If you look for an attorney, you will quickly discover that there are literally hundreds, if not thousands, of them in your area. The vast majority are highly competent. Most of them, however, will give you advice that is more likely to protect themselves from being wrong than it is to provide you with the right solution to your problem.

As an experienced San Francisco Business Attorney, I look out for my clients' best interests by taking time to fully understand their situation and their goals and then by providing advice and representation needed to achieve them. I do not take shortcuts. I do not look for the easy answer. I look for the right answer, the right solution, and the right way to get there.

I provide practical and effective answers for business-related legal questions, assistance in finding a way to avoid litigation, and hard-hitting, no-nonsense legal representation when litigation is unavoidable. My focus includes:

• Corporate Law/ General Counsel
• Complex Business Litigation
• Intellectual Property Litigation
• Non-Compete Agreement Litigation (Enforcement and Defense)
• Insurance Defense
• Commercial Real Estate Litigation
• Employment Law Litigation
• IP and Trade Secrets Litigation
• LLC, LLP, and Partnership Dissolutions
• Business-to-Business Contract Disputes
• Securities Litigation
• Intellectual Property
• Mergers and Acquisitions
• Succession Planning
• Bankruptcy
• Franchises and Other Types of Business Marketing
• Government Regulation
• Breach of Fiduciary Duty
• Licensing and Commercial Contracts
• Sales Commission Disputes
• Trade Secrets
• Litigation and Dispute Resolution
• Contract Remedies
• Business Litigation
• Business Formation
• Business and Corporate Services

As a respected San Francisco Business Attorney, I have nearly 20 years of state and federal litigation experience. I take a thorough, comprehensive, business-minded approach to the legal aspects of every case — from investigation, documentation, and evidence preparation to fully briefing each legal issue involved and litigating the matter in court.

But while the quality of my Firm's work rivals that of much larger firms, the quality of our client service is what sets us apart from them. Everyone in our office is friendly, helpful, and easy to talk with. We are capable of talking about the law using real language, not legalese. We know where our phones are; we know how to use them.

One more way my Firm is different: the reasonable price you will pay for our services.

As a skilled San Francisco Business Attorney, I am admitted to practice in California and Illinois and routinely represent clients in state and federal courts of both states. I have personally taken over 400 depositions concerning high-end, highly complex business disputes and have handled dozens of courtroom trials.

My clients also benefit from the reputation and respect my Firm has earned from others in the legal community. I am able to draw on the knowledge and expertise of top attorneys and experts in various fields to assist me whenever necessary. My Firm has grown and thrived because satisfied clients have referred their close friends and business associates to us.

The skills required for effectiveness as an attorney and those required for effective business leadership can be very different from one another. In fact, there are a lot of very good, accomplished lawyers who do not really understand the needs of a business. Likewise, there are countless highly-paid business executives who would make very poor attorneys.

I represent business clients from across the nation in corporate law concerns that range almost as far. What I provide is strategic advice that is based on a thorough understanding of your short-term and long-term business goals and designed specifically to achieve those objectives — not just to keep our Firm on "safe" ground.

My corporate law practice includes:

• General counsel services regarding transactions, contracts, mergers and acquisitions, divestitures, and more
• Risk analysis consulting regarding liability concerns, regulatory compliance, OSHA, workers' compensation issues, employment law, and more
• Negotiation, drafting, and review of U.S. and international contracts and agreements, transactional documents, and more
• Commercial litigation including insurance defense, intellectual property litigation, real estate litigation, fraud litigation, and more

My experience includes cases involving international arbitration agreements, U.S. and international construction and procurement contracts, and intellectual property protection and enforcement. My Firm offers large-firm quality work in these areas and for many other business concerns — without the large-firm overhead and cost.
