A significant part of my practice is the review, negotiation and drafting of contracts of all kinds: Contracts between buyers and sellers of assets and businesses; lessors and lessees; employers and employees; consultants and clients; doctors and group practices. If anyone tells you that contract law was her favorite course in law school, she’s probably […]

Online Reviews: A Blessing and a Curse

May 13, 2019 by Barbara Burns Leave a Comment

Word of Mouth Advertising Online reviews and blog posts are the 21st century equivalent of word-of-mouth advertising, with one enormous difference.  What goes online, (mostly) stays online, more or less forever.
