What People Say About Us

Client Testimonials

“Judy, Peter, and Alexander are all easy to talk to, responsive, and efficient with their work. I couldn’t recommend them more!”

Karen PetersonNational Girls Collaborative

“Working with Apex Law has allowed Flip Labs LLC to grow and adapt in our ever-changing business environment. Peter has helped our company navigate the complexities of both nonprofit and for-profit enterprise growth with outstanding professionalism and enthusiasm.

Peter BattistiCOO of Flip Labs

I’ve worked with a number of attorneys over the years, both in Seattle and in New York, and most of them tell you what you can’t do; but not Peter. When I would speak to him of how I wanted the company to function, he would stop, turn to me and say, ‘I think I know of a way to make that happen.’ He was always thinking outside the box, helping the company to get to where it needed to be. He is so smart and creative. I simply can’t say enough about him. He is an amazing man and a gifted attorney. I would recommend him in a heartbeat. Believe me, you won’t find anyone better.”

Aaron LevinFounder of Bridges Stage Company

“They’re friendly, honest, and supportive. I don’t hesitate to call when I know I’ll need the help.”

Tyson CeckaParkour Visions

“Peter helped Vadis complete a merger with another nonprofit organization. I was very impressed with his responsiveness and communication during the deal, especially because it’s been my experience that attorneys are inaccessible and unresponsive. I would certainly recommend Apex Law to nonprofit organizations seeking efficient, quality legal counsel.
