“We did not have a personal recommendation for a lawyer to help us create a nonprofit, so we tried using UpCounsel. We received several quotes that seemed promising, and the attorney we ended up selecting did a great job. The platform was easy to use and helped us feel more confident navigating this world for the first time.”
“I’ve needed help with creating an LLC and merging my SCorp into the new LLC transferring all s corp assets to avoid capital gains.
Chelsea was the attorney I chose. She was patient and available through out the process.”
“The process of finding an attorney was very quick, and I was happy with it until I had the first work delivered after paying for 1.3 hours of work (initial estimate: 1.2). The attorney only had a first draft that did not accomplish what I needed (I sent extensive descriptions so it should have been clear), and actually spent time on work I did not need.”
“I hired a legal professional for services, expecting a demand letter to terminate my lease, which was promised to be sent via certified mail. Unfortunately, the letter was never sent as agreed, and there were no follow-up actions taken. Communication was rude, included personal attacks, and lacked professionalism.
To make matters worse, 30 minutes after the final unprofessional message, 911 was called, and police and firefighters arrived at our apartment. While we cannot confirm if the professional was involved, the timing raised safety concerns. We decided to wait until we moved out before pursuing a refund.
Given the failure to meet contractual obligations and the unprofessional conduct, I am requesting a full refund and would recommend that this individual not be allowed to work on this platform in the future.”
“Working with Timothy Duffy to get my law firm started is the best experience I've had with any attorney. He provides swift responses and correct answers to my questions! Super grateful for Tim.”

Re: Lerner & Weiss
Case No.: 24SMCV03632 (the “Litigation”)
Dear Rochelle:
Please provide the attached information to UpCounsel regarding the manner in which
Lerner & Weiss poorly represented Craig and you, in an email from you.
1. An offer was made by the Defendants to settle the matter on terms acceptable to the
clients, but Lerner & Weiss failed to accept the offer. Instead, they proceeded with the
litigation.
2. The Complaint Lerner & Weiss filed failed to state any proper cause of action.
3. Lerner & Weiss recorded a Lis Pendens on Defendant’s property based on an improper
theory of an easement, which could have caused the clients to be sued for defamation of
title to real property.
4. Lerner & Weiss attended a meeting with counsel for Defendants and their respective
experts, at which an agreement was discussed, but Lerner & Weiss failed to document the
agreement.
5. Lerner & Weiss charged the clients exorbitant sums of money, with little or no benefit to
the client.”
“Michael brings tremendous energy and enthusiasm to every aspect of the project. His thoroughness and expert understanding of the business have been invaluable in managing many elements of getting my startup ready for launch. He is friendly, supportive, and genuinely committed to helping, all while offering his services at a fair price. I highly recommend Michael for anyone seeking a dedicated and knowledgeable partner in their journey”
“It was smooth working with attorneys via Upcounsel, I've used it on two occasions and both the times the experience was smooth, we got quick proposals from attorneys and we're able to select the best fit who solved our problem. Broadly happy with the experience!”
“Initially I was apprenhensive about having an online service handle a complicated legal filing. But the assigned counsel explained everything in simple language that i could understand. All deadlines were met and there were no hiccups. Also the convenience of being able to do this on my own schedule without having to interrupt my workday was a welcomed bonus. Great experience.”
