Businesses
We work with founders and growth-stage companies that want clean contracts, fast execution, and leverage when things go sideways.
What We Do
We translate courtroom lessons into deal terms — allocating risk clearly, locking in performance, and speeding signatures without sabotaging advantageous deals.
When conflict hits, we pursue a business result first: narrow the issues, create leverage, and settle on favorable terms — or try the case if that’s the best path to value.
How We Think
Say “yes,” safely. We’re pro-innovation. If an idea makes business sense, we show you how to structure it so legal risk serves the plan — not the other way around.
We’ve seen how disputes start, escalate, and end. That experience leads to sharper contracts with fewer opportunities for a counterparty to drag you into a dispute.
Speed with Guardrails
We deploy templates that fit your model, fallback positions that close gaps quickly, and escalation playbooks when negotiations stall.
Why It Works
Our goals are simple: help you avoid costly disputes — and prevail if one arises. Clients come to us when they want contracts that perform in the real world and disputes resolved like business problems, not science projects.
We are proud to be the go-to law firm a leading accounting firm recommends when its clients start new ventures or face complex disputes — so legal and financial strategies align at the outset.
