Since inception, my company has been so impressed with Jane’s team and their knowledge, savvy, and ability to quickly understand and navigate any business issue.

We would not be where we are today without Jane and her team as partners.

If a law firm could get hero status, Jane Freedman Law would have it. The know-how and drive is unbeatable. Our business couldn’t survive without them.
Owner and Principal, Design Studio
When I started my first business, I called Jane to help me with a complex negotiation. When I founded a non-profit focusing on innovation in the insurance industry, I knew that I needed Jane’s firm. She and her team have been instrumental in helping me grow my non-profit, from thinking through how to structure technology transfer to board governance, and more. I’m incredibly thankful to have access to her legal expertise and business savvy .
Executive Director, Insurance Innovation Not For Profit Organization
Jane and her team have been a reliable business partner for us since she founded her firm. We don’t have an in house lawyer, so we rely on Jane and her team as an outsourced legal function/GC. Jane and her team have always been able to help us navigate complex legal issues. Jane understands that we are running a business, and always provides her legal advice in terms of risk management/liability. We are thankful to have Jane in our court!
CFO, Mid-Sized Independent Media Agency
Jane and her team have been instrumental since day 1 in helping us grow as a business, from financing to key contracts and more. The combination of business advice and legal insights are invaluable; in fact, we asked her to serve on our Board. I know that Jane is there to help me and my company through any challenge or transaction that might come our way. She also is an incredibly nice person and pleasure to work with!
