Business & Employment

A Strategic and Proactive Firm to Take Your Business to the Next Level.

We knew as a start up company we needed to retain the right law firm, the first time. We did a ton of research locally and The Rabb Law Firm and their attorneys came back with what we felt were the best reviews and the experience we needed to represent our company. They have been very instrumental navigating us through all things to start our company and going forward. This has allowed myself and the other two business partners to focus on what we do best, design, build and sell our products.

  • "I have nothing but good things to say about the Rabb Law Firm. As landlords of a condo in Big Sky MT, we sought guidance to effectively structure the property and business – Jeff walked us through the process of setting up an LLC and provided tailored leasing documents."

    —M Kurreck

  • "I worked with the Rabb firm and specifically with Jeff Driggers. So appreciative of his professionalism and attention to the matter we hired the firm for. I’d go to them again in a heartbeat; it was a good feeling knowing Jeff was on our side."
