"I had the pleasure of working with Laura B. on some recent legal matters, and I genuinely can’t recommend her enough. From start to finish, Laura was professional, responsive, and incredibly efficient. What really stood out to me was how thorough and proactive she was — she didn’t just check the boxes, she went above and beyond to make sure everything was done properly and on time. Legal work can feel overwhelming, but Laura made the entire process smooth and stress-free. She explained everything clearly, answered all my questions promptly, and stayed one step ahead the entire way. I never had to chase her for updates — she was always on top of it, which gave me a ton of peace of mind. It’s rare to find someone who combines legal expertise with such a down-to-earth, approachable style. I felt like I was in really good hands the whole time. I’ll absolutely be working with Laura again for any legal needs that come up in the future, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a sharp, dependable, and genuinely helpful attorney."

Business Attorney

Asheville, NC
18 Yrs Experience
Licensed in CA
University of Pennsylvania

I'm a California-licensed attorney with 18+ years of experience helping everyone from Fortune 500 companies and venture-backed startups to individuals navigating real-life legal situations. I bring an high degree of emotional intelligence to every matter, and am also certified as both a coach and as a counselor. My career started at Fenwick & West, one of Silicon Valley's top law firms, where I worked alongside names like Google, Airbnb, Kleiner Perkins, and Sequoia Capital. From there I moved in - house at companies like Cloudflare, Autodesk, and Enphase - which gave me a practical, business-minded perspective that I bring to every client, no matter the size of the matter. Today I work with businesses and individuals alike. On the business side, that means commercial contracts, leases, startup corporate work, and serving as a fractional general counsel for companies that need a trusted legal partner without the overhead. On the personal side, I help individuals with employment matters, disputes, demand letters, contract review, and the kind of everyday legal situations where you just need someone knowledgeable in your corner. I'm direct, responsive, and I speak plain English — not legalese. Whether you're a founder closing your first deal or an individual facing a situation you've never navigated before, I'll give you the same level of attention and care.

"Adam Jacobowitz is an outstanding attorney. He was honest, knowledgeable, and thorough from the beginning, setting realistic expectations while developing a strong legal strategy. He carefully researched the issues, strengthened my arguments, and ensured every factual and legal point was accurate. What impressed me most was his responsiveness and genuine commitment to helping. He even assisted with an urgent matter outside the original scope of our engagement. If you're looking for an attorney who is professional, ethical, strategic, and truly cares about his clients, I highly recommend Adam Jacobowitz."

I help founders and business owners set up core contracts, deal documents, and ownership terms so they can form companies, close business sales, bring in partners, and launch products without expensive surprises later. I focus on LLC and corporation formations and operating/shareholder agreements, business sales, founder and partner arrangements (including buyouts and separations), commercial contracts (NDAs, MSAs, privacy policies), and IP/SaaS ownership and licensing tied to those deals. Clients describe me as “the antidote to Big Law inefficiency,” “a legal sniper,” and say I’ve “potentially saved hundreds of thousands” by catching gaps other lawyers missed. I do all my own work, explain options in plain English, and give clear scope and hour ranges before I start.

"I’m incredibly grateful to William for his support in drafting a settlement agreement related to a long and frustrating dispute with the homebuilder and prior seller over improperly installed flooring. From the start, William was exceptionally attentive—he took the time to truly understand my concerns, asked thoughtful questions, and made sure every detail reflected my needs. What stood out most was his thoroughness and availability. He answered every question with clarity and patience, never making me feel rushed or dismissed. He walked me through the process step by step, ensuring I felt informed and empowered throughout. His professionalism, clear communication, and legal insight made a complex process feel manageable—and genuinely supported."
