"After decades of various engagements with business legal counsel, I can confidently say that my experience here with Allen was the best. Words and stars can’t effectively describe how fantastic he was for me in a time of need. His responsiveness, attention to detail, curiosity and general sense of empathy for my business was shocking. I’m so glad I found this platform, and would work with Allen 100 times again."
Thank you so much -- that really means a lot, especially coming from someone with that much experience working with counsel. I'm glad I could help get the settlement agreement across the finish line, and I'd be glad to work together again. -Allen
View More"I cannot say enough good things about my experience working with Allen. Five stars honestly feels like the minimum I can give him. I hired Allen to help me with a residential lease that became much more involved than I initially anticipated. There were multiple revisions, specific business terms I wanted incorporated, questions that came up along the way, and details that needed to be addressed before I felt comfortable moving forward. Allen was there throughout the entire process. What impressed me most was that Allen didn't simply draft a document, send it to me, and consider his job finished. He took the time to understand what I was trying to accomplish, answered my many questions, explained the reasoning behind his recommendations, and continued working with me through the revisions and final execution of the lease. Allen was also remarkably patient and responsive. There were times when additional questions or issues arose that could easily have been considered beyond the original scope of the project, yet I never felt that Allen was simply watching the clock or looking for an opportunity to close the engagement. Quite the opposite—he genuinely seemed invested in helping me get this right. The end result is a lease that I am extremely pleased with, and my tenants have now signed it. Allen helped me take this from a complicated situation with many moving pieces all the way through to a completed agreement. As a professional myself, I have tremendous respect for someone who combines expertise with integrity, attention to detail, responsiveness, and genuine concern for the person they are helping. Allen demonstrated all of those qualities. I came away from this engagement feeling that Allen went above and beyond what I originally hired him to do. More importantly, I came away trusting him. I have already signed up for the platform's annual chat service because I would value having access to his guidance for future matters. Allen has earned my highest recommendation. I would work with him again without hesitation and would confidently recommend him to anyone looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable, thorough, patient, practical, and genuinely committed to seeing his client's matter through to the end. Thank you, Allen, for everything you did for me and my family."
Thank you so much -- it means a lot, especially given how much back-and-forth this one required. I'm glad the extra rounds and the specific terms you needed all came together, and I really appreciate you taking the time to write this. -Allen
View More"Allen was exactly what a bootstrapped startup needs. I came to him with a wage-compliance question I barely understood, and he delivered a thorough, clearly-written analysis that broke down our actual exposure, walked through founder personal liability, and laid out a practical path forward — all at a fair, transparent flat fee with no surprises. He was responsive to follow-up questions, corrected an earlier assumption proactively when new facts came in rather than letting it slide, and framed everything in a way we could actually act on. He also tailored his recommendations to our real situation (pre-funding, limited cash) instead of giving generic advice. I'm re-engaging him for the next phase without hesitation. Highly recommend for any early-stage founder navigating employment law for the first time."
Thank you, this means a lot. Wage compliance is exactly the kind of thing that is easy to get wrong early and expensive to unwind later, so I am glad the analysis gave you something you could actually act on. Looking forward to the next phase. Allen

You're very welcome — glad I could help get your Disclaimer, Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, and Refund documents squared away. Best of luck with the launch. -Allen
View More"Allen was very responsive to all of my questions and provided direct understandable feedback. I would use his service again in the future if needed."
Thank you for the kind review — I enjoyed working through the Promissory Note, Junior Deed of Trust, and Co-Ownership Agreement with you. Glad to help again anytime. -Allen
View More"Allen was exceptional — thorough, fast, and clearly knows California employment law cold. For a flat fee engagement he delivered three detailed documents including a California equity cliff termination risk advisory that wasn't even part of the original scope. His analysis caught three significant gaps in our termination letter that could have created serious legal exposure. Highly recommend for any founder dealing with California employment matters."
Thank you very much. Those gaps were exactly the kind of issues that can become expensive problems if they go unnoticed, and I am glad we caught them before the letter went out. California employment law has a lot of traps for the unwary — I appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. -Allen
View More"If you're a small business startup looking for legal guidance, hire Allen without hesitation. I came to him with a general idea of what I needed, and he took everything to a level that was legally sound and specifically tailored to my situation. He caught issues in my documents before they became real problems and consistently delivered more than I asked for and all without any pressure for upsells or additional charges. What stood out most was that he genuinely cared about my specific business. Nothing felt generic or templated. His response time was fast, his communication was clear, and the value for his fee is outstanding. I felt I got every dollar spent and then some. He saved me significant future headaches before I even opened my doors. If I ever need documents reviewed again, I will rehire him without hesitation. Hire with confidence."
"Allen was a top choice for me as he clearly laid out what was included/not included in his bid. I could easily see the value and how it impacted my business need. Once hired, he was very communicative and proactive. His prior experience and knowledge showed. I actually preferred someone who communicates via message over video call. My task was a pretty simple contract, and responding to questions via messages (rather than a video call) better suited my schedule. I was able to continue working on my business and get my contract completed sooner than expected. I would definitely recommend Allen and should I ever need assistance again, I would reach out to him. 10/10!"
"This was performed by a bot"
I’m sorry to see this feedback and would have welcomed the opportunity to address any concerns directly. This work was personally reviewed and drafted by me based on the information and documents provided, with revisions incorporated as requested. At no point during the engagement did the client raise any issues with the work product or request clarification or changes. I encourage clients to communicate questions or concerns during the project so they can be promptly addressed. I remain committed to providing thoughtful, professional legal drafting and guidance, and I stand behind the quality of my work.

Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.

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.

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.
