Spencer J.
I provide the strategic legal guidance of an in-house general counsel without the full-time overhead. Whether you're launching a startup, scaling your digital business, or navigating complex privacy regulations, I'm here to help. With a practice concentrated in privacy law, digital marketing compliance, and small business operations, I help clients make informed decisions that protect their interests while supporting their growth objectives.
Gene R.
I help founders and business owners set up core contracts, deal documents, and ownership terms so they can form companies, close business sales, bring in partners, and launch products without expensive surprises later. I focus on LLC and corporation formations and operating/shareholder agreements, business sales, founder and partner arrangements (including buyouts and separations), commercial contracts (NDAs, MSAs, privacy policies), and IP/SaaS ownership and licensing tied to those deals. Clients describe me as “the antidote to Big Law inefficiency,” “a legal sniper,” and say I’ve “potentially saved hundreds of thousands” by catching gaps other lawyers missed. I do all my own work, explain options in plain English, and give clear scope and hour ranges before I start. Harvard Law (cum laude), MIT, former Wilson Sonsini attorney, and GC/VP Legal for media and tech companies and venture‑backed startups, with a 5.0 rating and repeat clients on this platform.
Nick G.
My name is Nick Gleason, and I’m an attorney licensed in California and a veteran of the United States Navy. While in law school, during my clerkship with Mob Entertainment, I worked under the General Counsel, drafting cease and desist letters, demand letters, and assignment and licensing agreements. I also worked with outside counsel on copyright infringement matters, helping to protect the interests of the company. Now in my professional practice, I continue to help clients like you protect your interests by offering affordable legal representation for all your contract and copyright needs. I can draft contracts, review proposed agreements for vulnerabilities, and negotiate terms on your behalf, as well as prepare effective cease and desist letters and demand letters tailored to your situation, including in copyright and DMCA-related matters. I will always be fair and transparent with my fees. I’d love to hear from you.

Michelle D.
My career experience has been varied. Although litigation has been a central focus, I’ve served as Of Counsel for a franchise law firm, negotiating contracts with franchisees and vendors to ensure the best terms possible for my client. I have demonstrated acumen in leading and supervising the work of others. As an associate attorney for Shulman Rogers, I oversaw the Summer Intern Program. Throughout my career I directed the work of paralegals and legal receptionists. As a solo practitioner I employed a junior attorney. At each phase I was responsible for the work and performance of another. In my transactional practice I regularly advise clients on agreements, negotiate favorable terms on their behalf, draft agreements, interpret contractual provisions in disputes, provide opinion letters, and represent clients in mediation and arbitration. I’m accustomed to working in high stress, high stakes environments with quick deadlines, demanding and often emotional clients, while performing work that requires great detail, accuracy, and advocacy.

Partnership
Dissolution Agreement
New York
What are the legal steps required to dissolve a partnership?
I am currently in a partnership with another individual in a small business, but due to irreconcilable differences and a significant decline in the business's success, I have decided that it is best to dissolve the partnership. We do not have a formal partnership agreement in place, and I am unsure of the legal steps and requirements involved in dissolving a partnership, such as notifying creditors, dividing assets and liabilities, and terminating any existing contracts. I am seeking guidance on the legal process and potential implications of dissolving the partnership.
Damien B.
Even without an initial partnership agreement, drafting a dissolution agreement can clarify the terms of the dissolution, asset distribution, and responsibilities, reducing potential disputes. Make sure to pay off all outstanding partnership debts and obligations and notify all creditors. Consulting with an attorney experienced in New York partnership law is advisable to navigate the dissolution process effectively and ensure compliance with all legal requirements.

Who manages a general partnership?
I am currently in a general partnership with another individual to run a business. While we share equal ownership and responsibility for the business, I am unsure of who has the authority to make management decisions on behalf of the partnership. I would like to seek the guidance of a lawyer to better understand the management structure of a general partnership and ensure that our business is being managed correctly.
O.T. W.
Your operating agreement should detail who has what responsibilities between the two of you, and it should establish checks and balances for each of your roles.

How can I dissolve a partnership?
I have been in a partnership with a business associate for the past five years, but due to irreconcilable differences and disagreements on the direction of the company, I have decided that it is in my best interest to dissolve the partnership. I would like to know the legal process and steps involved in dissolving a partnership, including any potential liabilities or obligations that may arise during the dissolution.
Christopher N.
Hopefully you have a partnership agreement between the two of you. If so, then the agreement SHOULD provide the steps necessary to wind down and liquidate the partnership. If not, then I highly recommend you consult with an attorney in ... Maryland, to assist with understanding your agreement (oral or otherwise), and how to dissolve the partnership. Good luck

What is a partnership agreement?
I am starting a business with a partner and we are looking to create a partnership agreement. We want to make sure that all of our rights and responsibilities are clearly outlined in the agreement in order to protect both of us. We want to be sure that we have a clear understanding of our obligations to each other and the business. We also want to make sure that our agreement is legally binding.
Darryl S.
A partnership agreement is a legally binding contract between two or more partners that clearly outlines the terms of their business relationship. It details each partner's rights, responsibilities, share of ownership and profits, as well as what happens when a partner leaves or dies. Having a clear partnership agreement is crucial for avoiding future disputes or uncertainties that could undermine the partnership.

Can a partner in a partnership agreement be held liable for the actions of another partner?
I am currently in a partnership agreement with two other individuals, and we have recently encountered a situation where one of the partners engaged in illegal activities on behalf of the partnership. I am concerned about the potential liability that I may face as a result of their actions, and I would like to know if it is possible for a partner to be held personally liable for the actions of another partner in a partnership agreement.
Akash K.
As with most legal questions, the answer is "it depends". In this case, it would depend largely on the relationship between your partner's illegal activities and the partnership - which would also be impacted by the type of partnership, terms of the partnership agreement and any actual or constructive knowledge you and/or your partner had regarding the illegal actions. However, in some cases it would be possible to be held personally liable for your partner's actions.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
