I've just moved here to the Austin area; I've been from San Francisco / Boston / Milwaukee / Kansas City and Los Angeles and back again, and throughout the years, I've retained 21 different attorneys, addressing different business issues I've faced throughout the years. Additionally, I used to work as a consultant for a District Judge in Silicon Valley when IP issues arose. So while I'm not personally a legal mind at all, I can definitely say that I know how to tell when I've find one.
Mr. Simmons definitely raises the standard for what a great attorney should be: he's personable yet actionable, and has had nothing but dead-on advice with business matters which arise from time to time that I would have had no way of foretelling. If you have a business, small, medium or large - or if you are considering having counsel here in Central Texas, I strongly [and I mean strongly] recommend Mr. Anderson Simmons. I'm not sure there'd ever be an equivalent you could find in the US with the legal acumen, personality, and willingness to work on hard-hitting issues while at the same time counseling on the best ways to approach small business matters simply and efficiently. The only word to describe this attorney is "WOW."
