With 15 years of extensive transactional/contracts experience reviewing and negotiating commercial contracts including a wide variety of purchase orders and contracts and non-disclosure agreements (NDA), I believe I can immediately contribute to the continued success of your team. I have been commended for a range of valuable skills—excellent contract management and contract administration, legal research, risk analysis, drafting and negotiations, and strategic thinking. I have worked as a legal consultant for 10+ years and I have reviewed over 7,500 contracts through this position. Contracts I have reviewed include but not limited to purchase orders, commercial and construction contracts, equipment rental agreements, non-disclosure, confidentiality, vendor agreements, service agreements, site access agreements, international agreements, request for proposals (RFP), bids and government contracts. These experiences have enabled me to master the ability to work independently and expeditiously to identify and assess issues and provide legally sound recommendations, consistent with good business practices. I have led teams (sales, insurance and management) to successfully negotiate contract terms with customers. Effective Communicator and Negotiator. I am a people person, and for the past 13 years, I have acquired excellent oral and written communication skills that enable me to interact and negotiate effectively with stakeholders at all levels. I am a self-starter with a strong work ethic. I have a high degree of resourcefulness, diligence, and dependability. Most important, I adapt to changing priorities quickly, thriving in an environment with high volume and short turnaround deadlines. My experience over the years allows me to transfer my skills to all types of contracts to meet the client’s needs. I am hopeful to provide similar legal expertise, effective contract administration and leadership to your organization. It would be a pleasure to meet within the next few weeks and discuss how my qualifications, experience, and capabilities will best fit the needs of your outfit.

Intellectual Property

Trademark Assignment Agreement

Maryland

Asked on Dec 25, 2024

Can a trademark assignment agreement be used to transfer ownership of a trademark from one company to another?

I am part of a small startup company that has recently entered into a partnership with a larger corporation. As part of this partnership, we have agreed to transfer ownership of our trademark to the larger corporation. We have been advised to use a trademark assignment agreement for this purpose, but I want to ensure that this is the correct legal document to use and that it will effectively transfer ownership of the trademark to the new company.

Roman V.

Answered Jan 24, 2025

Hello, I'd be glad to review the details of the trademark assignment and confirm it properly transfers ownership of your trademark. As a trademark attorney, I have helped clients in similar situations both draft trademark assignments and record them with the USPTO to ensure that the trademark reflects the right ownership information. I would be happy to have a brief free 15 minute consult call to learn more details and see how I can help. Thanks for your consideration.

Trademark Transfer Agreement

Maryland

Asked on Feb 27, 2025

Need advice on Trademark Transfer Agreement.

I recently started a small business and have developed a unique brand name and logo. I have been approached by another company expressing interest in acquiring my trademark rights through a transfer agreement. I am unfamiliar with the legal aspects of trademark transfers and would like to understand the process, potential risks, and ensure that I am adequately protecting my brand before entering into any agreement.

Roman V.

Answered Mar 14, 2025

Hello, I wanted to express my interest in helping you understand your trademark rights and the trademark transfer proposal you received. As brief background, I am a US-licensed trademark attorney and have helped clients in similar situations buy, sell, and otherwise transfer trademark rights through transfer agreements. I can also help you prepare and file a federal trademark registration to protect your unique brand name and logo throughout the US. I'd be glad to set up a brief call to learn more about your business and see how I can help. Thanks for your consideration.

Video License Agreement

Maryland

Asked on Aug 16, 2024

Can I use a video licensed under a Creative Commons license for commercial purposes?

I am a small business owner planning to create an advertisement for my product, and I found a video on a platform that is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial license. While I understand that the license allows for non-commercial use, I am unsure if I can use this video in a commercial context without violating the terms of the license. I want to ensure that I am legally using the video and not infringing on any rights or facing potential legal consequences.

Haroldo M.

Answered Sep 18, 2024

Hi. If the Creative Commons License that you mentioned (CC BY-NC 4.0) does not allow for commercial usage, using that content commercially would violate the license. If you tranform the work sufficiently, you could potentially use it without violating the terms of the license.

Asset Purchase Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Oct 11, 2023

How are intellectual properties handled in an asset purchase agreement?

I am looking to purchase a business that includes intellectual property and I want to ensure that it is properly handled in the asset purchase agreement. I am concerned that the intellectual property may not be properly transferred to me in the agreement and I want to make sure that the agreement is legally binding and that I will be the rightful owner of the intellectual property after the purchase.

N'kia N.

Answered Oct 17, 2023

Although not necessarily required, the parties to an asset purchase agreement oftentimes find that it is in their best interests to work with a knowledgeable intellectual property attorney. The attorney can negotiate and draft the parts of the agreement that pertain specifically to intellectual property. The attorney can also assist with the parts of the agreement that do not appear to affect intellectual property but have the potential to. If you are considering an asset purchase agreement that involves intellectual property, you should also consider hiring an intellectual property attorney.

Intellectual Property

Work For Hire Agreement

Texas

Asked on May 20, 2025

Can an employer claim ownership of intellectual property created by an employee under a Work For Hire Agreement?

I recently started a new job where I am expected to create original content as part of my role. I was asked to sign a Work For Hire Agreement that states any intellectual property I create during my employment will be owned by the company. However, I have concerns about this arrangement as I have invested significant time and resources into developing my creative skills and worry that my work may be undervalued or exploited without proper compensation or recognition. I would like to understand if the employer can legitimately claim ownership of my intellectual property under the Work For Hire Agreement, and if there are any steps I can take to protect my rights while still meeting my employment obligations.

Sara S.

Answered Jun 24, 2025

Hi, Yes, intellectual property created by you as an employee, within the scope of your employment, under a work-for-hire agreement, probably belongs to your employer. To learn more about your rights under the agreement and any exceptions, you should consult with a qualified attorney.

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.
