May 27, 2008 - (San Francisco, CA) Rimon Law Group, Inc., a virtual law firm that taps into the pool of highly skilled American attorneys living in Israel, began operations today. The company, started by former Ropes & Gray, LLP attorneys Michael Moradzadeh and Yaacov Silberman, will offer high level legal services at significantly reduced prices by bringing the benefits of the lower wage structure of the Israeli legal industry to American clients.  As the economy slows, it becomes even more important to offer companies solutions that meet their legal needs without draining too many of their resources.

In the rapidly expanding field of legal outsourcing, Rimon Law Group saw possibilities to outsource to American expatriates instead of foreign nationals. Its attorneys are native English speakers with a strong understanding of American cultural, legal and business norms and nuances. Because its attorneys negotiate deals, draft agreements, and advise their clients in their native language, many hurdles present in traditional outsourcing models are eliminated.

Clients of Rimon deal directly with their attorneys in Israel, without the use of intermediaries. Its attorneys were educated at top law schools in the United States and practiced law in the United States for many years before moving to Israel. As such, most of their practice continues to be focused on American law and business trends in the United States. Rimon's attorneys handle nearly every type of personal and corporate transaction, ranging from Fortune 500 representations to legal work for start-ups and sole-proprietorships, and from asset planning of multi-million dollar estates to the establishment of much smaller trusts.   

When a potential client first contacts Rimon, the client speaks with a managing attorney in Rimon's San Francisco headquarters.  The managing attorney provides a free initial consultation to evaluate the client's legal needs and helps the client decide which specializing attorney or team of attorneys best suits those needs. From then on, Rimon's clients deal directly with their specializing attorneys, which fosters the development of a strong and personalized attorney-client relationship.  Throughout this process, the client can continue to approach the managing attorney in San Francisco with questions or for assistance.

Michael Moradzadeh, the CEO and co-founder of Rimon Law Group, graduated from UC Berkeley in 2001 and received his J.D. from Columbia University in 2005. Prior to starting Rimon Law Group, Moradzadeh practiced general corporate law at Ropes & Gray, LLP in San Francisco. Yaacov Silberman, the COO and co-founder of Rimon Law Group, graduated from Yeshiva University in 2002 and received his J.D. from the University of Pennsylvania in 2005. Prior to joining Rimon Law Group, Silberman was an associate at Ropes & Gray, LLP, specializing in debt finance transactions.

Rimon Law Group is headquartered in San Francisco.
