RE: S-8 Legal Opinion

Dear Sirs:

In connection with the filing of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, (the "Registration Statement") for the purpose of registering
(1) 100,000 shares of Multi-Tech Systems, Inc. (the "Company") common stock,
par value $.001 (the "Common Stock") to be issued to BERKMAN, HENOCH, PETERSON
& PEDDY, P.C. under a Legal Services Agreement, as amended, and (2) 2,000,000
shares of the Company's Common Stock to be issued to Rod K. Whiton under a
Business Consultant Agreement,  (3) 200,000 shares of the Company's Common
Stock to be issued to Dan Moldea under a Business Consultant Agreement, and
(4) 30,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock to be issued to Crafty
Creations, Inc. under a Consulting Services Contract, all of which you have
informed me have been approved by the Board of Directors of the Company
May 8, 2003, I have examined the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of
the Company, as amended, the foregoing agreements and such other documents
of the Company as I have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of
my opinion expressed herein. In the foregoing examination, I have assumed the
genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to
me and the representation of Board Approval for these agreements.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, it is my opinion that the Common Stock,
when issued, delivered and paid for in accordance with the terms of the
foregoing Agreements, will be legally issued, validly outstanding, fully paid,
and non assessable.

I hereby consent to the filing of a copy of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement. I also consent to the use of my name and the making of
statements with respect to myself in the Registration
Statement constituting a part thereof.

                         Sincerely,



                         /s/ Lawrence S. Hartman
