MJ is absolutely wonderful. She has guided me several times in structuring and executing on the sale of a business, and made the entire process understandable. She's patient (I ask a lot of questions), easy to get in touch with, and overall an attorney who cares about her clients' success. Highly recommend!

I’m one of the owners of Viva La Pasta and recently underwent a transition when my business partner and I originally bought it. We encountered issues with the previous owner regarding the name 'Mr. Pasta,' prompting us to seek legal advice.

We were recommended Simply Legal, and it turned out to be a game-changer for us. They guided us through the process of rebranding, including changing the company name, securing a new brand name, and obtaining a registered trademark for Viva La Pasta. Their expertise and professionalism were evident throughout the process.

One thing that stood out was their responsiveness and attention to detail. Whenever they needed information or signatures from us, they were prompt in their communication, which helped expedite the process.

The result of obtaining the trademark and rebranding has been significant for us. Not only did it provide legal protection for our name, but it also positioned us for future growth and franchising opportunities. Simply Legal's guidance has been invaluable in achieving our goals.

For anyone in a similar situation, my advice is simple: focus on what you do best and leave the legal matters to the experts. Trying to handle it yourself may cost you more time and resources in the long run. Simply Legal has become a trusted partner in our journey, and I look forward to continuing to work with them as we expand Viva La Pasta."

I highly recommend Simply Legal. MJ and Team made me feel as I was part of their family. True to their name, they really make the Legal process simple. I signed up for their unique Legal service subscription plan. The subscription plan included everything I needed to support and protect my business. With a flat monthly fee, I was also able to forecast my annual legal expenses and better align my budget. MJ, thank you for all you do! I am happy you are on my side! - Martin

At the beginning of this year, we got a new house which is an Airbnb. The accountant suggested having
it as an LLC. We realized that the other rental house we have also needed an LLC. Before that, we were
not protected. We didn't know, but we were exposed to potential legal problems, specifically with
guests. With the other house we have for long-term rental we were exposed to potential legal issues
with the tenants. We decided to talk to Maria Jose and add an LLC for each house.

Our accountant referred MJ. He said, “I know someone who can help you with that. You have two
properties and she will be helpful”. Since the first time I had the meeting with Maria Jose, I found out
that she was the person to work with. One of the reasons was that she speaks Spanish so we were
speaking the same language and that helped to develop the relationship.

During the discovery meeting, she asked me different questions to understand the objective that we
had. She was thinking not just about changing the documents we needed, but she was trying to
understand the project. That was so important for me that she was not thinking about just changing the
documents and that specific service, but she was thinking beyond that and our future needs.

Since the beginning of the first email and meeting, they showed me that I can rely on the service. The
follow-up is very impressive. They are requesting the meetings and the documents and the responses
are pretty fast.

Each property now has an LLC and is protected. Our Plan is to buy more properties. Right now we're
looking for a house at Ocala and now we know that we need to open the LLC first. So that we do the
closing under the LLC. And the idea is to then have all properties under a trust.

While we were in Rome , MJ and her staff at Simply Legal closed on our condominium at Acqualina in Sunny Isles. They handled everything from attending the inspection to signing the closing documents. They were very professional and responsive to my questions. I am extremely pleased with Simple Legal, very happy they managed the close without me, and would recommend them highly.

MJ assisted me with drafting contracts with an architect. I am in the process of trying to build a home, and this is my first time trying to do this. And so I needed a specialist to ensure that I was covered and also that the contractor was covered, or in this case, the architect was covered both financially and legally, so that if there were any issues, we would be able to exit the relationship amicably.
Before I employed MJ, my situation was a mess because I was not sure what the contract should entail. That's when I reached out to MJ to review the contract that the architect sent and update the contract with my concerns. And it was a perfect process, in my opinion.
The main problem it was causing was just the additional stress of not knowing whether or not in the future, if something happened, what could go wrong, or whether or not if I decided to change my mind, what the process would be to back out.
So I reached out to a high school friend who lives in Florida who's a lawyer and asked them if there was a contract specialist that she knew. And then she referred me to MJ.
And that's how our relationship started. Honestly, it was the first consult with MJ. Some of the additional questions that she asked made me think of some additional scenarios that I did not imagine in my mind, and just doing that made me confident that she understood where I was trying to go.
I would describe simply legal service as 21st-century service, modern. Everything was done fast and electronically, which I would prefer, unless I need to sign a document, I prefer to do it electronically because it's just quicker and less travel. And the communication was rapid.
Every concern and question was answered thoroughly and quickly. I was expecting some type of negotiation period, but there wasn't. It was a fair and balanced contract, which is what I was looking for. That meant I was not blowing my budget. And it enabled me to be under budget for the contract phase of what I budgeted so that money gets tossed to the architect.
It made me feel great like I made a good decision. It alleviated the post-decision-making stress that most people have, like the buyer's remorse. There was none because it was like, oh, this worked better than I anticipated.
