/lookup, even though the route includes Georgia and Tennessee assets."

M&A Attorney Needed to Review SBA-Financed Asset Purchase Agreement (Buyer-Drafted) — Florida Cleaning Business Sale
"If your project is extremely straightforward, I'm sure Edward would do a good job. But if your project requires knowledge of making tracked changes to a document, back and forth negotiation/work with another attorney, and sticking to deadlines I would look elsewhere. I do give Edward the benefit of the doubt that maybe he was very busy when he took on my project. But overall, I would not recommend his services to a friend."
Reply From Edward B.
Thank you for your review. I believe it is important to provide some context because your review does not accurately reflect the scope of the engagement or the services that were provided. This engagement was for a specifically defined legal project involving the review of a buyer-drafted Asset Purchase Agreement in connection with an SBA-financed Florida business transaction. The engagement was accepted for a modest fixed fee based upon the limited scope requested. The work requested within that scope was completed, and throughout the engagement I provided substantive legal feedback, answered questions, communicated regarding the transaction, and provided the work product requested by the client. Your review characterizes the matter as though the engagement included unlimited rounds of tracked revisions, extended negotiations with another attorney, and continuing attorney-to-attorney representation. Those are materially different services from a defined agreement-review engagement and, when requested, require additional time and an appropriately expanded scope of representation. It would be unfair to suggest that a limited-scope engagement performed for a few hundred dollars was deficient because the client ultimately expected services beyond the scope originally retained. I am also particularly disappointed by the suggestion that I may have accepted the matter while being "too busy" to perform it. I accepted the engagement, performed the agreed work, remained available for communication and consultation, and provided what was requested within the agreed scope. Clients are absolutely entitled to have high expectations of their attorneys; attorneys are likewise entitled to have the agreed scope of an engagement respected. For additional context, prior to this review, my overall client rating was 4.9 out of 5 stars based on the feedback I had received from clients. It is now 4.8 out of 5 as a result of this review. I mention that not to diminish the client's individual experience, but simply to provide prospective clients with the broader context of my history of client satisfaction. I respect that the client may have ultimately wanted a broader level of representation than was contemplated by the original engagement. Had that been communicated as the desired scope from the outset, I would have been happy to discuss additional services, attorney-to-attorney negotiations, further document revisions, deadlines, and the corresponding legal fees. However, it is not accurate to characterize a completed limited-scope engagement as a failure to perform simply because additional services were desired beyond the agreed scope. I appreciate the opportunity to have assisted with the transaction and wish the client success with the purchase and future operation of the business.
