Cecilia O.
With 15 years of extensive transactional/contracts experience reviewing and negotiating commercial contracts including a wide variety of purchase orders and contracts and non-disclosure agreements (NDA), I believe I can immediately contribute to the continued success of your team. I have been commended for a range of valuable skills—excellent contract management and contract administration, legal research, risk analysis, drafting and negotiations, and strategic thinking. I have worked as a legal consultant for 10+ years and I have reviewed over 7,500 contracts through this position. Contracts I have reviewed include but not limited to purchase orders, commercial and construction contracts, equipment rental agreements, non-disclosure, confidentiality, vendor agreements, service agreements, site access agreements, international agreements, request for proposals (RFP), bids and government contracts. These experiences have enabled me to master the ability to work independently and expeditiously to identify and assess issues and provide legally sound recommendations, consistent with good business practices. I have led teams (sales, insurance and management) to successfully negotiate contract terms with customers. Effective Communicator and Negotiator. I am a people person, and for the past 13 years, I have acquired excellent oral and written communication skills that enable me to interact and negotiate effectively with stakeholders at all levels. I am a self-starter with a strong work ethic. I have a high degree of resourcefulness, diligence, and dependability. Most important, I adapt to changing priorities quickly, thriving in an environment with high volume and short turnaround deadlines. My experience over the years allows me to transfer my skills to all types of contracts to meet the client’s needs. I am hopeful to provide similar legal expertise, effective contract administration and leadership to your organization. It would be a pleasure to meet within the next few weeks and discuss how my qualifications, experience, and capabilities will best fit the needs of your outfit.

SAFE Note
Connecticut
When to use a SAFE Note?
I am a small business owner looking to raise funds for my business. I have been exploring different financing options, and I have recently come across SAFE Notes. I'm not sure when to use a SAFE Note, and how it could benefit my business. I am hoping to learn more about how SAFE Notes work and when they should be used.
Thomas L.
SAFEs are used by growth capital technology startups who are planning to sell multiple rounds of preferred stock to investors. A SAFE is a stock warrant, meaning, the pre-purchase of a later issuance of stock. If you are planning to sell multiple rounds of preferred stock to investors, then a SAFE is a quick way to raise smaller amounts of capital in advance of selling a big preferred stock round.

Stock Purchase Agreement
Washington
Stock purchase agreement and termination rights?
I am currently a shareholder in a startup company and I am looking to purchase additional stock in the company. I am concerned about the termination rights associated with the stock purchase agreement, as I want to ensure that I am protected in the event of a dispute or termination of the agreement. I am looking for advice from a lawyer to ensure that my rights and interests are protected.
Merry K.
You can submit a request for a review through ContractsCounsel and WA State attorneys will bid on your job. You can also find WA State attorneys through wsba.org. I'm not able to review this kind of agreement myself, but my words of advice are to not put all your investment eggs in one basket - diversify your investments into real estate, stable and secure stock, etc. Too many people put all their money into the company they work for, and lose everything when their company goes bankrupt.
Investments
Common Stock Purchase Agreement
Texas
What are the key provisions to include in a Common Stock Purchase Agreement?
I am in the process of negotiating a Common Stock Purchase Agreement with a potential investor for my startup, and I would like to understand the essential provisions that should be included in the agreement to protect both parties' interests, such as the purchase price, number of shares, representations and warranties, conditions precedent, and any restrictions on transferability or voting rights.
Darryl S.
The specific terms (such as whether to give any voting or veto rights for example) will depend on factors like your company's stage, the investor's sophistication level, and the investment amount or percentage of the company the investor is acquiring. Consider having experienced counsel review the agreement, as the long-term implications of certain provisions can significantly impact your company's future governance, ability to raise funds and options to bring on other investors or key employees. Early stage companies often have significant restrictions on transferability of the stock, a ROFR clause and claw-back options. The provisions you mention are also required as they are core to the business terms. Hope this is helpful. The classic lawyer answer is "It depends" and that is true here.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
