Mr. Hussein helped me survive a complicated matter and I am so thankful that I discovered him. He's incredibly passionate, patient, and competent. Do not hesitate to reach out to him for legal advice.

If any of you needs legal help or advice for your business or ministry - call Abid Hussain! He the best in the business and will totally fight for you. Can’t say enough about how great he is! ‭He helped us get our 501(c)(3) way under the time we thought it would take with NO ISSUES at all! Helped us navigate other legal things and really fought for us. The best.

Abid has been extremely help for a wide range of corporate law from contracts, to business formation, to capital raise for me and companies that I work with. He is relaxed and easy-going, but on-point when it comes to the quality of his work. Highly recommended and very fair for growing businesses.

I hired Abid to assist with legal needs for my start-up venture, and couldn't be happier with his representation. He took the time to get to know me and understand my business situation before we moved forward. Abid always provided excellent legal advice. He loves the start-up space and is passionate about helping new business ideas successfully grow.

Abid has been my attorney since the very early stages of my startup business. From the get-go, he was extremely attentive and seemed to know the answers to ALL of my questions. I have never felt intimidated or worried about emailing him with questions or requests; time and time again, he gets back to me quickly and is willing to jump on board to help me out. I do not hesitate to go to him with general business questions, in addition to legal ones - he is very informed in all areas of business. I honestly can't say enough good things! The one other area I'll touch on is the sincere consideration he's shown for not only the success of my business but my general well-being as well. Throughout our time working together, he has illustrated the deep care he has for my overall happiness in addition to my business accomplishments. He's full of countless business lessons and life ones as well! He's been a wonderful attorney and a great friend. I would highly recommend Abid to anyone who needs an attentive, very knowledgeable, caring attorney. If I could give him 10 stars I would.

We have been working with Mr. Hussain at the Joffrey Ballet School for almost 5 years. His advice has always been spot on. He works efficiently and produces quality results. Mr. Hussain has negotiated employment and business to business contracts for us. He has advised us on the types of new entities we should form for new businesses we have started and formed them for us. He has helped us with legal asset protection.

I consulted with Abid a couple of times on different issues and each time was very impressed by his knowledge. He possesses a strong ability to explain complex issues so that they are accessible to a layman. He broke things down for me in a way that made sense without feeling condescended to; he is genuinely sincere in doing the absolute best for his clients. I found his advice very helpful and would strongly recommend his services.

As a advisor to startups I am always looking for lawyers that can both provide sound legal advice but also who understand the unique challenges and needs of founders. Abid has always impressed me on both counts. He is practical and has great skill in helping me and other startups understand complex issues and how they impact my business. His strong negotiation skills are a key asset for us "little guys".
