I am a business attorney focused on practical, efficient contract drafting, review, and negotiation for healthcare organizations and growth-stage and established businesses. My work includes commercial agreements such as NDAs, MSAs/SOWs, leases, vendor and services agreements, SaaS, and employment and severance agreements. I partner closely with clients to identify key legal and business risks, deliver clear, business-minded redlines with concise issue summaries, and keep transactions moving. Clients value my responsive turnaround, judgment, and ability to balance risk with commercial objectives.

I offer flat/fixed fees rather than hourly work to help lower your legal costs and align our interests. I specialize in contract law and focus on making sure your contract is clear, protects your interests and meets your needs. You can expect fast, straightforward communication from me, making sure you understand every step. With my experience, you'll get a detailed review of your contract at a fair, fixed price, without any surprises. I have over 30 years of business and legal experience that I bring to your project. I graduated from The University of Texas School of Law with High Honors in 1993 and practiced at Texas' largest law firm. I have founded companies and so understand how to be helpful as both a lawyer and business owner.

"Heather reviewed a six-product SaaS family that shares one set of terms: five legal questions plus a full drafting scope for a new penetration-testing product, all for a flat fee. The memo was thorough and practical, with insertable language for every question, and the Probe drafting covered everything we asked for. Her revision round caught a real conflict between two remedy clauses that we would have missed. She was clear about the limits of her engagement up front and held to the scope she quoted. The language is now live across five products. Recommended for SaaS terms work."

"Steven was so quick and thorough! I wasn't sure what to expect because this is my first time working with a contract attorney, but he made this process so easy.

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.

View Trustpilot Review

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.
