Top Securities Lawyers in ZIP 98103 | 3 available

I’ve lived in the Pacific Northwest my whole life. I love it here. I grew up in Lake Stevens, WA, and earned my undergraduate and graduate degrees in Seattle. After taking a law school course on “Corporations, Law and Society,” I knew I wanted to help Seattle businesses with their legal services. I came to fully appreciate the impact of business on society and how the law can shape this impact. I appreciate the relationship between business and our communities, and I am passionate about making it easier for businesses to positively impact our community.. I have worked for sole proprietorships, public companies, and non-profits; I currently sit on the board of a non-profit corporation. Before working in the legal field, I worked in the banking and investment industries, the food-service industry, and the technology industry (cloud-computing services). Since joining the legal industry, I have worked for a sole practitioner, a downtown firm, and volunteered for Climate Solutions, a non-profit corporation supporting proposition that clean energy and broadly-shared economic prosperity can go hand-in-hand.. My primary practice areas are securities, business formations, technology contracts, investment advisor regulation, and mergers and acquisitions.. When I’m not in the office, there’s a good chance I’m cooking, relaxing on the couch with my fiancée watching a tv series (all-time favorites are The Wire, Breaking Bad, and Mad Men), or playing or watching sports. I play soccer and golf, and fervently follow too many sports teams: the UW Huskies, Sounders, Arsenal, and Bay Area pro sports teams. I’m also a bit of a self-professed nerd and enjoy reading about technology and developing websites and web applications. My favorite place to visit outside of the Northwest is Lake Tahoe.

I help startups, entrepreneurs, and business owners identify and reach goals. I assist clients with forming and structuring entities, raising capital from investors through equity and debt financings, protecting intellectual property, and drafting contracts to protect the client’s interests. I use the tools and experience I have both as an attorney and entrepreneur to create practical legal strategies for each particular client.. I work as part of a team of entrepreneurial-minded business lawyers who provide practical advice, transparent flat rates, and quick turnaround times.. We use custom technology to decrease costs, increase efficiency, and provide the highest quality legal services at competitive rates. We offer transparent flat rates, so you will know upfront what services you will receive and at what price. We remove unnecessary legalese and craft our documents so they are easier to understand. We are accessible; we keep you informed on your matter and respond promptly to your questions and concerns.. We help businesses with all aspects of startup and operation, including business formations, contracts, intellectual property protection, securities (financing), commercial real estate, and mergers and acquisitions.. Outside the office I enjoy spending time with my wife, two sons, and dog; hanging out outside: hiking, running, backpacking, fly fishing, skiing, BBQing, watching the hops in my backyard grow, and rock climbing. Experimenting with brewing beer; swimming and waterskiing at Lake Chelan; rooting for the Seattle Seahawks; and drinking good coffee and IPAs.
