“…provides us invaluable legal and business counsel that continually exceeds our expectations. We consider them trusted resources who understand how innovative deals are structured.”
My practice is focused on representing growth companies, startups, entrepreneurs and other individuals across a broad spectrum of business transactions and investigations. I advise my clients on all corporate matters from formation through exit. Whether you are launching a new venture, raising a financing round, investigating a sensitive corporate matter, strategizing through complicated corporate governance issues, acquiring a business, hiring an executive, setting up an employee incentive plan, or selling your business, I would love to partner with you in your endeavors. Having worked with many businesses and entrepreneurs, I know that your lawyer’s responsiveness, quality and cost are crucial to your business. I take great pride in getting to know my clients’ businesses so that I can help them navigate through complex issues, avoid costly mistakes, negotiate and document breakthrough transactions, and ultimately succeed in their ventures.
I have been certified by the ACFE as a certified fraud examiner, and dedicate a significant portion of my practice to helping clients investigate potential fraud and other wrongdoing affecting their companies, affiliates, vendors, and other parties. We represent companies, Boards of Directors, special committees, activist shareholder groups and others in complex internal investigations that encompass interviews, fact-finding, document production and review, coordination with external parties, strategic advice, and multi-faceted conclusions. In addition, we help clients stay ahead of the curve through training, policy design, monitoring, and other maintenance steps.
