Services

My value as a business lawyer and technology lawyer arises, in large part, from the time I have spent embedded within technology companies, both public and private, as legal counsel. This experience enables me not just to provide the legal counsel and legal services requested by clients, but to advise on the real-life application of that legal counsel to businesses in the form of designing and implementing workflows, dataflows, procedures, and policies that are practical, efficient, and tailored to the size, maturity, and resources of a given business or department.
