I engaged Stephen DiMaria to help structure my new media startup, a process that involved both corporate formation and navigating some early intellectual property concerns. While his profile indicated recognition in Corporate and Entertainment Law, I was initially cautious given his relatively short time in practice. However, Stephen proved exceptionally knowledgeable. He clearly explained the nuances of corporate governance for a New York LLC and drafted operating agreements that protected all founders while anticipating future growth. His background from St. John's and the recognition he's already received were evident in his thorough, precise approach. He was particularly adept at outlining compliance pathways that were proportionate to our stage, avoiding unnecessary complexity. The one area where we experienced a slight hiccup was in response time during a particularly busy week; communication lagged by a couple of days, which caused some minor anxiety on our end. That said, when we did connect, his advice was always worth the wait. Overall, Stephen provided tremendous value. He delivered sophisticated, practical counsel that felt tailored to our specific venture in the creative industry. I would confidently recommend him to other entrepreneurs seeking a sharp, forward-thinking attorney.
