WHAT CLIENTS SAY

"Ed provides very good templates for us to use for various policies and procedures."
"He has a very deep understanding of our business and its complexities."

MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"I try to approach client interactions with a healthy dose of humility. Although the legal, strategic and business issues we’re asked to analyze as outside advisors are often incredibly complicated, it’s inordinately more challenging for our clients to take that advice, implement it and see it through to completion. As a private practitioner, it’s important to understand that a matter isn’t over for my client when I leave the meeting, hang up the phone, or hit "send" on an email.  "
