Recent engagements include:
Deal counsel for Easyship Inc. in its Enterprise Agreement with Squarespace, Inc., and in the negotiation of a Master Services Agreement and multiple Statements of Work governing a strategic commercial integration.
Hospitality & Commission Structuring – Drafting specialized Independent Contractor and Revenue Share Agreements for hospitality and service-based businesses, featuring tiered commission frameworks and "pay-when-paid" liquidity protections tailored to the realities of the industry.
