Business and Transactional Work

I’ll help you get deals done

Many people are often reluctant to have an attorney represent them in a transaction because they fear the attorney will frustrate the deal they want to make. The role of an attorney, however, is merely to facilitate transactions while protecting their client’s interests – whether it be a residential home purchase or the sale of a business for millions of dollars. I pride myself on careful thought, creativity, and tact to ensure transactions get done without frustrating future deals with the opposing party. Business is, after all, not only about getting a good deal today, but also ensuring a good deal tomorrow.

I make the process as clear as possible

Step 1: Contact me to arrange a meeting. I will listen to your goals – both short- and long-term – and give you an estimate before you hire me.

Step 2: Conduct all necessary due diligence (if any) to ensure my clients have all the necessary facts before making a deal.

Step 3: Negotiate and draft the transaction documents.

Step 4: Close the transaction.

FAQs

What are your fees?

I charge an hourly rate of $300, and bill to the nearest tenth of an hour (six-minute increments). Before commencing any work, I meet with clients to explain the process and give an estimate of the total fees that will be likely be incurred. Ultimately, asking an attorney for an estimate on a transaction is a bit like asking a contractor for an estimate on remodeling a kitchen: neither of us can give a reliable number without seeing where you are at and what you are looking to accomplish.

How long will the process take?

Every transaction is different and operate on different timelines. Some residential home purchases can be inked in a matter of days. The sale of a business operating in a heavily-regulated industry can take months. Like my fees, however, I meet with clients to explain the likely timeline and certain items that may holdup or make the process go faster.
