How I help your business
Whether you are launching a new venture, managing a growing team, or navigating a dispute, I bring BigLaw training and real-world business experience to every matter — without the BigLaw overhead.
Business Law & Transactions: Entity formation, operating agreements, contract drafting and review, and day-to-day general counsel support for growing businesses.
Employer-Side Employment Defense: Defense of California employers against wrongful termination, harassment, discrimination, and wage and hour claims.
Workplace Policies & Handbooks: California-compliant employee handbooks tailored to your business size. The right policies before a problem arises cost far less than defending a claim after one does.
Restaurant & Hospitality: Deep experience with the unique legal challenges facing restaurants, hotels, and hospitality businesses across California.
Nonprofits: Formation, 501(c)(3) applications, governance documents, and ongoing compliance for California nonprofits and charitable organizations.

Let's talk about your business
I offer initial consultations to get acquainted with your situation and discuss how I can help. No obligation, just an honest conversation about whether legal counsel makes sense for your matter.
