"I had the pleasure of working with Laura B. on some recent legal matters, and I genuinely can’t recommend her enough. From start to finish, Laura was professional, responsive, and incredibly efficient. What really stood out to me was how thorough and proactive she was — she didn’t just check the boxes, she went above and beyond to make sure everything was done properly and on time. Legal work can feel overwhelming, but Laura made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She explained everything clearly, answered all my questions promptly, and stayed one step ahead the entire way. I never had to chase her for updates — she was always on top of it, which gave me a ton of peace of mind. It’s rare to find someone who combines legal expertise with such a down-to-earth, approachable style. I felt like I was in really good hands the whole time. I’ll absolutely be working with Laura again for any legal needs that come up in the future, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a sharp, dependable, and genuinely helpful attorney."

Unique Hybrid Background ➲ Deep Legal, Tech & Commercial Experience More by pure chance than design, I arrived late in life to pursue a career in law. My background spans more than 3 decades across Information Technology, entrepreneurship & the legal profession supporting my claim to being a 'Deep Generalist'. What is a 'Deep Generalist'? 'The professionals who develop into really great client advisors are deep generalists.' Quote from Warren Bennis. From 2013 I worked for established boutique property, finance & commercial law firms + an award-winning #newlaw firm of senior lawyers (formerly Nexus Law Group, now merged with Arch.law) before founding my digital law firm Blue Ocean Law Group in 2017. I also worked part-time for 2 years as a freelance online expert across all aspects of Australian Law with JustAnswer (H.Q. in San Francisco) and volunteered at the Caxton Legal Centre to give back to the community. Now I offer pro bono (free) legal assistance at my discretion. My achievements in the law are best reflected in the high number of settlements where civil litigation has been avoided, court judgements (incl. successful appeals) in my clients' favour & [90+] testimonials which can be seen on the blueocean.law [700+] page website which offers tons [585+] of both free & paid innovative legal products & resources. My personal experience as a client on the other side of legal matters affords me a unique perspective and goes some way to explaining my passion for the reinvention of the delivery of legal services. I am an early adopter of technology + gadgets, an avid reader and an animal lover. In January 2023, I joined the IAPP – International Association of Privacy Professionals and became a Certified Information Privacy Professional – United States by gaining the highly valued gold-standard ANSI-Accredited CIPP/US credential. I followed this up in August 2023, by obtaining the Certified in CyberSecurity qualification form ISC(2). Pre-Law Background From 1992 to 2002, I worked for Accenture as an IT Project Manager across APAC (including long-term project assignments in New Zealand & Singapore). I started a small business side hustle in 1997 and in 2003 I left Accenture to become a full-time entrepreneur in the transport industry. I later expanded into the mezzanine property development finance market as well as venturing into small-scale property development.Unique Hybrid Background

Franchise Agreement

New York

Asked on Nov 8, 2024

What information should be included in a Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD)?

I am considering purchasing a franchise and have been provided with a Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) by the franchisor. However, I am unsure about what specific information should be included in the FDD and what I should be looking for. I want to make an informed decision and ensure that all necessary information is provided to me as a potential franchisee, so I would like to know what details are typically included in an FDD to protect my interests.

Danny J.

Answered Dec 22, 2024

The Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) is a critical tool for evaluating a franchise opportunity. It contains a wealth of information that's essential for making an informed decision about purchasing a franchise. While the FDD is designed to provide transparency, interpreting its contents can be challenging. Each of these items contains nuances that could significantly impact your investment and future business operations. For instance: a) The litigation history can reveal potential red flags about the franchisor's business practices. b) The financial performance representations may or may not be included, and understanding what this means for your decision is crucial. c) The renewal, termination, and transfer provisions can have long-term implications for your business flexibility. Here are the top 5 key components of a Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD): 1) Franchisor's business experience 2) Initial fees and estimated investment 3) Ongoing fees (royalties, marketing) 4) Territory rights 5) Financial performance representations And there are up to 22 important terms to review and analyze in a comprehensive FDD. It's crucial to carefully examine all sections to fully understand the franchise opportunity. Given the complexity and importance of this document, it would be prudent to have a thorough professional review. As an experienced business attorney, I could: 1) Analyze each section of the FDD in detail 2) Identify any unusual terms or potential risks 3) Compare this FDD to industry standards 4) Advise you on questions to ask the franchisor 5) Help you understand the long-term implications of the franchise agreement Would you like to discuss your specific FDD in more detail and ensure you're making a fully informed decision about this franchise opportunity?

Intellectual Property License Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Jun 11, 2025

Can an Intellectual Property License Agreement be terminated if the licensee fails to meet certain performance obligations?

I am a small business owner who recently entered into an Intellectual Property License Agreement with a larger company to use their patented technology in my products. The agreement includes performance obligations that the licensee (me) must meet, such as achieving minimum sales targets. However, due to unforeseen market challenges, I am struggling to meet these obligations. I need to know if the licensor has the right to terminate the agreement if I fail to meet these performance requirements, and what recourse I may have in such a situation.

Christopher N.

Answered Jun 13, 2025

The short answer is, as will most legal questions: it depends, but likely yes. Assuming your agreement is with a sophisicated patent holder, the terms of resolving that relationship are more than likely detailed in the agreement which you both signed. We highly recommend consulting with an experienced business attorney in North Carolina that can help you negotiate a resolution, or help you cancel the agreement with as little pain as possible. Good luck.

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.
