"Alex Nahai Law Office handled contract counsel for my business and made the whole process painless. Alex was responsive, explained the terms in plain English, and flagged the things that actually mattered instead of burying me in legalese. I felt genuinely protected on the deal. Highly recommend for any small business owner who needs contracts done right."

"Michael's expertise and judgment impressed me. I brought him in for contract advisory work, and he quickly asked the questions I hadn't considered, identified the risks that mattered, and set aside the ones I had wrongly prioritized. He changed how I understood the contract. He is an excellent advisor - highly recommended."

8 Yrs Experience
Licensed in MA
Suffolk University Law School

I am a Massachusetts attorney with an MBA and approximately six years of experience advising closely held businesses, business owners, and individuals on contracts, corporate transactions, commercial real estate, and day-to-day business legal issues. My practice focuses on helping clients draft, review, negotiate, and understand agreements that support their business goals while identifying practical legal and financial risks before problems arise. I assist clients with matters including business purchase and sale agreements, commercial leases, independent contractor agreements, confidentiality agreements, operating agreements, entity formation documents, corporate governance materials, and outside general counsel support. I also bring many years of litigation experience involving contract, business, real estate, construction, and ownership disputes, which I believe helps me review agreements with an eye toward clarity, enforceability, and avoiding future disputes. My goal is to provide practical, responsive, and business-minded legal guidance to small businesses, entrepreneurs, and individuals who need clear answers and well-drafted documents without unnecessary complexity.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
