Jeffrey King
I engaged Scott Emery at Henson Efron to assist with forming an LLC for a new small business venture in Minneapolis. With his 30 years of experience and recognition in business organizations, I was confident in his technical expertise, and that proved true. He asked insightful questions to understand my goals, just as his profile suggests, and the operating agreement he drafted was thorough. However, my experience was a mixed bag. While the final work product was solid, there were noticeable delays in email responses, sometimes taking several business days for a reply. This created some anxiety during the filing process. Furthermore, his explanations, while accurate, sometimes felt rushed or assumed a level of legal familiarity I didn't have. For straightforward matters, his deep knowledge from Washington University and decades of general practice is evident and valuable. I just expected more proactive communication and clearer guidance on timelines from a firm of this caliber. He completed the task competently, but the process felt more transactional than collaborative.
