I was referred to Kelly at Bagla Law and advised she comes highly recommended, I can 100% confirm that. The service provided was professional and our case was dealt with promptly. Despite the time difference as i am based in the UK, Kelly always responded to my emails and concerns within a few hours of my reaching out, I often wondered if she ever got any sleep. For any business related query I would highly recommend Bagla Law. They are very knowledgeable at what they do and most especially the communication was 100% which I really appreciated. Thank you. Very happy client.

Kelly is a Five Star Business Attorney. She understands what it means to be in business as a solo preanieur and she KNOWS the laws that effect small businesses. She has written two books, "Go Legal Yourself" which is a must read for every person who has started, operates, or is considering starting a small business. I could tell you what I learned from reading it but more important I highly recommend you buy it and read it so you will gain the knowledge and educate yourself. She will soon publish her second book and I can pretty much guarantee it will be as valuable to business owners as "Go Legal Yourself". I highly recommend Kelly Begala for all you business Legal requirements.

I have to give Kelly Bagla 5 stars for being one of the truly exceptional attorneys who are there to add value to you and your business. She will help you, no matter the stage you are in: start-up, growth, transition or working towards retirement to ensure you are fully protected and in many cases have successfully established an asset you can sell. Kelly has the skill and experience she earned working with the high profile big billing law firms, but she brings you that knowledge, skill and experience for a fraction of the price because, like any good business person, she shed the overhead and can pass the savings on to you without diluting her services.
