Alton H.
I am a U.S.-licensed attorney with more than a decade of experience in complex litigation and intellectual property matters. I have practiced at leading Am Law firms including Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman, Arent Fox, and Sughrue Mion, and I currently operate my own law practice. I have extensive experience handling high-stakes patent litigation, drafting pleadings and briefs, managing large-scale discovery, preparing and defending depositions, and appearing before federal courts and administrative bodies such as the PTAB and ITC. I hold a J.D., cum laude, from The George Washington University Law School and advanced technical degrees in chemistry and chemical engineering, which allow me to efficiently handle technically complex matters. I am admitted in multiple jurisdictions, including New York, Virginia, New Jersey, and the District of Columbia, and I regularly provide high-quality remote legal support to clients nationwide.
"Alton worked with me to create several documents for my independent (indie) video game studio. This included clauses about IP assignment, waiving rights, compensation, warranties, and so on. He worked diligently to turn 12 pages of my informal notes and intentions into a comprehensive package that diligently and accurately covers all the bases. It was a great experience overall, taking about two weeks of on-and-off discussion and revisions to understand the requirements of the documents; had I been quicker to respond, it likely would have been closer to a week. If you're working on a creative project where IP assignment and compensation need to be worked out, I recommend Alton for the job!"

Legal Due Diligence Checklist
California
What is the importance of legal due diligence in a business transaction?
I am currently in the process of acquiring a small business and have been advised to conduct legal due diligence. I understand the basic concept, but I would like to know more about its importance and how it can help me identify any potential legal risks or liabilities associated with the business I am acquiring. I want to ensure that I am fully informed about any legal issues before proceeding with the transaction, and I would appreciate your guidance on the specific aspects that should be covered during the due diligence process.
Tabetha H.
Legal due diligence is critical in business acquisitions as it uncovers hidden liabilities that could become your responsibility post-closing. This process examines contracts for unfavorable terms, pending litigation, compliance issues, intellectual property ownership, employment matters, and regulatory violations. Beyond risk identification, due diligence provides negotiation leverage (potentially reducing purchase price or requiring escrows for identified issues), ensures accurate business valuation, and forms the foundation for representations and warranties in your purchase agreement. Without thorough due diligence, you risk inheriting undisclosed lawsuits, contract breaches, employee claims, or regulatory penalties that could significantly diminish the business's value or create unexpected costs after acquisition.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
