Payment Infrastructure Agreement Review

Dane Dixon

"Dane Dixon advised my fintech company through a commercial negotiation with a payment infrastructure provider, and his work made a measurable difference in the outcome. He caught negotiation risks I would have missed — including language that could have locked us into unfavorable financial terms and exposed us to unnecessary post-termination liability — and replaced them with clear, protective positions. Dane is that rare attorney who is business-minded as well as legally rigorous: fast turnarounds, plain-English advice, and concrete suggested language instead of abstract concerns. Every document he touched came back stronger."

Review Service Agreement

Anthony Whittington, Jd/Mba

"Anthony reviewed a specialized commercial agreement for our EV charging startup (equipment sale plus long-term operations structure). He delivered a detailed written assessment and provision-by-provision revision recommendations in about a day, well ahead of his quoted timeline. He caught a real drafting flaw we had missed, pushed back on our own tax assumptions instead of rubber-stamping them, and flagged where specialist confirmation was needed rather than overreaching. Clear scoping, fair flat-fee pricing, and responsive communication throughout. We'll use him again as our contracting grows."

Review Service Agreement

Jack Stephens

"Jack reviewed our service agreement and significantly strengthened our liability, property damage, and food safety language. When I followed up with detailed questions — including a nuanced Georgia Restrictive Covenants Act issue — he gave clear, specific answers instead of boilerplate, and caught that a jury trial waiver we'd asked about isn't enforceable under Georgia law. Handled an unexpected personal health issue with total professionalism and picked right back up without missing a beat. Flat fee, excellent value. Highly recommend."

Michael S Melfi

"Michael was fantastic to work with. He took the time to understand both the legal and practical realities of my business instead of just making redlines in a vacuum. His feedback was thoughtful, pragmatic, and always explained in a way that made it easy to understand the trade-offs behind each recommendation. What I appreciated most was that he looked for solutions, not just problems. He helped strengthen our legal documents while also offering practical guidance on payments, risk management, and launch considerations that went well beyond the contracts themselves. I’d absolutely recommend Michael to any startup founder looking for a knowledgeable attorney who understands how to balance legal protection with building a real product."
