Client Reviews
"Dane helped us set up our LLC and draft an operating agreement for our partners. As a new business, we had a lot of questions, and Dane patiently walked us through ownership, roles, and what happens if someone wants to leave. Everything was clear, organized, and delivered faster than we expected. We’ll definitely use Dane again as we grow."
