My Vision

YOUR LEGAL PARTNER

There is very little that is “small” about owning a small business.

 

The wins are huge, and the losses feel even more so. The sleepless nights - checking your phone and hoping it's not 5am and time to wake up without having slept - aren’t small. The weight on your shoulders isn’t small either, knowing that your clients, employees, and family are all depending on you. 

 

I get it. I’m the son of a small business owner and have represented small businesses my entire career. I've also worked, both as outside counsel and in-house, for very large companies with significant resources. I understand the challenges facing both. 

 

Here's what I do: I care. I bring passion for YOUR company to my representation of you. I know you don't want to pay for legal services - you'd rather reinvest that money into marketing, or bonuses for your employees, or one of the dozens of other great ideas you have waiting. 

​

My vision is to be a partner with you to minimize your legal spend, keep your customers and employees happy, and keep your business running smoothly.  That's it. 

​

Learn more about my professional background and why you want me to be your outside general counsel or to partner with your existing legal team.
