Khari P.
I’m a New York-based attorney with over 20 years of experience, working at the intersection of litigation and transactional law. I help individuals and businesses create solid legal documents — prenups, contracts, leases, and more — with an eye toward clarity, fairness, and long-term protection. As a litigator, I’ve seen firsthand how vague or one-sided agreements can lead to unnecessary disputes, court battles, and financial stress. That perspective shapes the way I draft and review documents: I build them to stand up, not just get signed. Whether you’re preparing for marriage, launching a business, or resolving a dispute, I bring a practical, client-first approach rooted in legal insight and lived experience. Clients appreciate that I explain the law in plain language, respect their time, and tailor every solution to fit their goals — not just the paperwork. Let’s make sure you’re protected — not just on paper, but in real life.

In addition, I have created and advised on business formation as well as dissolutions, recently doing a business acquisition for a scientist who worked for a major company but desired to create their own product and testing line.

Find Promissory Note Agreement Templates by Type
As a lawyer with a background in contract drafting and litigation, I created this template settlement agreement to help you formalize a resolution to a legal dispute. I also have legal services packages set up if you need additional help with the template (i.e., reviewing it after you filled it out, needing help filling it out, etc.).
Overview of the Template Simple Promissory Note
You can use my template simple promissory note to memorialize a loan agreement, or to borrow money (with or without interest). My simple promissory note lays out all the relevant terms, rights and obligations of the loan, from the amount of the loan itself to the agreed-upon repayment plan.
For context, a proper promissory note should include information such as the amount and date of the loan, the names of the parties (i.e., the lender and borrower), the interest rate on the loan and its beginning date. Your promissory note should also describe how the loan will be paid (e.g., in installments of principal and interest, in installments of interest only, in one lump sum on a specific date, due on demand, etc.).
What is Included in the Template Simple Promissory Note?
My template simple promissory note contains key provisions to help formalize the terms of the loan. For example, my template simple promissory note identifies the value to be received by the borrower and the express promise that the borrower will repay the loan to the lender, along with interest at a specified rate.
My template simple promissory note also contains important language about the payment terms, including the need to repay both the principal and accrued interest. This section also details when loan payments are due and the amount to be paid each month. In addition, there are provisions addressing what steps the lender can take in the event the borrower defaults on the loan and which state law governs the promissory note.
All of the provisions in my template settlement agreement are modifiable so it can be used to accommodate any unique aspects of the loan agreement. I’ve also included recommended language that can be used to fill in specific sections, such as the payment terms.
Who Should Use the Template Simple Promissory Note?
My template simple promissory note was drafted in manner to enable use by any party seeking to formalize a loan agreement, whether that be a lender or borrower.
Benefits of Using the Template Simple Promissory Note
My template simple promissory note was designed for simplicity, clarity, and to be user-friendly. These features can help both the borrower and lender reach an agreement on the parameters of a loan in clear, understandable language.
Having a formalized promissory note is helpful since it memorializes the terms and conditions of the loan agreement and can be used as evidence in the event a legal dispute arises between the borrower and lender.
If there is a legal dispute surrounding the terms of the promissory note, you may need to escalate the matter to litigation. If that situation arises, having an experienced attorney by your side can pay dividends. My legal services are available. If hired, I will be there for you every step of the way, offering clear communication, accurate legal guidance, and proactive solutions.
