      About
I am a veteran of Skadden and Proskauer, two of the most highly regarded law firms in the nation.
I have over 30 years of experience specializing in corporate, securities, venture capital, transactional, corporate governance, contract and litigation matters. I have represented numerous companies, both public and private, on a wide variety of complex legal matters, including in connection with organizational documents, operating agreements, shareholder agreements, fiduciary duties, M&A, and reorganizations.
I have drafted and negotiated hundreds of complex legal documents, including partnership agreements, merger agreements, asset… read more purchase agreements, stock purchase agreements, PPMs, subscription agreements, indentures and other debt instruments, preferred stock certificates, shareholder agreements, operating agreements, voting agreements and employment agreements.
My current practice generally runs to addressing issues for small companies and startups.
