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.

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.

Securities Law Compliance Legal Questions and Answers
Securities Law Compliance
Fundraising Contract
New York
What legal considerations should I be aware of when raising funds for a private equity fund?
I am in the process of launching a private equity fund and am seeking legal advice on the various considerations and regulations that I need to be aware of when it comes to fundraising. I want to ensure that I am fully compliant with securities laws, have a thorough understanding of the documentation required, and am aware of any potential pitfalls or risks associated with the fundraising process.
Christopher N.
You have two major considerations: what are your investors looking for in return and protections against failure (is this a good idea and will I get my money back); and, complying with state and federal securities law as it relates the sales of securities (which you will do because you are selling an interest, shares, etc. in your fund). There are some very significant issues you have prepare for both from the SEC and your investor point of view with whihc you have to deal. My thoughts on the work you have ahead of you (which I basic and not reflective of the many other options available): (1) draft the power point to describe the fund, target industries, etc.; (2) draft the offering memeorandum describing the fund, the risks, the investment strategy, risks, etc.; (3) the subscription agreement; and (4) filing the necessary forms and disclosures with New York and the SEC. GIven the complexity of drafting these documents and complying with the securities laws, you can expect to spend AT LEAST $25,000 for the attorneys to do the work -- but likely much more depending on the law firm. I recommend looking at a smaller form with the necessary experience as they can do the work just as well if not better and at a better price point. Good luck, and we are happy to answer more specific questions if you reach out to us.
Securities Law Compliance
Offering Memorandum
California
Can an Offering Memorandum be used for fundraising in a startup?
I am a co-founder of a startup and we are planning to raise funds from accredited investors. We have heard about Offering Memorandums being used for fundraising, but we are unsure if this is applicable to our situation. We want to know if it is legally permissible to use an Offering Memorandum for fundraising in a startup, and if so, what are the key requirements and considerations we should be aware of.
Christopher N.
Your question does not have a quick or answer, and is highly dependent the very specific facts of your company, your industry, and potential investors, but, the short answer is: yes. The offering memorandum is just that: a (non-binding) offer to sell securities in your company. There are other documents that will have to be prepared if an investor agrees to fund you. Those documents and the underlying "advertising" for the sale of those securities are, as you likely know, very strictly regulated by the SEC and California (under the Blue Sky rules). Run afoul of them to your detriment and you may need very expensive attorneys. We highly recommend you consult with experienced securities attorneys who can help you craft the offering memo, subscription agreements, etc. to address the issues specific to your company and potential investors. Perhaps not the full answer you are looking for, but hopefully a wise note of caution.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
