Founder-led counsel for matters where the outcome is decided by whoever reads the document most carefully.
A deliberately narrow docket — depth in four areas rather than breadth across many.
Formation, financing, and governance for founders and closely held companies who need a lawyer who also understands the business.
Commercial disputes carried from first filing through trial, with the same attorney at every stage — no handoffs.
Acquisitions, leasing, and closings across Manhattan, handled with the pace the market actually requires.
Employment-based petitions, extraordinary-ability and investor visas, and corporate transfers for founders, executives, and the companies that employ them — built for clients who need certainty on a timeline.
Canpolat Law was founded on a simple premise: clients hire a lawyer, not a logo. Every matter is led personally, from the first call to the last signature — no junior handoffs, no diffusion of accountability.
Admitted to practice in the State of New York, with a Manhattan practice built to serve founders, closely held businesses, and individuals who expect direct access to their counsel.
What "boutique" is actually supposed to mean.
You reach the attorney handling your matter — not a paralegal, not a rotating associate. Every email and call is answered by the person who knows your file.
Advice is delivered in language you can act on, with the reasoning shown, not just the conclusion. You should understand every decision made on your behalf.
A limited number of active matters at any time, by design — so attention is never a scarce resource on your file.
Consultations are by appointment. Initial inquiries are typically returned within one business day.
Prior representation elsewhere on the same matter, or an active conflict with an existing client, may affect our ability to engage. A brief description of your matter in your first message helps us respond faster and more usefully.
