About Me

I am a business and corporate lawyer specializing in the area of corporate securities law. I help entrepreneurs, start up companies and growing businesses by custom crafting all the needed documentation including a private placement memorandum (PPM) to keep them in compliance with the ever changing regulatory laws.

Through my in depth experience working with Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issues, I am intimately aware of the pitfalls faced by small corporate issuers.

My practice areas also include real estate acquisition and syndication, corporate governance and partnership law, and mergers & acquisitions.
