Maggie Shahrestani Lawyer Reviews & Ratings - Austin

I help startups and small to medium sized businesses set themselves up for success. My clients get counsel on enacting best practices to avoid disputes and law suits, negotiating the best possible contracts -- even when dealing with a larger company or big corporate customer -- and navigating regulations and statutes to protect their assets and mission. In particular, I work with many small and family-owned construction subcontractors who enter large contracts with much larger general contractors and developers, and who often find themselves de-prioritized for payment.. When business relationships go south, I'm here to step in and help achieve a resolution that helps clients move upward and onward -- usually through negotiation, mediation, and a last resort, litigation. But my  goal is to maintain long-term relationships with my clients, supporting them along the way to make sure disputes are unlikely to happen at all. The best court case is the one you never have to file!. I take my role as counselor very seriously - my job is to support you in executing on your plans. And my metric for success is simple: If you can sleep a little better at night, I've done my job. Whether you are looking to lay a solid foundation for your business, making moves to protect what you've built, or dealing with an ongoing dispute, feel free to reach out.
