Legal Skills & Experience

  • Value-add Contracting

    A well-drafted, well-executed contract is a game changer. It can increase your revenue and profitability. I go beyond grabbing a template and inserting your information. I seek to understand business priorities and create value-add agreements that protect revenue over the long-term.

    Representative Contract Types:

    services agreements, supply, technology products and services, research & development, licensing, data privacy and security, manufacturing

  • Business Risk Evaluation

    Not all risks are created equal. There’s good risk and bad risk. I am skilled at identifying both, mitigating the bad, and taking full advantage of the good risks to build thriving companies that are adequately protected.

    I am experienced advising on risks and developing solutions when companies are launching new products, reevaluating business strategy, developing new processes and programs, considering strategic partnerships or collaborations, entering into new contractual relationships, or navigating a challenging business relationship.

  • Information Governance/Data Governance

    Information Governance (IG) focuses on providing guidance for how to manage information consistent with laws and regulations. It covers the people, processes and technologies necessary for compliant information and data management. I am experienced at developing an IG framework to set the right foundation for compliant information and data management.

  • Artificial Intelligence & Emerging Technologies

    Using AI-enabled solutions and any emerging technologies (AI, robotics, quantum, etc.) requires an understanding and evaluating the risks and benefits in a rapidly changing regulatory environment.

  • Data Privacy & Cybersecurity

    Using and securing personal and other sensitive information is governed by an ever-changing set of laws and regulations. I have helped navigate the requirements that govern using personal information and securing data in a digital environment.

  • Pre-Litigation Dispute Resolution

    I am experienced at keeping business disputes OUT of court by helping identify and build consensus around solutions both parties can be happy with.
