Our family member ended up facing criminal and civil charges as a result of Elaine's legal guidance. After she was informed of her illegal practices, she tried to run and hide, dodging phone calls and hanging up on us. She is now being sued and will most likely lose her license as a result of her malpractice and negligence. She clearly does not understand the law.

Jude Koenig provided the legal support I needed at a reasonable price. My case entailed a not so…read morestraight forward DUI. He foresaw the eventualities. He navigated the new laws that were in effect. The portions of the process that I had to take care of personally, were thoughtfully explained. Communication was constant, but not overwhelming, and calls, texts, and emails were returned promptly. His staff was also very timely. After the culmination of the case, a matter of satisfying the court with documents came to a head. Although I created the issue, and Jude had a full docket of cases, he made time to address the situation. Incarceration was a possibility, we had worked so hard for the best resolution and I dropped a ball. Jude was available, persistent and timely and the situation disappeared like a small mistake that it was.

Scott was great! I…read morehad a tricky situation going on with a property in Tahoe City and needed some legal advice and work. A family friend referred us to Scott. Scott was great at laying out all our legal options in a clear manner. Given the situation, I was imagining a huge headache and tons of work on my end. Luckily, that was not the case, Scott kept it easy to understand and straightforward. Most of all, I just trust him-- With Scott there was no run-a-maroo or malarkey, just clear advice and quick work. Highly recommended!

Wow, absolutely awful manners and customer service. Just got off the phone with this practice. Mrs…read more Drinkwater gave me a call back to my voicemail and seemed irate from the start. I asked her a few questions about trademark and classes and having a website and she was quick to cut me off mid question every single time. Even when she asked me a question in return and I gave a response she would cut me off. At the end of our THREE MINUTE conversation, I asked a question about the business aspect of the trademark to which she curtly, slowly, and condescendingly replied; "You called me to ask about trademark and I have answered that for you. Now you want me to answer a business question to which you would have to be my client and then we could discuss these things." Thanks for the obvious statement. I have worked with MANY different lawyers in my line of business and this one's attitude, lack of class or ability to kindly suggest I was going off subject, and impatience in just a THREE minute entire conversation didn't work for me. Would have been happy to be her client but NO THANK YOU. I let her know she didn't have to talk to me like I was a moron and hung up. Respect and kindness goes a long way these days. On the other hand, the NY trademark lawyer I called has called me twice now and we had a wonderful conversation. Best of luck to you Drinkwater!

At least I had the good sense to know we did need a lawyer and they recommended Drinkwater. I'm not sure how many people sing the praises for their lawyer but I definitely do! Kerry Eaton has helped us with the following (possibly more I may be forgetting): trademarks, review of all contracts/leases/important documents, formation, maintenance and management of entities (corporations & LLC's), employement law consult, acquisition and disposal consult, real estate matters,resident agent and since she is also a CPA she can view things from that angle as well. My questions and needs always get taken care of very fast and thorough. All of the staff is friendly, communicative and competent. I appreciate not having to remember or think about everything - if something needs attention, they let me know and have all the forms and paperwork prepared, ready for me to review and sign. Whenever I'm talking to new business people, this is usually one expense they'd like to skip. Not smart. Lawyers are not cheap, this is true, but if protection and compliance is your goal, this should not be something you DIY.
