Reviews
"To say Kirk's business law acumen is impressive, is an understatement. I've learned over a short period of time that when I encounter an issue that would be deemed as important to the business, it warrants getting an opinion from Kirk. Without fail, I find myself making more balanced and informed decisions because of his input."

"Kirk Schauer went beyond the details of helping me start a company, he took interest in understanding my motivation for the start-up and giving insight from his experience. The legal side frightened and intimidated me but Kirk made me feel comfortable and secure that everything was taken care of."
