TESTIMONIALS:

Dear Cecilia Guerra Esq.:

As a producer and creator, I will never forget my arduous search for an attorney that could help me form my first LLC. Lacking money or any resources to pay fees, there was a lot of rejection involved in what was a long and tiring process, but after many hours parsing through several names in all sorts of platforms, I eventually had the great luck and privilege to meet you.

Your personal connection and passion for our project was evident from the moment in which I first introduced it to you. You immediately agreed to work with us and help us throughout this long journey, and we couldn’t have imagined that we would be able to work with such a consummate professional, not to mention such a great person. Your expertise on matters such as copyright law, contracting, LLCs, and all the knowledge you were generous enough to share with us from your time in the music industry was perfect for us, and we’re sure it will prove an invaluable asset for any future clients in the film industry.

You have been vital to the growth of our company and we hope that the time will soon come when we can repay you generously for your ample efforts on our behalf.

Sincerely,

Joel Quinones
