Client Reviews
"Linda was instrumental in creating a term sheet for a key contract negotiation that resulted in successfully negotiating a year-long contract with a major media company and my business. She also tactfully negotiated and redrafted a prior employer’s severance agreement, so that I would maximize the dollar amount I received and ensured that my professional activities, in a new entity she created for me, would not come into conflict with the non-competition clause."
"Linda was great, responsive, quick and creative for our asset purchase agreement. Her integration of technical scenarios made its way for proper legal coverage which is exactly what we needed. Highly recommended!"
