In 2023, we contacted Sara and the legal firm Lengea for the legal support of our Medical Spa business. This experience turned out to be exceptionally successful. Sara and the Lengea team helped us organize the legal side of our operations, identifying and quickly resolving our vulnerabilities. What distinguishes Lengea is their ability to explain complex legal issues simply and understandably, working promptly and efficiently. Their service fully meets our legal support requirements, offering many useful options. We thank Sara and the Lengea team and continue our collaboration.

I started with Lengea Law almost a year ago and it has been absolutely the most helpful decision when starting my medical spa. As my company grows, I have piece of mind knowing I have the best legal counsel in this ever-changing business.

Lengea has been with me every step of the way in the formation of my Medspa. I have had nothing but an exceptional experience with their attorneys, especially Shirin Adelman, who is a partner in the firm. They are responsive, knowledgeable, attentive, easy to work with and their resources are extensive. They are able to supply all the information needed for anyone who is interested in undertaking the venture of opening a practice of this nature. I highly recommend Lengea.

Shirin is amazing, she always answers my calls, I never had a phone call or email unanswered. She’s on top of everything has all the knowledge. She’s a very big plus on my team. Keeping her around forever. Worth every penny.

I honestly could not be more pleased with my experience so far with Lengea Law. I spoke with 7 different law firms before I decided to go with Lengea, and nobody seemed to know how to create the exact structure I wanted for my company. The moment I spoke with Sara on the initial consult call, I knew I had found the legal team I had been searching for. She knew exactly what I was trying to do, and since then has been such a source of knowledge and comfort through my startup journey. Sara is smart, intuitive, incredibly knowledgeable, and has so much experience working with med spas that I trust every word she tells me. Talking to her feels like talking to a friend, coach, business consultant, and attorney all in one. The membership is worth every single penny, and I am so glad to have Sara on my team. Thank you Sara and team!!
