Client Reviews
"Ben was instrumental in negotiating the terms of our SaaS agreement with a much larger organization. Ben was always available, friendly, and extremely detail oriented. He made sure to explain potential areas of risk in the agreement and helped us drive negotiations to close in a timely, efficient manner."
"Ben helped me form my LLC after I because a yoga instructor. Later on, when I changed my business model, he drafted client engagement agreements, instructor agreements, and yogATL's liability waiver. I am not a "legal eagle" and he did a great job explaining things in plain English. He continues to provide advice as our business grows."
