“Ivan Hoffman’s attention to detail, ability to negotiate, and
tenacity produced an outstanding contract for me as a first-time author.
I am grateful for his expertise.”—Suzy Allegra
“Dear Ivan,
Thank you for your work on our publishing agreement. Your knowledge
and thoroughness was surprisingly refreshing in comparison to other services
that offered “cut & paste” contracts. The agreement your authored
for us covers many legal issues that we had not even considered, and consequently,
forms the basis of a solid legal foundation for our company’s future endeavors.
Your web site, www.ivanhoffman.com, really convinced me of your knowledge
depth. Your site covers many legal topics with in-depth information
at no charge to the visitor. After visiting your site and reading
your articles, I was confident you had the knowledge and background to
write our publishing agreement. In addition, you answered my emails
very quickly, sometimes 3 per day. You made me feel like I had a
personal lawyer waiting to answer my questions.
Thank you again!"

to an audience of non-lawyers.”—Colleen H. Trujillo, Publications Director,
UCLA Latin American Center, ctrujill@isop.ucla.edu

will save us
money in the long run.” Kregg Nance-animalpeople.com

draft of the document I required. He is very professional and thorough
and I
would definitely recommend him.” Jerry Tyliczka-traderspain.com

speaker who knows how to focus his remarks, make the complex clear, and
hold the attention of his audience.”--Veronica Oliva, Bay Area Editors’
Forum
Ivan is extremely fast, easy to work with, and his fees are fair.
But even more important, Ivan is a visionary thinker. He anticipates the
legal environment of the publishing world of the future and writes it into
the contracts I send out today. Through his knowledge I can protect my
interests. But even better, I can expand what I do and reinvent my role
as a publisher. It’s an exciting opportunity that Ivan challenges us all
to step up to—and he points us in the right direction with the well-written
articles he routinely publishes on his website. -- Nancy Atkins, EarthSpring
