As a Shareholder at FSG LAWYERS, I provide legal advice to middle market businesses on their day to day operations and company-defining transactions to help them operate and grow their business while minimizing risk and liability.With over 20 years of experience in complex business matters, I act as outside general counsel to businesses ranging from local startups to national companies. I provide advice to my clients on all major commercial and real estate transactions including the acquisition/disposition and leasing of real property, corporate mergers and acquisition, capital raisings, financings and debt restructurings, as well as provide advice on day to day business matters, including corporate governance, commercial contracts, licensing, and a myriad other corporate and real estate issues faced by most businesses. While my practice is industry agnostic, I have specialized knowledge in the apparel and accessories industry, with an emphasis in representing action sports companies, and the commercial real estate industry.My clients receive quick and precise industry-specific legal advice to help advance their business objectives in a practical and efficient manner. From emerging brand through sale, my clients receive superior personalized service and advice comparable to the national law firms, but in a cost effective manner. Before receiving my law degree from UC Berkeley Law School, I played NCAA Division I Volleyball for both UCSB and MSU which taught me the importance of focus, perseverance and teamwork. Here at FSG LAWYERS, we have assembled an all-star legal team which works together to address the legal needs of our clients, giving our clients more time to focus on their business. When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, water skiing, wake boarding, paddle boarding, hiking and snow skiing.
