Jean and her team are lovely to work with. I found business lease negotiation and signing in NYC difficult to navigate. They guided me through the process and helped us secure our new studio space. I highly recommend Jean and would not hesitate to use her services again.

Jean patiently listened to all of my questions and thoughtfully considered which business structure would be best for me.. she was beyond flawless. She even helped me with things that were probably below her expertise, just so that I could rest easy knowing that everything was done correctly. If I had to use 3 words to describe Jean I would say she is precise, considerate and intelligent. She represents exactly what I was looking for in a lawyer, and I’ve met enough to know that these qualities are incredibly rare.

Ms. Chou provides an unparalleled service.. She is trustworthy, efficient and very well organized. I hired her to establish my 2nd business as an LLC, and she made the process so easy and seamless for me. I didn’t have to worry about a thing. In addition to this, she manages all my legal needs including very intricate construction and design contracts.
