Andrew B.

Attorney Experienced in Contract Law & Dispute Resolution

San Diego, California
$250 per hour
382 jobs
$100K+ total earnings

At Andrew Brodkin Law, I focus on contract drafting, review, negotiation, business formation, and dispute resolution. With a strong background in law and an entrepreneurial spirit, I provide tailored legal solutions for small to medium-sized businesses. My proactive approach helps clients manage legal and business challenges effectively. I also offer private mediation services for business and civil disputes. Mediation is particularly well-suited for co-founders, business partners, and commercial relationships where both sides want to resolve a dispute without the time and expense of litigation. This is especially true for interstate or cross-border matters where pursuing litigation in another jurisdiction is impractical or cost-prohibitive. My mediation rate is $400 per hour, typically split between the parties at $200 each. Disclaimer: This profile is for informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice. Contacting me through this profile does not establish an attorney-client relationship, which requires a formal, written agreement with Andrew Brodkin Law.
