I graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 2006 with a degree in Political Science, Finance, and Economics. I stayed around Champaign for law school and graduated in 2009. I then worked at a big law firm in downtown Chicago. It was boring, so I quit in early 2011. I thought that I could not be happy practicing law - I was wrong. After I quit the traditional law firm life, I began representing my own clients. I realize now that I love helping normal people, small business owners, and non-profits address a variety of legal issues. I hope to hear from you.

My name is Ryenne Shaw and I help business owners build businesses that operate as assets instead of liabilities, increase in value over time and build wealth. My areas of expertise include corporate formation and business structure, contract law, employment/labor law, business risk and compliance and intellectual property. I also serve as outside general counsel to several businesses across various industries nationally. I spent most of my early legal career assisting C.E.O.s, General Counsel, and in-house legal counsel of both large and smaller corporations in minimizing liability, protecting business assets and maximizing profits. While working with many of these entities, I realized that smaller entities are often underserved. I saw that smaller business owners weren’t receiving the same level of legal support larger corporations relied upon to grow and sustain. I knew this was a major contributor to the ceiling that most small businesses hit before they’ve even scratched the surface of their potential. And I knew at that moment that all of this lack of knowledge and support was creating a huge wealth gap. After over ten years of legal experience, I started my law firm to provide the legal support small to mid-sized business owners and entrepreneurs need to grow and protect their brands, businesses, and assets. I have a passion for helping small to mid-sized businesses and startups grow into wealth-building assets by leveraging the same legal strategies large corporations have used for years to create real wealth. I enjoy connecting with my clients, learning about their visions and identifying ways to protect and maximize the reach, value and impact of their businesses. I am a strong legal writer with extensive litigation experience, including both federal and state (and administratively), which brings another element to every contract I prepare and the overall counsel and value I provide. Some of my recent projects include: - Negotiating & Drafting Commercial Lease Agreements - Drafting Trademark Licensing Agreements - Drafting Ambassador and Influencer Agreements - Drafting Collaboration Agreements - Drafting Service Agreements for service-providers, coaches and consultants - Drafting Master Service Agreements and SOWs - Drafting Terms of Service and Privacy Policies - Preparing policies and procedures for businesses in highly regulated industries - Drafting Employee Handbooks, Standard Operations and Procedures (SOPs) manuals, employment agreements - Creating Employer-employee infrastructure to ensure business compliance with employment and labor laws - Drafting Independent Contractor Agreements and Non-Disclosure/Non-Competition/Non-Solicitation Agreements - Conducting Federal Trademark Searches and filing trademark applications - Preparing Trademark Opinion Letters after conducting appropriate legal research - Drafting Letters of Opinion for Small Business Loans - Drafting and Responding to Cease and Desist Letters I service clients throughout the United States across a broad range of industries.

Litigation

Settlement Agreement

Texas

Asked on Dec 16, 2023

Can settlement agreement details be public?

I recently entered into a settlement agreement with another party and am concerned about the details of the agreement being made public. I am worried that the agreement may contain sensitive information that could be detrimental to my reputation or interests if it were to be shared publicly. I am looking for guidance on the legal implications of the settlement agreement being made public and what, if anything, I can do to protect myself in this situation.

J.R. S.

Answered Jan 5, 2024

Yes, details of a settlement agreement can be made public, especially when a governmental body is involved due to the Public Information or Open Records Act. This act states that the public has a right to access information on government affairs and official acts of public officials and employees unless expressly excepted. However, there are exceptions to this general rule. For instance, disclosure of personnel information that would "constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy" is excepted. This is not to say that all settlement agreements are public. In some cases, parties to a settlement agreement may choose to include confidentiality clauses, which prevent the details of the settlement from being disclosed to the public or any third party. The legal rule for agreements between attorneys or parties touching any suit pending is that they will not be enforced unless they are in writing, signed and filed with the papers as part of the record, or unless they are made in open court and entered of record.

Litigation

Demand Letter

Florida

Asked on Sep 17, 2023

Costs threatened in a demand letter?

I recently received a demand letter from a person that I had a disagreement with. The letter stated that if I did not take certain actions, they would take legal action against me. The letter also mentioned potential costs associated with this legal action. I am wondering what the potential costs could be and what I can do to protect myself from incurring them.

Linda W.

Answered Sep 27, 2023

The first question I would ask, is the nature of the dispute. Is it actionable? Does the person who sent the demand letter have any legal right to bring a lawsuit against you? Typically costs associated with a lawsuit are the filing fee and service of process/summons and possibly free judgment interest, depending on the alleged violation, if it is monetary.

Settlement Agreement

Kansas

Asked on Dec 15, 2023

How does a settlement agreement affect future claims?

I recently entered into a settlement agreement with my former employer. The agreement requires me to release any and all claims I may have against them. I am concerned about how this agreement might affect my right to pursue any future claims I might have against them. I am seeking advice to understand how this agreement impacts my ability to pursue future claims.

Alan B.

Answered Dec 26, 2023

Your settlement could be limited to claims in the past. It’s effect on future claims will depend on: 1) the limiting language in the settlement agreement, and 2) the nature of the future claim (i.e., whether any part of the claim covered by settlement agreement language).

Franchise Agreement

California

Asked on Sep 25, 2024

Can a franchisor make changes to the Franchise Disclosure Document after it has been provided to the potential franchisee?

I am considering purchasing a franchise and have received the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) from the franchisor. However, I recently learned that the franchisor has made some changes to the FDD and I am concerned about the implications of these changes. I would like to know if it is legally permissible for a franchisor to make changes to the FDD after it has been provided to a potential franchisee, and if so, what rights and protections do franchisees have in such situations?

Dolan W.

Answered Sep 27, 2024

Hello! I'm sorry about this situation. The short answer? No. That's the short answer. Here is the long answer: To modify a contract legally, the following requirements must be met: All parties to the contract must agree to the modification. This means that both parties must sign and date the amendment to the contract. The parties to the contract need new consideration -- something of legal value -- to modify a contract. For example, if a party wants more money for something they would need to provide additional performance in exchange. A writing is not required for a modification, but recommended. You're saying that the FDD has terms that you did not agree to. Without proof that they offered additional consideration (something of value) to you in exchange and without proof of your agreement, the term would be unenforceable. \ Good luck!

Case

Do advise if your firm handles breach of contract / business litigation cases.

Donya G.

Answered Sep 18, 2021

Yes, the website has attorneys who handle breach of contract/litigation issues. Simply post your job to the site. Once posted, attorneys with the interest and expertise will apply to the post. You will receive an email from the site advising you that you have applications to review. You can then have discussions with those attorneys to decide on an attorney you prefer, A deposit of the charges would be required at the time of hire and the balance would become new when the attorney delivers the product to you.
