I reached out to Calkins Law Firm in a pinch to review a home purchase agreement, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Ben Calkins promptly returned my call and personally reviewed the agreement the same day, helping me turn it around in time. The entire Calkins team was professional, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. I will absolutely be reaching out to them again for any legal needs they can assist with. Highly recommend!

After decades of searching for competent and personalized legal help, what a blessing it’s been to find Ben Calkins and his team. I finally know what it means to “have” a lawyer! Ben and his team consistently demonstrate their ability to understand the complexities of YOUR particular case and to develop strategies designed to get you to your goals. Ben’s remarkable ability to keep apprised of your case makes you feel like you’re his only client. Talk about personalized attention! Ben fully engages with his team to use ALL his resources to assist YOU. And all this without charging so much that small businesses like mine can’t afford to be represented. My work is in behavioral excellence, so it is with deep appreciation and gratitude that I say I now turn to Ben and his team for all my business needs. What a wonderful feeling it is to know that your lawyer actually DOES have your back!

I wanted to get a trademark on a logo for a class that was tricky to do considering my product. I tried myself but failed. Then I engaged Calkins Law Firm and they provided a trademark attorney that advised me on how to go about it. I took the advice and that got me the trademark for my logo. I couldn't be happier. It really is worthwhile to engage a very expert and qualified firm to help you get what you need.

Calkins Law was extremely helpful in dissecting a legal contract issue I had with a private company for which I was an investor. Ben is diligent and thorough, easy to contact, and very knowledgeable. He genuinely cares about his clients. His firm was vital to me understanding my situation, outlining what steps should be taken next, and what future expectations I should have moving forward. You will not regret working with Calkins Law!

I have been working with the Calkins Law firm for several months now and under their direction, I have been able to avoid lengthy and expensive litigation. Their suggestions and legal drafts to a company that had left paid work in an incomplete and disastrous form, have compelled this company to complete and honor their contracts with me. They have maintained contact, and have overseen this process which has been tedious and time-consuming. Their pricing has been fair, and has prevented longer and stressful court costs and battles. Thank you to Ben Calkins and Laura Siddiq who have been very attentive to my situation. I recommend their legal advice and services.

Ben has consistently provided me sound business law counsel, as well as counsel outside of his traditional area of practice. He is quick to respond, candid, and above all insightful as it pertains to operating agreements, legal contracts, and complex deals. Down to earth and folksy – one couldn't ask for a better legal partner.

Corporate Acquisition Counsel

“I engaged Ben Calkins as our lead attorney when acquiring the Automotive Components Remanufacturing Division from TRW. This was an exceptionally involved acquisition. Throughout this tedious, tenuous, and at times frustrating ordeal he remained cool, calm and a decisive asset. He is adroit, technically astute, and professional in every instance.”

Roy

Enjoyed the Process

“I really enjoyed the process of using this firm. They explained the whole process and were very responsive to any questions I had.”

Westley

Satisfied Client

“Ben Calkins represented our firm with a very difficult business asset purchase. The seller was not motivated, difficult to work with and changed the agreement quite a few times adding two or three extra months to close the deal. Ben remained calm but more important kept me calm and balanced throughout the entire process. I will enlist Ben’s help for our next acquisition.”

Ken

Highly Recommended for New Business Owners

“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.”

Katy

Ben Calkins Authors Exceptional Agreements

“Some lawyers just understand the nuances of employment and partnership agreements. I trust Ben Calkins to provide exceptional contract agreements, and I have worked with his firm on multiple occasions to safeguard my assets and intellectual property in complex ventures. I continue to recommend and turn to Mr. Calkins for both entrepreneurial and legal counsel. He sets the bar for how more lawyers should practice law… truly for the good of all.”

David

CLF vs Specialty and Prominent Old Style Law Firms

“I was sued by a former employer a year ago and engaged a prominent old style law firm to defend me. Was very frustrated by the cost of the old style law firm and the poor client service and the overall lack of progress towards a resolution. Was referred to Calkins Law Firm by a neighbor and retained CLF to defend me. CLF’s team has supplied genuine expertise, excellence in client service and at relatively affordable cost. CLF has been attentive and aggressive and has the case headed in the right direction.”

David

I Strongly Recommend this Firm

“I recommend Calkins Law Firm to any business person in need of excellent business counsel and can say, after working with Ben and members of his team, that they provide genuine expertise, excellent client service, and cost-effective representation for their clients.”

Al

Excellent Business and Real Estate Attorney

“I live in Pennsylvania, and I needed to retain an Ohio lawyer to assist with my Ohio real estate transactions. I chose Calkins Law Form because of its top rating, well educated and highly experienced business attorneys. Both of our transactions closed timely and on favorable terms. I would highly recommend Ben Calkins and the Calkins Law Firm. I look forward to using them again for our Ohio business attorney needs.”

Anthony

An Entrepreneur’s Attorney

“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.”

Terry

Landlord Dispute

“Ben was very engaging and attentive to a dispute we were having with our commercial landlord. In the end, Ben was very effective and insightful for us, and we were glad to chosen him. We would recommend him without hesitation.”

John

Corporate Business & Contract Issues

“Ben’s acumen in both legal and business issues is always on point and his calm, professional demeanor, even when his clients might be a bit frazzled over some issue, is a definite plus. I highly recommend Ben as legal counsel to help with any business transaction.”

Corporate Business & Contract Issues

Extraordinary Representation

“Whether representing my NYSE listed employer or me personally, Ben Calkins has provided extraordinary representation. I have always been delighted with the results of his work! He kept me fully informed at all times and welcomed my questions. The cost is very fair and reasonable and I’ve always considered him an excellent value. I recommend Ben Calkins wholeheartedly and without reservation.”

Michael

Hands-On Knowledgeable Legal Counsel

“Ben is unique in that his knowledge of the law is matched by his expertise in business. Ben has always come through for me and my company, and for that reason I highly recommend him to any company looking for outstanding business legal counsel.”

Sebastian

Merger Transaction

“I have had the opportunity to work with Mr. Calkins’ firm on multiple occasions. In 2018, and 2019 Pars Capital hired the Calkins Law Firm to handle the legal aspects of merger transaction. I have found the staff to be very knowledgeable in performing the transaction details and offering valuable advice when constructing the transaction structure. The firm performs within timelines that are sometimes very aggressive due to nature of the work we do. I will certainly not hesitate to hire the firm on future transactions.”

Rudy

Seasoned Expertise
