Rocco D.
I'm in general practice with an emphasis on real estate, litigation, and contracts
Michelle T.
I am an experienced, well-rounded attorney with a background specializing in trusts and estates, contracts and business law. I have extensive experience working with simple contracts all the way up to multi-million dollar deals.
"Michelle drafted an excellent and unique Post Nuptial agreement which outlines a very specific "process" that will be used to divide assets in the event of divorce. Since assets can change value daily, traditional "splitting an asset list" methods are often outdated within a week of signing. Michelle rose to the challenge at a very reasonable price. Other, "meter man" attorneys would have charged at least 5x more. I highly recommend Michelle!"
Cherie M.

Randy M.
Hi, I'm Randy, and I've been practicing law for over 30 years with a genuine passion for contracts and legal drafting. I spent nearly 15 years running my own solo practice in Richmond, Virginia, where I built a thriving firm helping everyone from small business owners to entertainment professionals navigate their legal needs. Those years taught me that great contracts aren't just about covering all the bases legally - they're about understanding what my clients actually need and translating that into clear, enforceable agreements. My sweet spot is contract drafting across a wide range of areas. I've written hundreds of LLC operating agreements (both single and multi-member), prenuptial and postnuptial agreements, residential and commercial leases, independent contractor agreements, service contracts, NDAs, consulting agreements, and corporate formation documents. I also have extensive experience in estate planning documents - wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and living wills - plus employment agreements and entertainment law contracts. These days I'm based in New York City, but I work with clients nationwide on contract matters. What I love most about this work is taking complex business relationships and turning them into documents that actually make sense and protect everyone involved. Whether you're a startup founder needing your first operating agreement or an established business updating your contractor templates, I focus on creating contracts that work in the real world, not just on paper. After three decades of practice, I still get excited about a well-crafted contract. Let's talk about how I can help with yours.
"Randy did an excellent job reviewing our Nanny Agreement. He brought up issues we wouldn't have thought of otherwise. Highly recommend for his thoroughness and responsiveness!"

I hold a J.D., cum laude, from The George Washington University Law School and advanced technical degrees in chemistry and chemical engineering, which allow me to efficiently handle technically complex matters. I am admitted in multiple jurisdictions, including New York, Virginia, New Jersey, and the District of Columbia, and I regularly provide high-quality remote legal support to clients nationwide.
"Did a very thorough job, asked great questions and made adjustments as necessary. Would definitely work with again."

Employment
Noncompete Agreement
Washington
Noncompete agreement and public policy?
I recently accepted a job offer with a new employer who asked me to sign a noncompete agreement. I am concerned that the agreement may not be in line with public policy and wanted to get a professional opinion from a lawyer to make sure I am not putting myself in a difficult situation.
Merry K.
If you are in Washington State, where I'm licensed, as opposed to D.C., please let me know what kind of help you are looking for - have you already signed the agreement? I've been a WA State attorney for nearly 38 years, and specialize in employment law.
Employment
Employment Offer
Florida
Does the employment offer mention promotions?
I was recently offered a job and I am interested in understanding what the terms of the agreement are regarding promotions. I have been in the same job for several years and I am looking for something with more potential for advancement. Although the job offer does not explicitly mention promotions, I am hoping to get more information about the company's policy regarding career growth.
Gill D.
Employment offers can contain information about promotions, but they typically do not. Jobs and employers and situations change over time and employers don't want to get stuck agreeing to a promotion before working with you.
Employment
Employment Agreement
California
In California, Is a Non-Circumvention agreement signed as an employee be enforceable if the employer lays off said employee?
As an employee I was presented and signed a Non-Disclosure & Non-Circumvention agreement. I was recently told that Friday July 29, 2022 is my last day solely because the employer can no longer afford my position. They have also presented the idea of hiring me as an independent contractor. In the proposal, my current employer reminded me of the signed agreement. I would like to know if I sign the agreement for contracted work, is the Non-Circumvention agreement still valid since the Employer Employee relationship has ceased at no fault of the employee?
Howard B.
You will need to talk to someone in California, specifically. I am not licensed in your state. Generally, it is possible for terms of an agreement to service termination of other aspects of the agreement. This comes up in employment contracts all the time. The answer to your question most likely exists in the text of your agreement. Take that to a local attorney - aside from the text in the document, there may well be case law in California that would set an upper limit on how long such restrictions can last.

Physician Employment Agreement
New York
How to amend a physician employment agreement?
I am a physician who has recently been offered a position with a new practice. The offer came with a physician employment agreement that I need to sign. However, after further review of the agreement I have identified some changes that I would like to make to the terms of the agreement. I am seeking advice from a lawyer on how to amend the agreement to ensure that my interests are properly represented.
Erdal T.
I am an employment attorney who regularly deals with employment agreements, including those involving physicians. Let me know which provisions concern you. My fee structure depends on the level of my involvement. We can discuss more in an initial phone call to go over your submission.
Employment
Severance Agreement
New York
Updating a severance agreement?
I recently received a severance agreement from my employer and I am unsure if the terms are appropriate for my situation. I was laid off due to restructuring and I am looking to make sure that I am receiving the best possible terms from the agreement. I'm not sure if the agreement should be updated or if it is fair as it is currently written.
Erdal T.
I would have to see the severance to see if the terms are fair.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
