Licensed in CA NV, NY, 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

"Daron was excellent for helping with my prenup! He was incredibly responsive and worked with me when we had to make last minute changes to our plan due to the other party’s lawyers making some big mistakes, which Daron was able to correct! He was also great about explaining the process in simplified terms that I could understand."

Contracts Legal Questions and Answers

Contracts

Content Creator Agreement

California

Asked on Sep 9, 2024

Can a content creator agreement be terminated by the platform without prior notice or warning?

I am a content creator who has been using a popular online platform to showcase and monetize my work for the past year. Recently, without any prior notice or warning, the platform terminated my content creator agreement, effectively shutting down my account and removing all my content from the platform. This has caused significant financial loss and distress, as I heavily relied on the platform for income. I would like to know if the platform had the right to terminate my agreement without any notice or warning, and if there are any legal remedies available to me in this situation.

Jonathan W.

Answered Sep 10, 2024

Depends on what the content creator agreement with the platform says about termination. It likely has the platform covered. If they didn't follow the terms of the agreement, you might have a claim. The claim may be limited in damages as most of these contracts, if well written, have limitations on damages under the contract.

Can a SaaS company terminate and agreement with a client?

We are a SaaS company that wants to get out of a relationship with a client. What are our options?

Michael M.

Answered Oct 7, 2022

The broad general answer is that all agreements if drafted carefully have a termination provision. Reasons can be for cause or for no cause. This provision like all others in the contract are negotiated by the parties.

Employee Separation Agreement

California

Asked on Jun 27, 2023

Pros & cons of employee separation agreements?

I am a small business owner and I am considering offering an Employee Separation Agreement to an employee who is leaving the company. I want to understand the pros and cons of this type of agreement so that I can make the best decision for my business.

Gagandeep K.

Answered Jun 30, 2023

There are several reasons for using an employee separation agreement - it can be used to protect confidential information and IP, obtain general liability waiver for certain legal claims (e.g., wrongful termination), offer an employee certain benefits and severance pay, and include additional provisions (e.g., non-disparagement clause so the employee cannot spread negative information about the company, return of company equipment, etc.). Just as an employer is not legally required to offer a severance agreement, an employee is not required by law to sign a severance agreement. However, an employee may be more likely to sign a reasonable, balanced severance agreement.

Repayment Agreement

California

Asked on Dec 19, 2024

Can a repayment agreement be enforced if it was made verbally and not in writing?

I recently loaned a significant amount of money to a friend in need, and we agreed on a repayment plan where they would pay me back in monthly installments. However, we did not put this agreement in writing, and it was purely a verbal agreement. Now, my friend is refusing to make the payments, and I'm wondering if I have any legal recourse to enforce the repayment agreement even though it was not formalized in writing.

Dolan W.

Answered Dec 31, 2024

I'm so sorry about your situation! My name is Dolan. The answer is yes. Under California law, a breach of contract occurs when one party fails to fulfill a legal duty the contract created and causes damages for the plaintiff. (California Civil Jury Instructions Number 303.) The measure of damages is the amount that will compensate the aggrieved party for all the detriment caused thereby or likely to result therefrom. (Cal. Civ. Code § 3300.) Parties can also seek '"specific performance" of the agreement under section 3388 of the civil code. This applies regardless of whether the agreement was written or done orally. Typically, the aggrieved party is entitled to be returned to the same position they were in before the breach. My recommendation? Consider sending a demand letter. I have a template I drafted that you can use here - https://www.contractscounsel.com/t/document-form-checkout/119 Best of luck to you! So you can send this in any way want. It can be text, email, certified mail, or in person. I usually send letters via email because it’s faster and cheaper.

Contractor Agreement

California

Asked on Apr 15, 2025

Can a contractor agreement be modified without written consent?

I recently entered into a contractor agreement with a company to provide my services for a specific project, but the company has now informed me that they want to make changes to the terms of the agreement, including the scope of work and payment terms, without obtaining my written consent. I am unsure if they have the legal right to modify the agreement without my agreement and would like to understand my rights in this situation.

Dawn K.

Answered Apr 26, 2025

Without seeing the terms in question, this is a general contracts answer: 1. Does the contract itself specify how it can be modified, changed or amended? If so, the contract itself should tell you whether this is okay. 2. If the contract doesn't state how, it can usually be modified, changed or amended, if you both have "mutual" agreement to change any terms, and in writing. 3. If they are trying to change it on their side only, and it is not permitted in the original agreement, this may not be allowed and depending on the terms to be changed, and to what extent, it may be some level of breach. Again, I do not have the contract, but I understand the terms to be changed include scope and payment, which may be enough of a change from the original agreement to potentially create a new one to substitute- with your consent. Hope this helps.

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.
