I am very comfortable negotiating Commercial Contracts, Vendor Agreements, and Procurement Contracts for goods, services, and licensing, as well as addressing Employment & Labor, Intellectual Property, and Data Privacy issues and compliance.

John B.
I am an attorney with over 13 years experience licensed in both Illinois and Indiana. I spent the early part of my career as a civil litigation attorney. Eventually, I moved into an in-house role, specifically as general counsel, to help companies avoid the pains of litigation. In doing so, I gained significant experience in executive leadership, corporate governance, risk management and cybersecurity/privacy. I bring this wealth of experience to my client engagements to not only resolve the immediate issue, but help implement lasting improvements in practices to avoid similar problems going forward.

Consulting Agreement
North Carolina
Can I draft my own consulting agreement?
I am a small business owner who is looking to hire a consultant to help with my business strategy. I am interested in drafting my own consulting agreement, but am unsure of the legal requirements and implications of doing so. I want to make sure I am following all of the necessary legal guidelines to protect both myself and the consultant.
N'kia N.
A small business that wishes to draft an agreement for hiring a consultant should consider various legal requirements and implications. For just a few examples: 1. An agreement is not a valid and enforceable "contract" unless it contains certain essential elements. 2. Issues like ambiguity, contradiction, and vagueness in an agreement can be (and sometimes must be) interpreted against the drafting party. 3. Drafting an agreement for a person who will be providing individual services is a factor that could be used to interpret the relationship as "employment" when it was not intended to be. Since consultants are usually experts of some sort, they often make their living by providing their consulting services to numerous clients. Therefore, most consultants have their own consulting agreements to present to their prospective clients. A knowledgeable North Carolina attorney can assist with drafting, reviewing, or negotiating a consulting agreement. Even if you decide to handle a consulting agreement on your own, a legal consultation can provide guidance to help you get things started on the right foot. Good luck!

Asset Purchase Agreement
Arizona
Can I update an asset purchase agreement post-signing?
I am in the process of purchasing a business, and the asset purchase agreement has already been signed. I recently became aware of some additional assets that I'd like to include in the agreement, and I'm wondering if it's possible to update the agreement post-signing to include these new assets. This purchase is critical to the success of my business, so I'm hoping to get a clear understanding of the legal implications of making changes to the agreement.
Christopher I.
I am not licensed in Arizona, but feel comfortable providing a general answer about contract amendments, because the subject matter doesn’t require any specialized knowledge. Yes, you can amend nearly any agreement—including an asset purchase agreement (“APA”)—after it has been signed; provided, however, you must follow the requirements for a valid contract amendment. At minimum, you’ll need to obtain the other party’s written authorization for the amendment. Be sure to check for an “Amendments” clause in the APA (look for it under the heading “General Provisions” or “Miscellaneous Provisions”) which may introduce additional requirements, e.g., requiring that an amendment must be labeled and signed by the parties in order to be valid. Further, depending on whether you are seeking to materially alter the terms of the APA, your prospective amendment may require new “consideration”. In contract law, “consideration” generally means any type of bargained-for value that the parties exchange. Thus, if your prospective amendment would make the APA’s terms significantly more favorable to you relative to its terms pre-amendment, then such amendment might require that you give additional bargained-for value to the other party for the amendment to be legally effective. In conclusion, if you follow the requirements for a valid contract amendment, then yes, you can modify the APA and those modifications will be legally enforceable. I hope this has been helpful. If you have any specific followup questions or need a Contract Amendment drafted, I would encourage you to speak with a qualified attorney licensed in your state.

Operating Agreement
Texas
Do I need to file my Operating Agreement in Texas?
I know I need one but does it go with State filing?
George O.
No, but you definitely need to have one, preferably reviewed and prepared by a lawyer; there are a lot of businesses that will give you templates, etc., but do not have the experience and knowledge that a lawyer brings to the table.

Independent Contractor Agreement
North Carolina
Are templates for independent contractor agreements okay?
I am an independent contractor and am currently in the process of negotiating a new agreement with a client. I am trying to understand the implications of using a template agreement, as opposed to having an agreement written specifically for our situation. I want to ensure that I am protecting my interests and that the agreement is legally binding.
Shelia H.
If you are considering using a template for your independent contractor agreement, you should view it as a starting point. It can be a good way of finding boilerplate provisions that are going to be in just about every agreement. Unfortunately, because they are templates, you run the risk of leaving out important details that may apply to your situation. Additionally, the template might not go far enough in protecting interests that you specifically need to have protected. Think of it this way. Template agreements are usually so general, they will probably be valid in almost every state. Consequently, by being general, they usually leave out key details that would apply in your situation but not in other contractors' situations. You should always consider having an attorney review your agreement to make sure that the agreement meets your legal needs and that it is legally binding in your state.
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.
