    00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:01.670
>> My name is Michael Adler.

    00:00:01.670 --> 00:00:05.930
I'm the managing partner of the law office of
Michael Adler, which has been around since June

    00:00:05.930 --> 00:00:08.850
of 2013 since I started my own law firm.

    00:00:08.850 --> 00:00:14.280
And we generally focus our practice on business
law, business litigation, and real estate,

    00:00:14.280 --> 00:00:18.270
so everything from starting a company
to business divorce and fighting over,

    00:00:18.270 --> 00:00:23.480
with partnerships, to all sorts of real
estate from buying, selling, zoning, land use,

    00:00:23.480 --> 00:00:28.780
landlord-tenant issues, and etc. I mean
on any particular day my clients range

    00:00:28.780 --> 00:00:33.090
from executives getting severed, so
we negotiate severance agreements,

    00:00:33.090 --> 00:00:36.570
to a client who may be wanting
to purchase a property,

    00:00:36.570 --> 00:00:38.500
whether it's residential or commercial.

    00:00:38.500 --> 00:00:42.770
I also am in court often, so it
could be a partner who is fighting

    00:00:42.770 --> 00:00:47.550
with his former business partner or a landlord
who is trying to evict a tenant or even a tenant

    00:00:47.550 --> 00:00:50.030
who is wrongfully being evicted by a landlord,

    00:00:50.030 --> 00:00:53.120
or all sorts of contract
disputes, so it really varies.

    00:00:53.120 --> 00:00:58.450
I do everything in a day from demand letters to
lots of conference calls and meetings to running

    00:00:58.450 --> 00:01:01.630
around to various courts in
the whole tri-state area.

    00:01:01.630 --> 00:01:03.130
So I, I have my own practice.

    00:01:03.130 --> 00:01:05.180
I'm always sort of on.

    00:01:05.180 --> 00:01:09.780
I wouldn't say 24/7, but I'm responding to
emails and texts and phone calls and Linked

    00:01:09.780 --> 00:01:14.540
In messages and Facebook check messages
and Twitter direct messages from clients,

    00:01:14.540 --> 00:01:16.170
even opposing counsel, throughout the day.

    00:01:16.170 --> 00:01:20.020
I have a pretty packed schedule throughout
the day, but I wouldn't have it any other way.

    00:01:20.020 --> 00:01:21.440
I really enjoy what I do.

    00:01:21.440 --> 00:01:25.720
It's just as long as I have WiFi and a phone
line, I can be in business from anywhere.

    00:01:25.720 --> 00:01:29.850
So sometimes I may actually be in business on
the beach while I'm working, or on vacation,

    00:01:29.850 --> 00:01:33.070
but you know, I'm constantly
connected to my firm

    00:01:33.070 --> 00:01:35.820
and my clients, but I enjoy every minute of it.
