"Matthew was absolutely excellent to work with. He responded to our project request immediately, was always available via text, phone, or email to answer any questions, and handled our demand letter quickly and efficiently. We got a response same-day as a result of Matthew's demand letter, and we had a check in our hands within a few short weeks of hiring him. He even offered to handle a few additional things, like negotiations and document signing, and finalizing the settlement. Would highly recommend Matthew for your legal needs!"

Hi, I'm Randy. I've been practicing law for over 30 years, with extensive experience drafting, reviewing, and revising contracts for individuals, entrepreneurs, and businesses. I spent nearly 15 years running my own law practice in Richmond, Virginia, where I represented small business owners, professionals, entrepreneurs, and clients in the entertainment industry. That experience taught me that a good contract must do more than address legal requirements. It should clearly define the parties' rights and obligations, anticipate practical problems, and protect my client's interests if the relationship does not go as planned. Contract drafting and review are major parts of my practice. Over the course of my career, I've drafted and reviewed hundreds of agreements. I also review contracts prepared by other attorneys, businesses, and individuals to identify legal issues, assess enforceability, and identify potential compliance issues under current applicable law. My experience includes: • Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements • Employment and independent contractor agreements • LLC operating agreements for single-member and multi-member LLCs • Consulting, coaching, freelancer, and professional services agreements • Residential and commercial leases • NDAs and confidentiality agreements • Entertainment industry agreements • Business formation and corporate documents • Other commercial and business contracts I also have substantial experience preparing estate planning documents, including wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and advance medical directives. I'm currently based in New York City and am licensed to practice law in Virginia. I work remotely with clients on contract projects across the country. My approach is practical and straightforward. I take the time to understand the transaction, the client's objectives, and the risks that need to be addressed. I then draft an agreement that is clear, thorough, and usable in the real world. Whether you need a new agreement drafted, an existing contract reviewed, or revisions to a document you are negotiating, I can help you identify the important issues and prepare a contract that reflects your objectives. I would be glad to discuss your project and how I can help.

"I had a great experience working with Randy. I had a long, somewhat aggressive non-competition employer agreement for a job offer that I wanted to take. He reviewed every point of the agreement within the agreed timeline and provided a very detailed and specific report about the various risks and practical effects it could have on my future career. He even offered very reasonable suggestions to the terms to negotiate for before signing the offer letter. I am very pleased with the outcome and it allowed me to sign the job offer without fear of a clause that I didn't understand."

Lawyer Reviews for Santa Ana Termination And Release Projects

Employee separation agreement & stock option contract

4.3

"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."
