Contract Drafting

Picture
The fine print matters. Entrepreneurs often understand their bottom-line, but fail to account for things not going as planned. Whether you are raising capital, hiring key employees, entering into a strategic partnership, acquiring or selling assets, licensing key technology, or signing any other agreement in your business dealings, the fine print matters. I draft clear agreements with attention to detail to the responsibilities and rights of the parties. My duty is to protect your interests regardless of the outcome of the deal. 

Legal Advice

Picture
Understand the legal landscape. Businesses need clear guidance on how to navigate complex rules and regulations. Whenever possible, I will give you comprehensive and concise answers to ensure your company is in compliance with the law. If you are seeking to enter into or terminate an agreement, hire or fire employees or contractors, expand your product or service offerings, or creatively tackle a business challenge, I can ensure you proceed with a clear understanding of your company's rights, liabilities, and the legal constraints of a given course of action. 

Negotiations

Picture
Win the deal and the relationship. Whether you are looking to negotiate the terms of a landmark deal or settle a dispute, it is of the utmost importance that you seek representation to minimize your risk and maximize your upside. Countless businesses fail to understand their leverage, damage relationships, and struggle to find creative solutions to impasses in negotiations. I find win-win solutions by negotiating tactically with a level head, insulating you during the chess match.

Privacy

Picture
Transparent and legally compliant data collection, use, sharing and protection is paramount to success. This can prove to be a daunting task for business people and engineers alike. I can audit your data practices, draft your privacy policies and terms of service, and consult on software design to ensure legal compliance with CCPA, GDPR, FINRA, HIPAA and other privacy statutes, as well as ensure ensure your company is not at risk of a Federal Trade Commission investigation or fines. Unlike most attorneys, I have a deep knowledge of data science and can work with your team to find privacy compliant solutions that work with your business model and system architecture.
