Lawyer Reviews for Des Moines Author Agreement Projects
Draft Contract for Independent Fiction Writers
"Ryenne knew what I was asking for better than I did. She wrote a very thorough first draft and instructed me on many legal differences between copyrights and licenses. I value her hard work and patience."
Childrens' book author contract with a publisher
"Very pleased with Amber."
Hi, I'm a first time author and I have contract from a legit publisher in the UK. My editor,(also in publishing) marke it up a little with his concerns, for you. Although you would have caught it.
"I was very pleased with all the work Sara S. did as she knew both very technical details about the contract and also had good strategic ideas. One might want to ask how long the project might take, but in some ways that's largely up to you, like how many changes are your requesting and what do you want her to look at. For the flat fee, we got a lot done. And she has expertise in many areas if you look at her reviews, but it also doesn't hurt that she did a book with a hybrid publisher (one that you have to submit your book - one who I actually spoke to at one point, and they have to choose you.) All in all I think I think we covered quite a bit for the flat fee."
Review a publishing contract with an indie press in Arizona (1 book).
"Sheila was wonderful to work with and really helped me with my contract."
Book Illustration Contract
"I had an excellent experience working with Ryenne! She was patient and thorough, taking time to explain why her revisions/suggestions were important. I learned a ton! Ryenne will be my go-to for future contract reviews and she should be yours too!"

Most of my career has been as in-house counsel for technology companies. My responsibilities included managing all vendor/procurement contracts and compliance, customer/partner/reseller contracts and compliance, data security/privacy compliance and incident responses, HR/employment issues, and legal operations. I am very comfortable negotiating Commercial Contracts, Vendor Agreements, and Procurement Contracts for goods, services, and licensing, as well as addressing Employment & Labor, Intellectual Property, and Data Privacy issues and compliance. I specialized and have a certificate in IP in law school and continued to develop in that area as in-house counsel for Interactive Intelligence, Genesys, which are unified communication companies, and KAR Global in the automobile digital services lines of business.
