I am an estate planning and business lawyer. As an estate planner, I help people and their families plan for incapacity, the distribution of their assets to those they want to get them, and the minimization of death taxes. As a business lawyer, I counsel business owners on matters like setting up the business and choosing the right form of entity, contracts, financing, regulatory compliance, taxes and dissolution. I also have expertise in commercial real estate and in federal securities laws.. Estate Planning. As a Montgomery County estate planning attorney, I prepare wills and trusts, and lifetime planning documents for clients. Lifetime planning documents include financial powers of attorney and health care powers of attorney or advance directives. If appropriate for a client’s needs and wishes, I prepare living trusts and provide advice on what a living trust can accomplish, as well as their advantages and disadvantages, the administration of the trust during the life of the grantor, and the Pennsylvania inheritance taxation of trusts. Also as an estate planning lawyer, I counsel clients on non-tax planning issues relating to spouses, such as post-nuptial and pre-nuptial agreements, and a surviving spouse’s elective share.. Business Law. As a business attorney, I provide general corporate and strategic business counseling to executives and owners of private companies. I am experienced with a range of issues, including business formation, mergers and acquisitions, debt and equity financing and succession planning. As a corporate law attorney, I work extensively with both early-stage and mature businesses in several industries, including technology, publishing, retail, commercial real estate, and manufacturing. I counsel clients on contract matters with customers and suppliers, landlords and tenants, employee liability matters and the rights and obligations of company owners. I am also experienced in securities and corporate financing laws and transactions.. In my business law practice, I represent real estate investors, developers and owners in the purchase and sale of real estate and in a wide range of commercial and residential real estate matters. I have experience in negotiating and documenting commercial mortgage loans for both lenders and borrowers, including traditional term loans, lines of credit and construction loans.

In my experience, too many law firms see client projects as potential hours of billable work, rather than opportunities to identify practical solutions that efficiently resolve the client’s problems and enhance their bottom line. I use my many years of legal training, entrepreneurial experience, and corporate marketing and business development skills to assist my clients in identifying and minimizing risks, maximizing opportunities and accomplishing practical legal solutions to their business problems.. I started my first company as an undergrad at Harvard and within three months my products were in dozens of stores across New England. In my early 20’s I tried a number of jobs ranging from Supervisor at a trucking company to crew coach. After studying at the Anderson School of Business Management at UCLA, I had P&L responsibility for a $40 million business as a brand manager for seven years at a major consumer products company. Then, I ran my own marketing consulting company, Blue Sky Resources, for six years.. Next, looking for a new intellectual challenge, I earned my JD at Temple University’s Beasley School of Law and passed the PA and NJ bar exams in 2008. For more than five years, I trained in a small boutique firm working on complex commercial litigation and significant corporate and transactional projects for the named partners who both had large firm experience and expected the best.. My extensive prior business experience combined with my high quality education and legal training allow me to understand my clients' concerns quickly, relate to their priorities, and provide them with practical actionable legal advice that balances reasonable risk with affordable expense to achieve their goals.. There is a clear need in the market for a business lawyer that is approachable, experienced at owning and running a business, and able to explain things calmly and clearly. My first hand business experience gives me a distinct viewpoint that you won’t find with most business attorneys.. Relationships are very important. I can give better advice when I fully understand your business strategy and goals so I ask lots of questions about business fundamentals, situational details, strategy, and goals. I strive to understand the important connections within and around your business. My holistic approach, providing legal guidance within the context of strategic advice, has helped my clients achieve their goals, saved them money, and increased their profitability.
