In particular, I have a growing UCC practice and enjoy assisting companies with commercial sales, equipment leasing, and secured borrowing. I also provide counsel to companies with respect to general procurement and master vendor agreements.I have represented companies from industries as diverse as food production, heavy manufacturing, and telecommunications. In addition, I focus a significant portion of my practice assisting energy companies on the development, purchase, and sale of wind, solar, small-hydro, or bio-fuels projects.I am interested in the context behind transactions and the culture of the relevant stakeholders. To fill my genuine curiosity about my clients' businesses, I often make field trips to visit clients at their facilities.
