Recent Review for Dolan W.

"Dolan provided thorough legal review of my startup equity package (employment offer, PLG addendum, NDA/non-compete). His redlined revisions were professional and strategic - the CEO accepted most of his recommendations, which significantly strengthened my position. Key value: identified Illinois Freedom to Work Act issues, restructured IP assignment protections, and added make-whole provisions for board approval delays. Sophisticated analysis at a reasonable price. Highly recommend for startup equity agreements and employment law matters."
