Our business practice focuses on the legal infrastructure organizations need to operate confidently and compliantly. We serve as outside counsel for companies that want experienced legal judgment without building an in-house department, and we provide targeted support on high-stakes transactions, governance matters, and online-platform risk. We work with in house counsel with respect to unique challenges, threats and compliance issues. Because regulatory scrutiny can quickly escalate into civil or criminal exposure, we also handle related defense and government-investigations matters—see our Criminal Defense & Government Investigations page.
Contracts, Transactions & Commercial Relationships
We structure, review, and negotiate the agreements that form the backbone of day-to-day operations, including:
- Service, vendor, and licensing agreements
- Technology and SaaS contracts
- Professional services agreements
- Strategic partnerships and joint ventures
- NDAs, confidentiality agreements, and IP protections
- Content-production and media-related agreements
Our approach is to produce clear, reliable contracts that minimize ambiguity and give clients predictable, enforceable results.
Corporate Structure, Strategy & Risk Management
We counsel clients on governance and strategic risk, including:
- Bylaws, operating agreements, governance frameworks, and board procedures including intrastate, interstate and international activities
- Risk-spotting in business models and operational practices
- Policies for internal controls, conflicts of interest, and decision-making authority
- Compliance protocols for regulated business activities
- Assisting in navigating with statutory and regulatory changes
Our guidance emphasizes stability, clarity, and defensible decision-making, which are qualities that reduce downstream disputes and risks.
Digital Operations & Online Liability (Including Section 230)
For businesses that operate online, we advise on the unique legal issues surrounding digital presence, user interaction, and content exposure. This includes:
- Terms of use and privacy policies
- Platform-moderation practices
- User-generated content and reputational risk
- Defamation and content-removal strategies
- Section 230 immunity analysis for platforms hosting user content
- Structuring internal protocols for reporting, takedown, jailing and review procedures
We help clients understand where Section 230 protects them, and where it does not, and develop practical systems that reduce the risk of litigation tied to online operations.
Outside Counsel Services
Many clients rely on us for ongoing advisory support, where we function as a steady, accessible resource for:
- Strategic planning
- Contract review
- Regulatory changes affecting operations
- Risk assessments in connection with major decisions
- Coordination with specialists when needed
This model provides practical legal judgment without the cost of a full-time legal department.
