Stacey D.
I enjoy helping businesses of all sizes succeed, from start-ups to existing small and medium sized businesses. I regularly advise corporate clients on a variety of legal issues including formation, day to day governance, reviewing and drafting business contracts and other agreements, business acquisitions and sales, as well as commercial and residential real estate issues, including sales, purchases and leases. As an attorney licensed in both Michigan and Florida, I also advise clients on real estate issues affecting businesses and individuals owning real property in either state, whether commercial, residential or vacation/investment property. I also regularly assist nonprofit organizations in obtaining and maintaining tax exempt status, and provide general legal counsel on all matters affecting public charities, private foundations and other nonprofit organizations.
Melissa G.
My name is Melissa “Mel” Green and I provide legal counsel to entrepreneurs, start-ups, and small businesses that is clear, concise, and focused on the practical impact of decisions. As trusted legal counsel, I proactively identify risks, and develop effective, practical solutions that protect my clients businesses, create positive outcomes, and help mitigate legal exposure. My areas of expertise include business formation, contract law/commercial transactions, healthcare law, and intellectual property. I also provide services as an outside general counsel or “fractional general counsel”. Prior to starting my own law firm, I spent the majority of my career in-house at large and small corporations, both for profit and not-for-profit, working with senior and executive management, in addition to other stakeholders at a variety of management levels. to proactively identify and address risks, mitigate legal exposure, streamline processes, lead persuasive negotiations that are integral to ensuring positive outcomes for the organization, and deliver hands-on, spectacular client service. There came a time when I realized that individuals and smaller entities were not receiving the same level of legal support and guidance as mid-size to large companies and as a result, individuals and small businesses were not growing and sustaining on the same level. I wanted to use my expertise to provide those that were underserved by the legal market with competent counsel at an affordable price. With the increasing number of new businesses, I knew that I could make a difference to those that needed legal guidance but were putting it off in fear of “Big Law” prices. I love to “partner” with my clients, get a deep understanding of their business, develop lasting professional relationships and watch them prosper. I want to find a way to help my clients maximize the reach, value and impact of their business. Services that I have provided over the course of my career: (i) reviewing, drafting and negotiating commercial agreements (leases, MSAs and SOWs, consulting services agreements, confidentiality agreements, SaaS agreements, coaching agreements, independent contractor agreements, coaching agreements, photographer agreements, waivers and releases, licensing agreements, etc.), (ii) business formation (operating agreements, written consents, bylaws, etc.), (iii) preparing policies and procedures for businesses in highly regulated industries, (iv) conducting federal trademark searches and filing trademark applications/preparing trademark opinion letters after conducting appropriate legal research, and (v) general business counsel.

How should i set up my llc in Michigan for real estate development company
Im starting a Michigan llc will be a real estate development company will employ 100s eventually
David H.
Hello, I am a Michigan licensed attorney. The business formation structure you choose will impact your taxes and also protect you from liability depending on the structure. A limited liability company can be set up in multiple ways from a sole proprietor to a multi-member company. And it can be taxed in one of three ways as a pass-through tax, as an S corp, and as a regular Corporation. This all depends on how you choose to set it up. Please let me know if you would like assistance in setting up your LLC that is a service I can help with. There are State filing documents, setting up a tax ID number with the IRS, then setting up an operating agreements. Those are some of the basics. I can walk you through those or I can do the work for you to set up the agreements and file the paperwork. Please let me know if you're interested in utilizing my legal services. Thank you for the opportunity answer your question. Attorney Dave.

Is it wise to start a single-member LLC to invest in Cryptocurrency and the Pot Stock market
I have/had an LLC that is a marketing company for D2D sales. Obviously, since COVID we are all out of business. I have been investing in crypto since 2016. I lost almost all of my money in the "ONECOIN" cryptocurrency SCAM. Now I am well educated in the market and believe I will make millions in the Crypto and Metaverse market. I am interested in the tax benefits and protection of the money in my family accounts from retirement and IRAs.
David H.
Hello, I'm a Michigan licensed attorney. I also research and invest in Bitcoin another cryptocurrency. It looks like your question has a couple of facets to it. One being protecting your personal finances from cryptocurrency losses, but also including them in a future investment tool such as an IRA. There are different tax consequences depending on how you you move forward and what structure you choose. I can help you with this. Depending on how you choose to move forward emails from you an accountant / tax attorney.

Partnership Agreement
Texas
What about confidentiality in a partnership agreement?
I am starting a business with a partner and we are in the process of creating a Partnership Agreement. We both want to ensure that anything discussed or shared between us as part of the business is kept confidential. We are looking for advice on how to ensure that this is upheld in the Partnership Agreement.
Darryl S.
You can sign a Non-Disclosure provision within the Partnership Agreement or as a separate document. These are fairly standard and can be drafted quickly and easily.

Joint Venture Agreement
Florida
How to split debt in a joint venture?
I am currently in a joint venture with another company to pursue a business opportunity. As part of our venture, we have incurred debt that we need to repay. However, I am unsure of how to fairly split the debt between the two companies, especially if one company has contributed more resources or expertise to the venture than the other. Therefore, I would like to seek the advice of a lawyer to better understand the legal and financial considerations involved in splitting debt in a joint venture.
Donya G.
This can be done by agreement of the parties. Typically it can be done in the same way profits are split or depending on how much the parties are contributing to the JV. If you need assistance with the JV agreement, I can help. You can find me on the contracts counsel website to engage my services. All the best Donya Gordon

Asset Purchase Contract
Texas
Business has been sold
I sold my business in 9-2016 for $300,000 at 6% interest and received $4500 a month for payments then in January 2020 lowered the payments to $3000. How long until the note is paid off? Also the buyers now think they paid too much and want to change the amount, can they so that?
Donya G.
Hello, Everything will depend on what your contract states. If the agreement said they paid the amount they did, it would not matter if they now think otherwise but it depends on your agreement. Generally, any modifications and revisions to an agreement must be in writing and signed by the parties. This would also need to be in your agreement. How I can help - I can review your agreement and advise you on how to take next steps with the buyers. You can connect with me through the website or directly to my profile page at Donya Gordon Esq. Regards, Donya

Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
View Trustpilot ReviewContracts 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.
