“Indeed, the best time to engage with an attorney is in the early phases of an emerging enterprise - before issues may arise. In this way, your legal professionals can get to know you, advise and mitigate potential issues, and be accessible as issues arise. In our case, the business was led by a very young social media personality and our attorney, Alex Loveyko (and Tomas), has been a trusted and professional resource. From forming the new corporate structure, to the personal and work-related nuances of a young entrepreneur - Alex and Tomas have been there for us. We are looking forward to our continued relationship with Chase Lawyers and are grateful to be with them on our journey.”
