SERVING AS A TRUSTED ADViSOR ON LEGAL MATTERS AND BEYOND

As outside general counsel for privately-held businesses, I handle a broad range of matters for my clients, such as:

  • business formation and governance
  • contract drafting, review, and negotiation
  • business acquisitions and sales
  • intellectual property licensing agreements
  • employment and severance agreements
  • domestic intellectual property (primarily trademark) queries
  • bank transactions
  • residential and commercial real estate matters
  • other related business matters.

My approach is to work collaboratively with the stakeholders in the business to identify and address the question at hand, in a thorough yet efficient manner.

start your business

I can help you set up the right legal and tax structure for you, your partners and investors, and for your new business.

PART OF YOUR TEAM

I encourage my clients to keep me up to speed on their business in general, so I can promptly respond when an issue arises or a deal needs to be done.

TRUST YOUR CONTRACTS

I pride myself in drafting clear, concise, and complete contracts – to support your stakeholders, to buy or lease property, to sell products or services – that clients can rely upon from year to year.

ACHIEVE SUCCESS

When your legal affairs are in order, you can operate your business with confidence. Well-drafted and negotiated contracts, and organized records, will make transactions more straightforward and less stressful.
