Avorn LLC's approach to legal work focuses on getting deals done and resolving disputes efficiently. The goal of engaging a law firm should be to protect the business and achieve better outcomes - not for the lawyer to bill as much time as possible by changing "agree" to "hereby agree". We have designed legal operations from the ground up, and can equip your company with the right documents and practices to thrive on your own.
