I recently had the pleasure of working with business attorney Suzanne Natbony in regards to patent / trademark / copyright issues. As a freelancer graphic designer I hadn't an idea where to start regarding starting my own business- let alone protecting against copy right infringement (or falling into the trap of infringing upon someone else's work!!) I highly recommend calling to make an appointment / consultation with Mrs. Natbony because sometimes the jargon can get a little confusing and over the phone she can reiterate concepts in different ways until you fully understand. Otherwise she sent me a link to her website: LawTake.com that had simple to follow informational videos I could watch at my leisure. If you haven't determined if your legal concerns warrant hiring an attorney just yet, definitely visit the website to browse their videos, documents and q&a. At first I didn't want to shell out money for legal fees but all and all I think it was one of the wisest investments I could have made. Saved me time (which ultimately is money!) on having to research and track down legal information that actually pertained to me; and ultimately gave me the piece of mind of how to prevent (or in the worse case scenario - handle) potentially expensive legal suits against me for copyright and trademark issues. read more

Suzanne helped me with a startup investment gone bad. I recommend Suzanne for not only being a great person to work with, very calming when I was stressed over what had happened to my investment, being affordable and also offering me some free attorney time after retaining her, letting me take care of mailing letters to save me money and being available to talk on evenings and weekends when I wasn't working! What happened was, I invested $70K into a startup with my friend. For months, I wanted to know what was going on with my money and felt like I was getting the runaround, so I contacted Suzanne because she seemed like a prominent lawyer in the community who was affordable. We connected right away and she said that I could wait until the loan date passed and then send a notice of default since it was less than a month away and I should just try to hang tight. I waited to no avail and then had Suzanne deal with my "frienemy". Within just a few months, Suzanne formulated an agreement with him to begin making payments and to bind him to something better than what we had signed. She is thoughtful and strategic and always had my best interest. Now, if my "frienemy" defaults, we have a proper document in place that I can easily sue over because the one we did ourselves was ambiguous and poorly drafted. read more

I recommend Suzanne Natbony as an excellent corporate attorney. She is the best with trademark advice, letters, releases, confirmatory emails, counterarguments, conciliatory text messages, proof of claims, advanced healthcare directives and cease and desists. Basically, Suzanne advised on various forms of communication that helped to facilitate an amicable resolution. I love that Suzanne is the founder of LawTake because she really goes the extra mile to provide discounted or complimentary documents, making legal services more cost-effective. She also directed me to several other useful contracts on her site. She advises on how to bring businesses to fruition and how to acquire properties in an LLC and how to structure the deal. She also assists with finding contingency fee lawyers, both in California and Hawaii, and helps with negotiating their fee agreements. She is so great - she even works while on vacation, on weekends and outside of normal business hours. She has helped me so much and I can't thank her enough. I highly recommend her as a versatile attorney, who picks things up quickly, works efficiently, is tough to opposing counsel, but pleasant to work with! The price is also right as very cost effective. read more

I have a small business and Suzanne is my business lawyer. I had an independent contractor leave and make nasty threats to me. I had been paying her well for several years and was very flexible with her, but this woman wanted more money and had made mistakes with calculations on her time sheets wanting money she felt she was owed. Suzanne counseled me about legally what my position was and what my options were. I was able to make this pest go away after much contention with Suzanne's intervention and assistance. I was told that this could have been a hugely expensive lawsuit. Suzanne was able to get her to sign a release of claims to avoid any future dispute. For entrepreneurs who don't have a budget for employees, Suzanne can teach you how to hire independent contractors and avoid disputes. I recommend her as someone able to help me stay calm in a stressful situation and persuasive enough to deal with someone who is making threats to report you to the IRS! read more

I was very stressed as CEO of a business that I had built when the partners and investors were trying to push me out. They tried to lock me out of the office and were sending threatening text messages. Suzanne gave me much relief as they were trying to extort me and falsely accuse me of fraud. I would not have understood if Suzanne had not stepped out of her evening events on multiple occasions to either explain or help smooth over the situation. She was able to get one of the other partner's terrible lawyers off the matter after figuratively ripping his separation agreement to shreds. We went back and forth with a new lawyer on a securities redemption and separation agreement, and then a consulting agreement to outline my work going forward. I appreciated the discounts that she provided to me and the dedication that she had to closing the deal during a short time frame and over the holidays. She worked hard to protect my interest in every way possible. read more

Suzanne is one of the best lawyers that I have ever worked with. I am a C-suite executive of a small business and Suzanne is our business lawyer. She is very dedicated and diligent, but also completes things in record speed. She has creative ideas that help manage the work flow of the company that has been very useful in reducing legal fees. She formed our company, introduced us to potential investors that provided funding for our business, drafted or polished almost all of the legal documents that we have in place and language for our website, but is also is resourceful in finding legal forms, rather than starting from scratch. We are very lucky to have her counsel because she also helped us avoid several costly disputes. She knows how to deal with people effectively to get the company in legal compliance, but also maximize opportunity for growth, rather than stunting it with a crushing legal bill. I recommend her and her legal team. read more

I had a novel idea for a company, but I wanted to make sure that I could legally do what I wanted to do. Suzanne drafted a really useful memo for me explaining the current laws impacting my business idea, what the competitors are doing and what the future might bring as to possible changes in the law. I really liked the legal recommendation section. She also formed my company, which is in the digital media advertising space. She delivered on her promises by keeping the memo within my budget and completing it in a timely manner. I really appreciated that she was both thoughtful and considerate about our budget for legal and gave me tips on how to do things myself and then have her review, so we are going to take the first stab at drafting our service agreement and then have her review. She offers very innovative lawyering for the startup community. read more

I am a physician to a very busy medical practice in Century City. Occasionally, over the years, I've had some patients with misunderstandings who have vengefully written one star reviews, even though they were gripes based on my staff, misunderstandings, or otherwise. I consulted with Suzanne about the defamation implications of the reviews. Suzanne reached out to one patient after another and successfully reasoned with them and was able to get all four patient one star reviews removed one after another. I spent less than $5000 on Suzanne's legal services to have a very successful outcome and I highly recommend her. One patient even stated that she would move the review because she liked both Suzanne and me and she was impressed by Suzanne's reputation. Suzanne is also very reliable, whenever I've needed her, she's been there. read more

Suzanne Natbony is one of the most knowledgeable and responsive attorneys I have ever dealt with in the entertainment industry. She helped me option a screenplay from a writer and protected me in ways that I hadn't considered. I am extremely fortunate that our paths crossed as she has her own video production business and needed my help with video editing. She also handles challenges like no other as she had some issues come up with her computer, which she handled swiftly and successfully. I appreciated that she was thoughtful enough to discuss my options with completing it while her computer was being repaired and timely completed it despite the stress this must have caused her. I was able to get the deal done with her counsel. She is great! read more

Suzanne created the perfect joint venture agreement, in record speed, even working on Thanksgiving! I am most thankful for the flat fee that she charged because I know she spent above and beyond the amount she charged if she were billing hourly. I also really appreciated her willingness to meet and discuss after hours in order to carefully articulate the deal. We just needed a contract to evidence a collaboration on a documentary, TV show and feature film. She advised us that we should form an LLC, which will. For those in the entertainment industry, I recommend Suzanne as a great attorney. read more

Suzanne is a treasure of an attorney -- she came to my rescue in a pinch, and on a moment's notice, to help me out of a jam involving a fake hit-and-run scam. Quick thinking and assertive, she advised me in the immediate minutes and hours afterward, and prevented the bad guys from having a good day! And while this particular case might have been a bit outside her core business, that didn't stop her from jumping in and getting it done. Smart and determined, she Solves & Wins indeed! Thanks again, and highly recommend!!! read more

I have been working with Suzanne for over two years now. It's always delightful to enter the office and work with her because of her positive, go-get-things-solved-and-win attitude! Pun intended! XD It's infectious every time and definitely brings good vibes. Give her a call and you'll see what I mean! Update: I just now asked for legal advice on a contract and am glad we worked together on it. It was a lot better and a peace of mind than working on my own on it. read more
