"Heather reviewed and redlined the client services agreement for my automation consultancy, including a CCPA service-provider addendum and an AI systems addendum, plus California auto-renewal requirements. Two things stood out. When I pushed back on her redline and reworked a clause myself, she engaged with the reasoning rather than defending her own draft, and where I had spotted a real conflict between an indemnity provision and a liability cap she confirmed it and told me exactly how to fix it. Second, she did not stop at the paperwork. She flagged that the contract allocation was helpful but that an operational pre-launch check would be the stronger protection, which is the kind of thing you only get from someone thinking about whether you actually stay out of trouble rather than whether the document is defensible. Clear, specific, and worth it."

"Alton reviewed and finalized two complex agreements for us: an Independent Contractor Agreement and a Phantom Equity Agreement with Section 409A compliance, cross-border considerations, and layered compensation. We came in with detailed drafts and a review package, and he worked through every item methodically. He identified the right issues, asked the right questions, and delivered clean execution-ready documents on time. Highly recommend for anyone with executive-level contractor or equity compensation work."

14 Yrs Experience
Licensed in NY CA, NV, TX
Western State University College of Law

I am a business attorney and former in-house corporate attorney with more than a decade of experience helping companies navigate contracts, commercial relationships, day-to-day operations, and disputes. My practice includes drafting, reviewing, and negotiating commercial agreements, licenses, leases, vendor and service agreements, and other business arrangements. Licensed in Nevada, California, New York, and Texas, I also hold an Executive MBA. My goal is to serve as practical, long-term outside counsel to small businesses and entrepreneurs that value responsiveness, sound judgment, and advice grounded in commercial realities - not merely technical legal answers. I handle disputes when necessary, but much of the value I bring lies in identifying issues early, preserving business relationships, and preventing avoidable conflicts. I do not bill separately for routine phone calls. I want clients to feel comfortable calling before a small concern becomes an expensive problem, and I am always happy to have an initial conversation to see if the fit is right for you. www.linkedin.com/in/maxkelner

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.
