Samuel R.
My career interests are to practice Transactional Corporate Law, including Business Start Up, as well as Real Estate Law, Estate Planning Law, and Intellectual Property Law. I am currently licensed in Arizona, Pennsylvania and Utah, after having moved to Phoenix from Philadelphia in September 2019. I currently serve as General Counsel for a bioengineering company. I handle everything from their Business Transactional Agreements, Private Placement Memorandums, and Corporate Structures to Intellectual Property Assignments, to Employment Law and Beach of Contract settlements. Responsibilities include writing and executing agreements, drafting court pleadings, court appearances, mergers and acquisitions, transactional documents, managing expert specialized legal counsel, legal research and anticipating unique legal issues that could impact the Company. Conducted an acquisition of an entire line of intellectual property from a competitor. In regards to other clients, I am primarily focused on transactional law for clients in a variety of industries including, but not limited to, real estate investment, property management, and e-commerce. Work is primarily centered around entity formation and corporate structure, corporate governance agreements, PPMs, opportunity zone tax incentives, and all kinds of business to business agreements. I have also recently gained experience with Estate Planning law, drafting numerous Estate Planning documents for people such as Wills, Powers of Attorney, Healthcare Directives, and Trusts. I was selected to the Super Lawyers Southwest Rising Stars list for 2024 - 2026. Each year no more than 2.5% of the attorneys in Arizona and New Mexico are selected to the Rising Stars. I am looking to further gain legal experience in these fields of law as well as expand my legal experience assisting business start ups, and also trademark registration and licensing.

I review, negotiation, draft and analyze contracts including: business asset purchase agreements, non-disclosure/confidentiality agreements, commercial leases, cease-desist letters, payment demand letters, construction contracts, consulting agreements and many more.

Richard "Rick" Mortensen has practiced law continuously in Utah since 2006. For most of that time, he worked in-house, including stints at two international mining companies, two direct selling/MLM companies, a large ecommerce retailer, and an accounting/fintech firm. He also has extensive litigation experience, having represented plaintiffs and defendants in every stage of litigation, including jury trials and appeals. His current role is as a fractional general counsel for businesses of all sizes.
"This was my first commercial lease, and the contract was lengthy and complicated, so I’m very glad I had Rich to help me through it. He was professional, patient, and took the time to explain everything clearly. Since English is my second language, that meant a lot to me. Rich was very thorough in reviewing the contract and took the time to have regular calls with me to walk through questions and details. He also communicated directly with my leasing agent when needed, which helped keep things moving and get some of the issues sorted out. I really appreciated the time and attention he gave throughout the process. His guidance made me feel much more comfortable with my first commercial lease, and I would definitely recommend him to others."

My main focus is estate planning and business transactions, but I have had many practice areas throughout my career, including criminal defense and prosecution, civil litigation from neighborhood squabbles to corporate contentions. I have also worked in bankruptcy, family law, collections, employment law, and personal injury. I stand ready to assist in any area to which I feel I can be of service, but will not try to fake it if I do not know the area of law I am being asked to serve in.

Contracts Legal Questions and Answers
Business Contracts
Independent Contractor Agreement
North Carolina
What are common pitfalls in contractor agreements?
I am a small business owner looking to hire an independent contractor to help with some of my workload. I am concerned about entering into an agreement with the contractor and would like to know more about common pitfalls in contractor agreements so that I can ensure I am entering into a fair and equitable arrangement.
N'kia N.
In North Carolina, there are numerous potential pitfalls for independent contractor agreements. A few general pitfalls include: 1. Classification: An independent contractor agreement should properly establish that the relationship is intended to be an independent contractor relationship (not an employment relationship). The agreement should include terms and conditions that make the intended nature of the relationship absolutely clear. 2. Compensation: An independent contractor agreement should properly address the contractor's compensation. The agreement should not include references to terms typically reserved for employment relationships (like "salary" or "exempt/non-exempt"). 3. Control: An independent contractor agreement should demonstrate that the hiring party will not control the contractor like it would an employee. The agreement should not include terms and conditions that unlawfully or unnecessarily limit the contractor's rights (like the right to provides services to other clients to generate independent income). 4. Criteria/Qualifications: An independent contractor agreement should establish that the contractor is qualified to provide the services "independently" i.e. without the hiring party providing training or supervision. The agreement should not include terms and conditions that demonstrate an improper degree of control (like probation, performance reviews, or discipline). There are also pitfalls that are based on such factors as the industry or nature of the hiring party's business, the nature of the services the contractor will be performing, or the nature of the relationship between the parties. To be fair and equitable, an independent contractor agreement must respect the various laws governing independent contractor relationships. For example, a worker should not be required to accept a role as an "independent contractor" if the hiring party intends to control the worker like an employee. A North Carolina attorney who is knowledgeable of independent contractor relationships can assist with an independent contractor agreement. Consult with a knowledgeable attorney to help ensure you avoid some common pitfalls in independent contractor agreements.
Contracts
Commercial Lease
New York
What's the entire agreement clause in a commercial lease?
I am a small business owner who recently signed a commercial lease for my business premises. I am concerned about the “entire agreement” clause in the lease, as I am not sure what it covers and what the implications are for me and my business. I am looking for clarification on the clause and any potential risks associated with it.
Matthew S.
This is a contractual provision which aims to prevent the party relying on it from being liable for any statements or representations (including pre-contractual representations) except as expressly set out in the agreement. It generally precludes the introduction of parol evidence or evidences of other agreements that are not in writing.

Content Creator Agreement
Ohio
Is it necessary for me to have a Content Creator Agreement with the company I am creating content for?
I am a content creator who has recently entered into a collaboration with a company to produce content for their platform. I want to ensure that my rights and responsibilities are clearly defined, and that the company cannot misuse or exploit my work without my consent. Therefore, I am wondering if it is necessary for me to have a Content Creator Agreement in place with the company, which would outline the terms and conditions of our collaboration, including copyright ownership, payment terms, and any limitations on the use of my content.
Gary S.
Yes, in short, a content creator should definitely have a written content creator agreement with the company they're creating content for. Among other things, the agreement will: clarify ownership of the content, define payment terms, set deadlines and expectations, protect against "scope creep" (prevent you from doing extra work at no charge), address various legal risks, including warranties, indemnifications, and compliance requirements, cover non-compete or exclusivity terms, and specify termination rights. This response is for general informational purposes only and does not create an attorney-client relationship. For advice related to your specific matter, consult a qualified attorney licensed in your area.

Business Contract
New York
Should I sign a contract if the terms and conditions don't apply to what I am buying?
I am about to sign a contract to rent a venue for my wedding ceremony (not reception). In the terms and conditions they state that I am responsible for paying $10,000 overtime per hour over the contract (which includes venue, staffing ,bar package). However I am having a ceremony only, there is no food or beverage being provided. And the only staff are 2 people to set up the room. Overall it seems the terms and conditions are more for a reception, not just a ceremony. Bottom line, should certain terms and conditions be removed from my contract if they do not apply to my ceremony?
Donya G.
Absolutely. Please do not sign a contract with terms that do not apply to you. Once signed, you would then be bound by those terms and conditions. Go back and ask them to remove the sections that do not apply to you before you sign. If you need additional assistance and wish to hire me to assist you in the review of your agreement or discuss the revisions with the venue, you can contact via Contracts Counsel. All the best.
