"Clear advice as always"
About
My work sits at the intersection of law, operations, risk, and business judgment. I help owners, founders, executives, and management teams make decisions, structure deals, negotiate contracts, manage employment and contractor issues, protect intellectual property, resolve disputes, and handle the legal problems that come up when a company is actually operating — not just when something has already gone wrong.
I have more than 20 years of experience advising companies across technology,… read more software, real estate, hospitality, manufacturing, staffing, e-commerce, international business, and professional services.
