San Francisco is notorious for being a difficult arena for small businesses. There are so many contradicting and convoluted laws that it is crucial to have a lawyer who has a proficient understanding of such a hazardous work environment. I know from hiring previous attorneys how costly it can be to choose the wrong one. That is why my partners and I feel so fortunate to have such a capable and trustworthy woman like Allison on our side.
