Porter Simon Law Office

I had a great experience with Ethan Birnberg. He read over my documents prior to our meeting, was up to date on the concerns I'd sent over, and answered my questions thoroughly. I felt like he was genuinely interested in my situation and in helping me out, and he made sure my concerns were taken care of. His time is expensive but well worth it. Thanks Ethan!

I recently had a document prepared by attorney Ethan Birnberg at the Porter Simon law office in Truckee, California. The document pertained to a non-standard real estate transaction and had to be completed to meet a tight time deadline. I was very pleased with Mr. Birnberg's work. After I explained what I wanted, he asked several questions to be sure that I was fully aware of the consequences of my request. Subsequently, within the time frame that we agreed on, he prepared a document that was fully responsive to my request and explained additional work that could be done if my objectives changed. It was a pleasure working with Mr. Birnberg.

Ethan Birnberg of Porter Simon is an exceptional counselor. His knowledge, insights and clarity of thinking have been a huge asset to navigating the rules in the Town of Truckee and mapping them against the requirements for financing.

We had a great experience with Ethan Birnberg. We were doing a private real estate transaction (off market sale) for the first time ever and Ethan helped with all the paperwork, including getting us connected and coordinating with an escrow agent. It was a small and simple job, which could have resulted in us being treated like a low priority, but that wasn’t the case - Responsiveness and timeliness were awesome!

Porter Simon came highly recommended as I entered into the acquisition of an existing business in Truckee, Ca. I met and worked with Ethan Birnberg from beginning to end of the transaction and found Ethan and his colleagues to be thoughtful, thorough and professional throughout the entire process. Ethan is a great communicator, so he and I were consistently on the same page which was invaluable as the negotiations became difficult (as they most always do). Ethan also did a great job at tailoring his work product to my needs and the specifics of the deal which kept his efficiency high and the transaction costs to a very fair level. I highly recommend Potter Simon to anyone looking for high quality legal advice.
