www.parachinilaw.com I represent a diverse mix in a vast array of specialties, including litigation, contracts, compliance, business and financial strategies, and emerging industries. Credit for this foundation of strength goes to those who taught me. Skilled professors and professionals fostered my powerful educational and professional background. Prior to law school, I earned dual Bachelor’s degrees in Business Administration & Accounting from Peru State College. I received a Master of Business Administration degree from Chadron State College. My ambitions did not stop there. While working full time as a Senior Accountant for the University of Missouri, Columbia, I achieved the lifelong goal of becoming a licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Mizzo provided excellent opportunities and amazing experiences. Managing over $50M in government and private research funding was a gift. As a high ranking professional in the Department of Research, I was given priceless insight into the greatest scientific, journalistic, medical, and legal minds in the world. My passion for successful growth did not, and has not stopped. I graduated summa cum laude (top 3%) with a Doctorate in Law, emphasizing in urban, land use and environmental/toxic tort law from the University of Missouri, Kansas City. This success lead to invaluable experiences of serving as Hon. Brian C. Wimes' judicial clerk for the U.S. District Court for the W. D. of Missouri, as a staff editor/writer for UMKC Law Review, and as a litigation and transactional attorney with Lathrop GPM (fka Lathrop & Gage). My professional and personal network is expansive, with established relationships throughout the U.S. and overseas. Although I engage in legal practice all over the country, I maintain law licenses in Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Federally, I hold licenses in the W.D. and E.D. of Missouri and the District of Nebraska. To offer extra value, efficiency, and options, I maintain a CPA license and am obtaining a real-estate brokerage license.

Contracts Legal Questions and Answers

Business Contract

Washington

Asked on Sep 24, 2023

Business contract with non-disclosure?

I am a small business owner looking to enter into a contract with another party. I am concerned about protecting my intellectual property and proprietary information that I will be sharing with the other party. Therefore, I am looking for advice on how to draft a non-disclosure agreement that will adequately protect my interests.

Merry A.

Answered Sep 26, 2023

Creating a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) is a crucial step to protect your intellectual property and proprietary information when entering into a contract with another party. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to draft an NDA that will help safeguard your interests: Understand Your Needs: Clearly identify what specific information you want to protect. This could include trade secrets, business plans, customer lists, product designs, or any other sensitive information. Consult an Attorney: It's highly recommended to consult with an attorney who specializes in intellectual property or contract law. They can provide you with tailored advice and ensure your NDA complies with applicable laws in your jurisdiction. Basic NDA Structure: Title: Start with a clear title such as "Non-Disclosure Agreement" or "Confidentiality Agreement." Parties: Identify the parties involved, including your business and the other party. Recitals or Purpose: Include a brief statement explaining the purpose of the agreement, such as why the parties are entering into it. Definition of Confidential Information: Define what constitutes confidential information. Be as specific as possible to leave no room for ambiguity. Obligations of the Receiving Party: Clearly outline the receiving party's obligations, including: The duty to keep the information confidential. The prohibition on disclosing, sharing, or using the information for any purpose other than the specified one. The requirement to use reasonable care to protect the information. Duration of Confidentiality: Specify the duration for which the information must remain confidential. This could be for a set number of years or until a specific event occurs. Exclusions from Confidential Information: Clearly list any information that is not considered confidential. This could include information that was already public, independently developed by the receiving party, or disclosed with your written consent. Consequences of Breach: Describe the consequences of a breach of the NDA, such as injunctive relief, monetary damages, or both. Jurisdiction and Governing Law: Specify the jurisdiction where disputes will be resolved and the governing law that will apply. Miscellaneous Provisions: Include any other necessary clauses, such as dispute resolution methods, severability, and the entire agreement clause (which states that the NDA constitutes the entire agreement between the parties). Execution and Signatures: Provide spaces for the signatures of both parties, along with their printed names and dates. Review and Negotiation: Allow both parties to review and negotiate the terms. Be prepared for some back-and-forth discussions before reaching a final agreement. Legal Counsel Review: Before finalizing and signing the NDA, have your attorney review it to ensure it meets your specific needs and is legally enforceable. Remember that NDA templates are widely available, but they may not fully address your unique situation. It's essential to tailor the agreement to your specific needs and consult with legal professionals to ensure it adequately protects your intellectual property and proprietary information. Additionally, you should make sure that the other party understands the terms and willingly agrees to them before proceeding with any confidential discussions or transactions.

Contracts

Nondisclosure Agreement

New York

Asked on Mar 30, 2021

Is pricing protected under an NDA?

I am in a negotiation with a vendor and they are trying to get us to sign a mutual NDA because they want to protect their pricing.

Ramsey T.

Answered Mar 30, 2021

The answer depends upon how you define protected or confidential information under your NDA. Even if pricing is included as protected information, often pricing becomes "excluded" from the NDA protection because the "pricing" has been made public to other third parties. You are often better protected by having a pricing methodology and ensuring that such is protected under the NDA.

Independent Contractor Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Nov 10, 2023

What fees are usual in an independent contractor agreement?

I am an independent contractor who is in the process of signing an agreement with a client. I am looking for more information about the fees that are usually associated with such an agreement. I want to make sure that I am aware of all the fees associated with the contract so that I do not encounter any surprises down the line.

Steven W.

Answered Dec 4, 2023

There are no set fees that are in an independent contractor agreement. Generally, what is covered are the fees or costs associated with the work or project and they may also include expenses incurred related to the work or project, such as travel and/or accommodations.

SaaS Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jul 22, 2023

SaaS agreement and data ownership?

I am the founder of a small startup that is developing a software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution. We are in the process of negotiating a SaaS agreement with a potential customer and I am looking to understand what rights the customer will have to the data that they provide to us. We want to make sure that we are adequately protecting our intellectual property while also providing the customer with the ability to use the data they provide.

Diane D.

Answered Sep 1, 2023

To be able to answer your question, I would need to see the SaaS agreement you have with your potential customer. I could then let you know your rights, and what you need to say in the Agreement to be fully protected and retain your data.

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.
