Las Vegas, Nevada
14 Yrs Experience
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

Software Agreement

California

Asked on Oct 6, 2022

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.

Contracts

Development Agreement

California

Asked on Jan 17, 2022

Are these clauses safe to sign into in an NDA?

A company approached me to help them develop a prototype of a software application, so they can secure a round of funding. To this end, they gave me an NDA to sign, after which they would divulge their design artifacts for my review. Good so far. But the NDA has these terms which I am concerned about: Intellectual property: At any point during and/or as a direct result of the signing of this Agreement when you create something for the purpose of fulfilling work for (co), said creation is considered work-made-for-hire and is owned by (co). This includes copyrightable material, trademarks, patents (a whole list), whether developed by you alone of in collaboration with anyone else (I am alone). The company owns everything. I got it. Now coming to another point: Indemnification Provision: if (co) of a (co) partner gets sued as a result of your work, you agree to step in and pay for all relevant costs, unless (co) has expressly instructed you in writing that you carry out the task for which (co) or its partner was sued While I would never knowingly carry out something illegal or attract lawsuit, as an individual I have limited knowledge. And besides, I feel this will leave me personally open to legal liability for indefinite period of time, even if someone else takes my code in continues development on it later Are my concerns legit? How should this be altered (if it should) so it is fair to me (if this is unfair)?

Cameron S.

Answered Feb 18, 2022

These are not appropriate provisions for an NDA. An NDA should only cover the disclosure of confidential information - not development and assignment of intellectual property. You should not be transfering ownership of IP (or anything you develop) under an NDA. It should also not include an indemnification provision. Both of these clauses are appropriate for a development agreement or a professional services agreement. Putting this aside, if this were a development/professional services agreement, then you probably would want to protect any background technology or pre-existing works that you already own prior to the agreement (and would license the (co) rights to this background technology if necessary). And, you should not be indemnifying unless you intentionally used third party materials or knowingly stole another party's work to complete the development for (co). This is because it is not feasible for you to know what trademarks or patents are out in the world. If what you develop infringes, that should not be your responsibility/risk. You probably aren't getting paid enough to take on that risk. Copyright requires knowing that you stole copyrightable material, so the knowledge qualifier described above means that the (co) is protected under the indemnification for copyright infringement issues caused by you.

Settlement Agreement

California

Asked on Dec 17, 2023

Can we renegotiate a settlement agreement?

I recently entered into a settlement agreement with the other party in a dispute, but now I believe that the terms of the agreement are no longer fair and equitable. As such, I am looking to renegotiate the agreement. I have attempted to discuss this with the other party, but they have not been receptive to the idea. I am now seeking legal advice to determine if there is any way to renegotiate the agreement and what the best course of action would be.

Joseph M.

Answered Jan 26, 2024

If you enter into a binding contract you have to honour the terms unless there was fraud, mistake or misrepresentation as a basis to set aside or renegotiate.

Severance Agreement

California

Asked on Jul 21, 2023

Can a severance agreement be digital?

I recently accepted a voluntary severance package from my employer and have been asked to sign a severance agreement. I am curious if this agreement can be signed digitally, as I am not currently in the same city as my employer. I am looking for advice on the legalities of digital agreements and any potential risks associated with signing a severance agreement digitally.

Christina M.

Answered Jul 27, 2023

In 1999 the California Legislature enacted the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act (the “UETA”), Civ. Code, §§ 1633.1 et seq., which provides that when a law requires a record to be in writing or requires a signature, an electronic record or signature satisfies the law. The law requires that any contract entered into between two parties may not be denied legal enforceability simply because of the use of an electronic signature. This has also be upheld in the employment law setting in some case law.

Parking Agreement

California

Asked on Apr 12, 2025

Can I terminate a parking agreement if the landlord has breached the terms?

I entered into a parking agreement with my landlord, which stated that I would have exclusive access to a designated parking spot for a monthly fee. However, the landlord has repeatedly allowed other tenants to use my spot, making it unavailable to me on several occasions. I have brought this issue to the landlord's attention multiple times, but they have failed to rectify the situation. Can I terminate the parking agreement due to the landlord's breach of the terms?

Abbi N.

Answered Apr 19, 2025

What does the parking agreement say? Is there an option to terminate the agreement for breach?

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.
