Licensed in CA, NV, NY, TX
Western State University College of Law

I am a business attorney and former in-house corporate attorney with more than a decade of experience helping companies navigate contracts, commercial relationships, day-to-day operations, and disputes. My practice includes drafting, reviewing, and negotiating commercial agreements, licenses, leases, vendor and service agreements, and other business arrangements. Licensed in Nevada, California, New York, and Texas, I also hold an Executive MBA. My goal is to serve as practical, long-term outside counsel to small businesses and entrepreneurs that value responsiveness, sound judgment, and advice grounded in commercial realities - not merely technical legal answers. I handle disputes when necessary, but much of the value I bring lies in identifying issues early, preserving business relationships, and preventing avoidable conflicts. I do not bill separately for routine phone calls. I want clients to feel comfortable calling before a small concern becomes an expensive problem, and I am always happy to have an initial conversation to see if the fit is right for you. www.linkedin.com/in/maxkelner

Business Plan Legal Questions and Answers

Revenue Sharing Agreement

New York

Asked on Mar 7, 2025

Need advice on Revenue Sharing Agreement.

I am currently in negotiations with a potential business partner to enter into a revenue sharing agreement for a new venture we are planning to launch together, and I would like to seek legal advice to understand the potential risks, liabilities, and protections associated with such an agreement, as well as ensure that the terms and conditions are fair and reasonable for both parties involved.

Damien B.

Answered Mar 9, 2025

You can consult an attorney to review your terms, conditions, and goals. Generally, having a separate legal entity is best to help protect against liability. You would determine the business structure, such as a limited liability company or a subchapter S corporation. In those cases, you would have either an Operating Agreement or a Shareholders Agreement that outlines reasonable terms and conditions for both parties.

LLC

Texas

Asked on Oct 26, 2023

Can an LLC formation be expedited?

I am starting a small business, and I am in the process of forming a Limited Liability Company (LLC). I need to get the LLC established as soon as possible, and I am wondering if it is possible to expedite the process. I understand that the formation process typically takes some time, but I am hoping that there is a way to speed it up, as I need to get the LLC up and running as soon as possible.

yes - use one of services to move fast and pay a bit more for expedited registration.

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 Review

I 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 Review

I 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.
