Colin G.

California-licensed business attorney. 5+ years advising Fortune 500 companies. Best Lawyers "Ones to Watch" 2024 & 2025. I operate independently — no hand-holding needed. I draft and negotiate contracts, advise on business risk and structure, and serve as fractional general counsel for founders and operators who need senior legal thinking without the cost of full-time in-house counsel. What I help with: Contracts & Transactional Work — Commercial agreements, NDAs, service contracts, vendor deals, partnership structures. Tight, strategic, and plain where they should be. Business & Legal Strategy — Risk assessment, operational structuring, deal advisory. I help you see legal problems before they become expensive ones. Startup & Investor Advisory — I'm a founder myself (wearable tech, currently in prototype and pre-raise). I know what investors scrutinize and what founders overlook. Fractional General Counsel — On-call legal coverage on a monthly basis. Senior attorney judgment without the overhead. Recognized by Best Lawyers two years running. Former associate at Wolfsdorf Rosenthal LLP, where I managed 430+ active matters independently and built workflows adopted firm-wide. If you need clean documents, clear advice, and someone who delivers without being managed — Hire me on Upwork.
