What clients say

• “Elizabeth Gil has been an exceptional attorney to work with and I highly recommend her and the team at Optimal Counsel for any corporate legal needs. I knew Elizabeth through the legal community and reached out to her about a year ago to help me formally incorporate my software technology startup which had up until then been running in stealth. Elizabeth answered some initial questions I had quickly and effectively and was always very responsive. She and the team at Optimal Counsel helped me and my co-founder settle on a corporate structure, setup basic corporate documents and templates, and issue appropriate stock. We actually had such a good experience with Optimal Counsel that we reached back out a few months later and they were able to complete a second project for us even quicker when we needed to bring on some new key employees. If you're looking for a great person that will learn about your business fast and help you create the best setup for your business to thrive, Elizabeth Gil is who you should go to.”
