>> My name is Michael Adler. I'm the managing partner of the law office of Michael Adler, which has been around since June of 2013 since I started my own law firm. And we generally focus our practice on business law, business litigation, and real estate, so everything from starting a company to business divorce and fighting over, with partnerships, to all sorts of real estate from buying, selling, zoning, land use, landlord-tenant issues, and etc. I mean on any particular day my clients range from executives getting severed, so we negotiate severance agreements, to a client who may be wanting to purchase a property, whether it's residential or commercial. I also am in court often, so it could be a partner who is fighting with his former business partner or a landlord who is trying to evict a tenant or even a tenant who is wrongfully being evicted by a landlord, or all sorts of contract disputes, so it really varies. I do everything in a day from demand letters to lots of conference calls and meetings to running around to various courts in the whole tri-state area. So I, I have my own practice. I'm always sort of on. I wouldn't say 24/7, but I'm responding to emails and texts and phone calls and Linked In messages and Facebook check messages and Twitter direct messages from clients, even opposing counsel, throughout the day. I have a pretty packed schedule throughout the day, but I wouldn't have it any other way. I really enjoy what I do. It's just as long as I have WiFi and a phone line, I can be in business from anywhere. So sometimes I may actually be in business on the beach while I'm working, or on vacation, but you know, I'm constantly connected to my firm and my clients, but I enjoy every minute of it.
