Bruce B.

Personal and Business Attorney

I help growth-oriented entrepreneurs, international investors, and emerging startups navigate complex US transactional law without the overhead of a traditional mega-firm. As a licensed US (Texas) Attorney, I serve as a trusted fractional General Counsel. I specialize in implementing bulletproof entity structuring, assisting with fundraising, and ensuring regulatory compliance. Core Specializations & Capabilities Corporate Finance & Securities: Structuring venture capital, private equity, Reg D, Regulation Crowdfunding, and Reg A compliance. FinTech & Blockchain: Specialized counsel for digital currency platforms, Web3 protocols, and asset tokenization. IP Protection: Comprehensive US trademark and copyright strategies, filings, and portfolio management. Transactional Excellence: Drafting and negotiating SaaS agreements, complex vendor contracts, M&A documentation, and cross-border commercial agreements. Entity Formation & Governance: Multi-state entity structuring, asset protection, and customized corporate bylaws. Legal opinions. Why Growth-Stage Companies Hire Me Commercial Speed: Fast turnarounds engineered to meet strict fundraising or closing deadlines—including weekends and holidays. Outside Counsel Approach: Focused on building long-term, high-quality strategic relationships, not just one-off document churning. Predictable Pricing: Flexible hourly structures and upfront flat-fee options tailored to specific project scopes. Note: Out of respect for ethical guidelines and platform integrity, formal legal representation begins only after a conflict check is complete and an official Upwork contract is initiated. I do not provide resume copies, work samples, disclose prior client information, or do phone consultations prior to contract opening.
