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 Since assets can change value daily, traditional "splitting an asset list" methods are often outdated within a week of signing.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!"

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 am a U.S.-licensed attorney with more than a decade of experience in complex litigation and intellectual property matters. I have practiced at leading Am Law firms including Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman, Arent Fox, and Sughrue Mion, and I currently operate my own law practice. I have extensive experience handling high-stakes patent litigation, drafting pleadings and briefs, managing large-scale discovery, preparing and defending depositions, and appearing before federal courts and administrative bodies such as the PTAB and ITC. 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.
"Alton was excellent to work with. He helped us review and finalize a release for video content. Responsive and thorough."

Partnership
Assignment Of Partnership Interest
Texas
Can a partner assign their interest in a partnership without the consent of the other partners?
I am a partner in a small business partnership, and one of my fellow partners is looking to assign their interest in the partnership to a third party. However, we do not have any provisions in our partnership agreement regarding the assignment of partnership interests. I am concerned about the implications of this assignment and whether it can be done without the consent of the other partners. I want to understand the legal rights and obligations surrounding the assignment of partnership interests in order to make an informed decision and protect the interests of all partners involved.
Thomas D.
It is highly unusual that your partnership agreement does not address this issue. If there is no agreement to the contrary, then subject to very limited exceptions, a partner can assign its partnership interest.

New York
What will you want to know to put together a partnership agreement?
I need to put a partnership agreement together and am wanting to know what information I should gather.
Donya G.
You need to have the understanding of the parties - who will be doing what work and how much will they receive based on the work they will do. DISCLAIMER The answers to these questions do not constitute legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship with the attorney and anyone who reviews these responses.

Settlement Agreement
Massachusetts
How binding is a settlement agreement?
I recently entered into a settlement agreement with a former business partner. We both agreed to the terms of the settlement, however, I am now concerned that the other party may not follow through with their obligations. I want to know how binding the settlement agreement is and if there are any legal consequences if the other party does not fulfill their obligations.
Patrick N.
First of all, it matters who drafted the agreement, who are the parties to the agreement, and what precisely is being "settled"? Typically an "agreement for judgment" is the most binding settlement agreement, since the agreement becomes an order of the court once it is approved by the presiding judge. However, you have to already be in court (i.e., sue or be sued) to get the benefit of that. Was there a lawsuit filed or a lawsuit threatened?
Partnership
Dissolution Agreement
New York
What are the legal steps required to dissolve a partnership?
I am currently in a partnership with another individual in a small business, but due to irreconcilable differences and a significant decline in the business's success, I have decided that it is best to dissolve the partnership. We do not have a formal partnership agreement in place, and I am unsure of the legal steps and requirements involved in dissolving a partnership, such as notifying creditors, dividing assets and liabilities, and terminating any existing contracts. I am seeking guidance on the legal process and potential implications of dissolving the partnership.
Damien B.
Even without an initial partnership agreement, drafting a dissolution agreement can clarify the terms of the dissolution, asset distribution, and responsibilities, reducing potential disputes. Make sure to pay off all outstanding partnership debts and obligations and notify all creditors. Consulting with an attorney experienced in New York partnership law is advisable to navigate the dissolution process effectively and ensure compliance with all legal requirements.
Partnership
Limited Liability Partnership Agreement
California
What are the advantages and disadvantages of forming a limited liability partnership (LLP) for my business?
I am currently in the process of starting a small business with a partner, and we are considering forming a limited liability partnership (LLP) as our business structure. We have heard that LLPs offer certain benefits such as limited personal liability for partners, but we are also aware that there may be some drawbacks, such as potential tax implications or restrictions on ownership. We would like to understand the advantages and disadvantages of forming an LLP so that we can make an informed decision about the best structure for our business.
Dolan W.
Hello! There are some advantages to an LLP for sure. The first one is partners in an LLP are generally protected from personal liability for business debts and obligations. Each partner is also shielded from liability for the negligent acts of other partners, which can be a big advantage in professions with potential liability concerns, such as legal or financial services. One of the biggest advantages is tax-related. Similar to a general partnership, an LLP allows profits and losses to pass through to individual partners’ tax returns, avoiding double taxation. This setup can reduce the tax burden compared to a traditional corporation. LLPs also have an easy set-up and are bogged down by dense corporate bylaws like corporations and because certain licensed professions, like law or accounting, are required to operate as LLPs, it adds a sense of credibility and professionalism. The downsides? California limits LLPs primarily to certain licensed professions, such as attorneys, accountants, and architects, as I mentioned above. This restriction may limit your options if your business does not fall into these categories. You may need an LLC if it's not one of those professions. Also, California requires LLPs to pay an annual minimum franchise tax of $800, which may be a burden for smaller operations. If you need money, investors or lenders might prefer the corporate structure, which they view as more stable. Best of luck. We can draft documents like partnership agreements for you. Dolan
