I love contracts - and especially technology-related contracts written in PLAIN ENGLISH! I've worked extensively with intellectual property contracts, and specifically with IT contracts (SaaS, Master Subscriptions Agreements, Terms of Service, Privacy Policies, License Agreements, etc.), and I have built my own technology solutions that help to quickly and thoroughly draft, review and customize complex contracts.

Adam J.

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 was great to work with and generous with his time. He was very quick to respond via email and phone. He did a dual representation between buyer and seller for a stock purchase agreement which seemed like could be tricky to navigate but Adam knew exactly what to say and how to word things so both parties were extremely satisfied. I highly recommend working with him if looking for an attorney."

User Feedback:
Ryenne was very responsive and timely. I appreciated the quick turnaround time and willingness to meet over the holidays. I was disappointed that despite me having sent my questions and all documents ahead of time, it felt like we were starting from scratch on the call and she didn’t know what my questions were. There was also an item that she wasn’t sufficiently able to answer and I had to look up elsewhere. However I am happy with her help overall and she gave me the peace of mind to move forward.
