Umar Farooq Esq. P.C.
Reviews

I hired Umar in spring 2017 to review a corporate agreement and provide strategic counsel. I had vetted many different attorneys and chose him because of his knowledge, skill set and demeanor. He went above and beyond his call of duty and exceeded expectations. He is very quick to respond to emails and texts, is available when needed and meets deadlines. He operates in a ways that educates you if you're unfamiliar with a certain topic. He is also very knowledgeable about the startup/business space. I would hire him again in a heartbeat.
Umar gave me fantastic advice. He is trustworthy, extremely intelligent, and has experience in the realm of "Contract Law." I would recommend him to everyone. I will definitely use him again in the future for my legal needs.
I had some uncertainties around a start-up equity compensation deal and Umar quickly drilled down and put me at ease. The questions were varied such as: taxes implications for restricted stock awards, setting the fair market value, 83b elections, and 409a valuations.
Attorney Farooq is very knowledgeable and quick to respond. I felt totally comfortable explaining my situation and he knew exactly what to do. I couldn't have done it without his counsel and appreciate his professionalism throughout the whole process!
Umar was great, took my calls over the weekend, and was generally the perfect professional. I would highly recommend him for employment law.
