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

"Morgan delivered far beyond the price point. He didn't just review our investor package — he caught gaps two other reviewers missed (including a top-tier venture firm we benchmarked him against), rebuilt the custom documents to professional standard, and added missing closing mechanics we didn't even know we needed: the 83(b) election, escrow instructions, stock assignment. He pushed back on his own client when the documents said otherwise — that's the lawyer you want. §144 analysis citing the 2025 Delaware reform, triple anti-broker-dealer protections, a related-party ARR cap he invented on his own — depth you'd expect at five times the fee, closed out with a proper written memo on firm letterhead. The timeline ran a bit longer than planned in places, but the result was more than worth it: every item closed, every question answered, the whole package consistent and ready to sign. Very happy overall — would hire again, and our next project is already queued."

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.

Asset Purchase Agreement

Texas

Asked on Jun 7, 2024

Can you explain the key provisions and potential risks involved in an Asset Purchase Agreement?

I am currently in the process of acquiring a business and have been presented with an Asset Purchase Agreement (APA) by the seller. While I have a general understanding of what an APA entails, I would like a lawyer's expertise to explain the key provisions of this agreement and any potential risks that I should be aware of before proceeding. Specifically, I am concerned about the transfer of liabilities, intellectual property rights, and any undisclosed liabilities that may arise after the acquisition. I want to ensure that I am fully informed and protected before finalizing the purchase.

Darryl S.

Answered Jul 16, 2024

An Asset Purchase Agreement (APA) is a legal contract used in business acquisitions where a buyer purchases specific assets of a company rather than acquiring the entire business entity. Here are some of the key provisions and potential risks involved: Key Provisions: 1. Identification of assets: Clearly defines which assets are being purchased and which are excluded. 2. Purchase price: Specifies the total amount and payment terms. 3. Liabilities: Outlines which liabilities, if any, the buyer will assume. 4. Representations and warranties: Statements made by the seller about the condition and status of the assets. 5. Conditions precedent: Events or actions that must occur before the deal closes. 6. Covenants: Agreements on how parties will behave before and after closing. 7. Indemnification: Protections for the buyer if the seller's representations prove false. 8. Closing mechanics: Details on how and when the transaction will be completed. 9. Transition services: Any support the seller will provide post-closing. 10. Non-compete clauses: Restrictions on the seller's future business activities. Potential Risks: 1. Incomplete due diligence: Buyer may miss critical issues with the assets. 2. Undisclosed liabilities: Buyer might inadvertently assume unexpected debts or obligations. 3. Environmental liabilities: Hidden contamination or compliance issues. 4. Contractual obligations: Existing contracts may not be transferable or may have unfavorable terms. There are many other risks - so this list is far from comprehensive.

LLC

Ohio

Asked on Jul 28, 2023

LLC and asset protection?

I have recently started a small business and am interested in forming a LLC for it. I am looking to protect my personal assets from any liabilities the LLC may incur, and I am seeking advice about how best to do this. I am looking for guidance on how to ensure the LLC will provide me with the asset protection I need.

Paul S.

Answered Aug 4, 2023

The LLC is a good starting point for asset protection. How you operate the LLC, and in particular the LLC's finances, is even more important. You should be careful to keep the business's finances separate from your personal finances - for example, don't pay the rent or mortgage on your home out of your LLC bank account. And of course, liability insurance is your first line of defense.

Building Lease

California

Asked on Nov 22, 2023

Can I transfer my building lease to another entity?

I am the owner of a small business that currently leases a building for our operations. Recently, our business has grown and we need to move to a larger space. We are interested in transferring our current lease to another entity so that we can move to a larger building without breaking the existing lease. We are looking for advice on the legalities and procedures involved in transferring our lease.

David B.

Answered Dec 6, 2023

I'd be happy to help with this. Normally, leases are freely transferable (by the landlord and the tenant) if the lease does not mention assignability and/or subleasing. However, the landlord and tenant are free to agree to limits to assignability/subleasing in the lease and such limits are enforceable against both parties. Landlords typically want to know a lot about any potential tenant, so the right to assign or sublease is substantially curtailed in most leases. Often, the landlord will reserve the absolute right to approve a new tenant (meaning such approval can be withheld for any or no reason). Tenants are often bargaining from a seriously disadvantaged position. Not only does the lease limit the ability to assign but the tenant is typically in tight economic circumstances. On the other hand, the landlord typically wants the premises filled with a rent-paying tenant. I've negotiated subleases from both perspectives and am confident I can guide you to a mutuallt beneficial resolution to this matter.

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.
