Brianna N.
Brianna is a well-respected New York licensed attorney with a Juris Doctorate degree in law from Touro College Jacob D. Fuchsberg Law School and bachelor’s degree in Business Administration and Management from Dowling College. Since becoming an attorney, she has practiced in various areas including business law, corporate law, residential real estate, commercial real estate, criminal law, traffic law, employment law, landlord tenant law, estate planning, and has represented intermediaries in procurement and the personal protective equipment industry. Brianna has broad and extensive business experience; She is an entrepreneur and co-owner of a microtechnology manufacturing company that was built by her and her partner, where she also served as the Chief Legal Officer and Human Resource Manager for the company. While building the manufacturing business, she created a brokerage firm for business transactions and has managed several other businesses which she has ownership interest in. Brianna’s involvement in these various businesses over the past 15 years provides a unique skillset to her clients; Not only does she understand contractual principals and obligations from a legal perspective while drafting and negotiating agreements, but she also has the foresight, experience, and ability to ensure the agreement reflects the practical aspects of the business. Based on the client’s needs and desired outcome, she has the forethought to cover different angles that would be overlooked from a legal standpoint, and as a result she is able to help prevent unforeseen business ramifications. She conducts extensive risk assessments on behalf of her clients and minimizes exposure to potential liability without “over lawyering” agreements. One of Brianna’s main areas of focus is drafting and negotiating agreements. Negotiation is a passion of hers which was applied in law school while she was a member of the Alternative Dispute Resolution Society, notably winning Touro Law School’s intraschool negotiation competition. In her more recent years, Brianna has removed herself from her various business interests to focus on her law practice. Brianna has a strong moral compass and believes in quality over quantity. She treats every client as a top priority; thus, she will not take on many cases at a time because she wants to give each client the focus and attention they deserve. She has sharp attention to detail and is a forceful advocate for every client.

Corporate
C Corp
New York
C corp and board composition?
I am a small business owner that is in the process of setting up a C Corporation. I am currently in the process of forming the board of directors and I want to make sure that I am following all of the necessary legal regulations. I want to ensure that I am properly setting up the board of directors and that the board is comprised of the correct individuals.
Michael S.
The specific requirements for the composition of a board are a matter of State law, so the answer would depend on where your corporation is incorporated and, in some circumstances, where it is physically located. The number of directors and the specific choice of whom to add to the Board is generally best determined on a case by case basis.
Corporate
Operating Agreement
New York
What happens if I never created an Operating Agreement for my LLC?
I am being told I need an Operating Agreement for a new LLC I started in NY. I want to know what happens if I don't get one.
Jane C.
If you do not create an Operating Agreement, the default rules in your state will apply. Disclaimer - This information is provided for general informational purposes only.

Letter of Intent
Texas
Can a buyer back out of a purchase agreement?
I am trying to sell my company and the buyer has gone silent. We have top terms agreed to and a LOI signed, but we have not put a purchase agreement in place yet. Can they legally back out if we have a LOI signed?
Michael S.
With the caveat that I am a Pennsylvania and not Texas attorney, most LOI's are non-binding, unless the LOI itself provides otherwise. A lawyer would need to review the LOI to determine whether the deal can be enforced. Mostly likely, however, it cannot be enforced.
Corporate
Client Service Contract
Illinois
How does a contract protect your business?
I provide services to clients and I am considering getting a contract in place for my services. What are the benefits of having one? I haven't had any disputes with customers yet but I also want to make sure I am protected.
Michael S.
With the caveat that I'm a Pennsylvania and not Illinois attorney, a contract establishes the rights and responsibilities of the parties. Whether you realize it, when you enter into a deal with a customer, you establish and oral contract. A written contract is much easier to enforce, and to prove the terms, because they are in writing. You are much less likely to run into disputes down the line. And for the most part, customers appreciate the certainty as well.
Corporate
Cancellation Agreement
Alaska
is exit clause and termination clause same
nil
Jane C.
It truly depends on the context in which they are being used. Both clauses outline the terms under which you get out of the contract.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.

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.
View Trustpilot ReviewI 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.
View Trustpilot ReviewI got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
