Your questions answered; your issues addressed
By trusted legal counsel: caring, responsive, honest & smart

As a Harvard and NYU-educated attorney with over 30 years of experience, I guide entrepreneurs through the complex legal landscape of building and scaling businesses, including artificial intelligence and emerging technologies. My diverse background spans startup general counsel, Big Law, litigation and Fortune 500 in-house roles and provides me with the multifaceted perspective founders need.
I understand the critical challenges that can make or break a venture: securing intellectual property, scaling operations, navigating regulatory frameworks, attracting top talent and forming strategic partnerships. Whether you’re launching your first startup or leading an established company into new ventures, I provide tailored legal counsel combined with the business insight that comes from understanding the founder’s journey firsthand.
In sectors dominated by industry giants, startups must carve distinctive paths to success. I help clients develop strategies that leverage their unique advantages while structuring partnerships and alliances that protect their interests. My approach emphasizes building ethical, trustworthy practices that create sustainable competitive advantages and robust governance structures designed for long-term impact.
My passion lies in shepherding visionary entrepreneurs through uncertainty and complexity. If you’re pursuing an ambitious mission to transform industries through innovation, I’m here to provide the legal framework and strategic guidance needed to turn your vision into lasting success.
Whether you’re launching a new venture or scaling an existing business, I’m ready to discuss how I can support your goals. If we’re not the right fit, I’ll connect you with specialized experts who can best serve your needs. The frontiers you’re exploring will define the future, and I’m committed to clearing the legal obstacles that stand between you and maximum impact.
