Have you consulted or hired this lawyer?
Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.I’ve had the opportunity to work with this attorney on the sale of two different companies over the past 20 years, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. Selling a business is complex, stressful, and full of unexpected challenges, but he consistently brought a level of thoroughness, creativity, and strategic thinking that made the entire process smoother and far more successful. He doesn’t just handle the legal work — he thinks ahead, anticipates problems, and finds smart solutions that protect your interests while keeping deals moving forward. What really stands out is how detail-oriented he is. Every document, clause, and negotiation point is carefully reviewed, yet he always keeps the big picture in mind. His ability to approach complicated situations creatively helped us navigate issues that could have easily stalled or derailed the transactions. Having trusted him with the sale of two companies over two decades says everything about the confidence I have in his work. If you
James Van Poolen assisted myself and my children in a very complex estate matter. He is extremely knowledgeable, trustworthy, and responsive. We would never have been able to navigate this difficult process without him. If you need a competent, fair, and effective attorney, please consider James Van Poolen for your legal needs. On behalf of our appreciative family, we cannot thank you enough for your guidance and support. Highly recommend!
