Parsa G.
I’m a licensed attorney with a J.D. and a strong background in reviewing, negotiating, and drafting a wide range of commercial agreements, especially in the context of international trade and cross-border transactions. I’ve reviewed hundreds of sales contracts, and have experience drafting and negotiating international sale of goods agreements, distribution agreements, supplier/manufacturer contracts, licensing agreements, and service-level agreements (SLAs). My focus is on helping clients reduce risk and protect their interests through clear, enforceable contract language. I also advise on key international elements like Incoterms, dispute resolution mechanisms (including ICC arbitration), payment structuring, governing law, and IP protections. Whether you need a custom agreement, a contract review with redlines, or support structuring a cross-border deal, I bring both precision and practicality to every engagement.

Lawyer Reviews for Author Agreement Projects
Draft Contract for Independent Fiction Writers
"Ryenne knew what I was asking for better than I did. She wrote a very thorough first draft and instructed me on many legal differences between copyrights and licenses. I value her hard work and patience."
Book Illustration Contract
"I had an excellent experience working with Ryenne! She was patient and thorough, taking time to explain why her revisions/suggestions were important. I learned a ton! Ryenne will be my go-to for future contract reviews and she should be yours too!"
Childrens' book author contract with a publisher
"Very pleased with Amber."
Review a publishing contract with an indie press in Arizona (1 book).
"Sheila was wonderful to work with and really helped me with my contract."
Hi, I'm a first time author and I have contract from a legit publisher in the UK. My editor,(also in publishing) marke it up a little with his concerns, for you. Although you would have caught it.
"I was very pleased with all the work Sara S. did as she knew both very technical details about the contract and also had good strategic ideas. One might want to ask how long the project might take, but in some ways that's largely up to you, like how many changes are your requesting and what do you want her to look at. For the flat fee, we got a lot done. And she has expertise in many areas if you look at her reviews, but it also doesn't hurt that she did a book with a hybrid publisher (one that you have to submit your book - one who I actually spoke to at one point, and they have to choose you.) All in all I think I think we covered quite a bit for the flat fee."
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
