A few kind words (testimonials) from Herwitz Law clients

Knowing that we are protected by our contracts and have access to Kris’s advice as our business evolves really gives us a sense of ease.

Since we first began working with Kris, we’ve scaled our business, so knowing that we are protected by our contracts and have access to her advice as our business evolves really gives us a sense of ease. We have had many clients comment that our contracts are some of the best they have seen, and we have referred several of our clients to Kris over the years.

Kris is responsive, fast, and thorough. We were drawn to Kris because she had a great understanding of our business model and had experience working with other companies like ours. Many of the other legal teams we spoke to were geared for much larger companies and didn’t seem to understand the space we work in. Our previous contracts had been cobbled together from various attorneys and online forums (scary!). Kris has ensured that our contract reflects our actual business and the types of projects we are working on. We now have a much better understanding of our rights and feel much more protected. She has also been great about raising red flags when we get a client pushing back on our contract. Kris makes a lot of great suggestions and thinks about things that we wouldn’t.

I appreciated that Kris was kind, (but no nonsense), respectful, efficient, and I felt safe as a queer person of color.

Another way that I benefited from working with Kris was feeling relief that my rights were preserved. I would 100% recommend Kris to someone else, and the most important thing people should know about working with her is that Kris is reliable, fair, efficient, communicative, and also that she solicits the input of the client. Keep up the great work!

Honestly, the legal strategy session felt more like therapy than law! I felt so seen and heard.

I booked a strategy session with Kris not knowing how much fun I was going to have. I was super anxious and stressed out because opening up a yoga studio has so many moving parts, and I sought Kris’s advice on choosing the right business structure for my business. Rather than just doling out textbook law advice, they listened carefully as I shared the particulars of my personal situation, and the authenticity of our conversation led us naturally to the legal solutions that were right for me at this time in my entrepreneurial journey. Kris's superpower is deep listening with empathy and compassion to help people arrive at the solutions that are best for them. I felt so seen and heard, and I left the call feeling like I had just had a deep therapy session. My fears, anxieties, and stressed were allayed thanks to Kris. I would work with Kris again in a heartbeat.

Kris is a great communicator who provides thorough advice and explains the law in a way that is accessible for those who are not as familiar with legal issues.

When working with her leading up to a mutual former client’s event, she felt more like an advisor than a lawyer because she didn’t make things hard and always helped find a mutually acceptable solution. She offered her legal opinion but also suggested next-best alternatives when I needed flexibility.

When it came time to engage legal counsel for my own businesses, she was the right fit because she works collaboratively and, above all else, prioritizes the relationship and doing what is right and kind. A lot of people talk about their “values” but they don’t practice them which defeats the purpose. Kris truly cares for her clients and knows how to build legal foundations and documents in a way that works for them.

Working with Kris 1:1 after attending her workshop allowed me to launch with confidence — and a plan forward.

The combination of Kris's Legal Basics for Entrepreneurs workshop and a Legal Strategy Session was exactly what I needed to find out about and take care of the most critical legal things in getting a legitimate business off the ground. Kris is a lawyer who's focused on supporting values-focused businesses, and beyond knowing their expertise aligned with the online content and business world I was facing, I just LIKED her from their workshop. Working with Kris 1:1 after attending her workshop allowed me to launch with confidence — and a plan forward.

Kris is focused, precise, and efficient, and they quickly honed in on the key things for me to prioritize leading up to Riveted's launch and in the year ahead. She questions one-size-fits-all legal advice, which may feel inconvenient in the short-term, but is critical for the long-term growth and success of any business. I've already recommended her to other women building values-driven digital and online businesses, and I look forward to continuing to working with them in the future!

Working with Kris feels like working with a friend who has our back.

Kris's work itself led us to her. We were presented with the most clearly written contract we had ever laid eyes on and had to know who wrote it. Their work ethic and beliefs were what solidified the relationship.

Working with Kris feels like working with a friend who has our back. We've gotten our website up to par with a privacy policy and terms of use that actually reflect our business, and we are trademarking our brand thanks to her advice. We would recommend that any small business making a go at achieving their dreams work with Kris, as she will help you navigate through unfamiliar territory in a way that's not at all intimidating.

Kris offers creative ways of approaching legal matters while keeping her client’s best interests in mind.

After working with her on BlogHer’s events and promotions for several years before she launched her law practice, I knew I wanted her advising my next events team and was glad that opportunity arose. Working with Kris is always a pleasure. She is knowledgeable and gives clear and concise explanations when providing advice.
