A contract earns its money on the worst day of the relationship — when someone stops paying, walks out of the deal, or copies what wasn't theirs. That's the day I draft for. Most agreements read fine until you hit one of those moments. Then the gaps show: termination that's vague on who owes what, IP that was never clearly assigned, indemnity tilted toward the other side, payment terms that only work while everyone stays friendly. That's where I go first. Building from scratch or fixing one that's already cost you something, the instinct is the same — get to the places deals actually break, and close them before they open. I work across the US, UK, Canada, the Gulf, Singapore, India, and cross-border deals: MSAs, NDAs, SaaS and service agreements, founder and JV agreements, IP and licensing, non-compete and non-solicitation, equity and vesting, employment and contractor agreements, website terms, privacy policies, influencer contracts. Each one drafted to the law that governs it. A non-compete that holds in the US is close to worthless in India — and that's the difference between a clause that protects you and one that only looks like it does. So what do you actually get? On a fresh draft, a clean agreement and a clear sense of where your real protections sit, so you're signing something you understand rather than trusting on faith. On a review, a tracked redline that shows you exactly what I'd change and why it matters to you — not a marked-up file you're left to decode. Either way, you'll understand your own contract better at the end than you did at the start. LL.M. in Corporate Law, with focused training in drafting, IP, and cross-border enforcement. Startups, SMBs, and law firms work with me regularly.
