Business Mergers & Acquisitions

“I would highly recommend Ben Calkins to anyone starting their own business. I knew it was important to have my business set up properly from a legal perspective, but I wasn’t sure where to start. Ben is clearly knowledgeable and experienced with law, but beyond that you can tell he is passionate about business and entrepreneurs. He took a genuine interest in setting up my business for success, providing quality legal expertise at an affordable price.”

“Tom had to listen to, and understand, a complex business dispute. It was quite technical. But he was able to use his legal knowledge and skill to respond clearly and provide excellent representation. I could not possibly have done this myself. So it was a blessing to find a professional of Tom’s standing to represent me in this dispute.”

“I have leaned on Calkins Law Firm now for over 5 years. He’s the only lawyer I’ve ever had because he is, in my opinion, a unicorn in the world of law. Reliable, trustworthy, empathetic and always works with what I have in my wallet. I have never come out of a situation with Ben and lost. He will fight tooth and nail for you. He knows how to talk to people. He knows how to put you at ease in what is likely a scary, uncomfortable situation. Ben has been my go to during some of my darkest times. He’s affordable, he’s professional, and always on his game. Good luck finding another law firm as reliable as this one. I would recommend Ben 1000x over. You won’t find a better lawyer.”

“As a business owner I have known Ben for years as a man of integrity, passion for people, and able to get the job done. He has helped me with legal matters and I have been very pleased with the work he has done for me. He comes highly recommended for any legal need you may have as a business.”

“I found the Calkins law firm to be very responsive. I appreciated being able to talk directly to Ben without going through any “gate guards.” He provided a lot of great advice before I even actually hired the firm. Ben also provided contact information and recommendations for non-legal folks who could assist us with other needs we had in preparing the real property for sale. He always responded to my messages quickly–as did Doug, the other Calkins attorney that worked with me. They were very flexible in meeting the desires of our buyer. In summary, I highly recommend this firm if you need help with a real estate transaction.”

“The Calkins Law Firm represented us in the recent acquisition of our company. Ben and his staff provided us with excellent legal counsel and advice. Not only are they knowledgeable, they are easy to talk to, very responsive and really care about your business. They were constantly looking out for our best interests and identified numerous areas where documents needed to be amended to better protect our interests.”

“We use Ben for contracts because he understands our business needs quickly. Ben has helped us with countless mergers, acquisitions, and formation of either “C” corporations or limited liability companies. Ben “specializes in small businesses”, and forms a close working relationship with our management team.”
