Colleagues describe him as "My startup team has been working closely with Ryan for almost six months. He has been an incredible asset to our team as we build our business, providing us with wise counsel and helping us think through critical issues surrounding company structure, fundraising, and partnerships. Ryan is both incredibly responsive to our requests and proactive in helping us anticipate what's coming next. I cannot recommend Ryan highly enough!", "Ryan is understanding, competent, and patient. He takes the time to see what the best solution should be in your business' legal requirements. He's definitely a go-to kind of attorney, and I would recommend him to anyone looking for assistance in their business contracts.", and "We’ve had a great experience working with Ryan; he’s been an invaluable resource and extremely supportive of our growth. From structuring the relationship among our co-founders to negotiating and closing our angel round of financing, Ryan has handled all of our legal needs in a responsive, pragmatic and cost-effective manner.
For us, working with Ryan was the best of both worlds. We were able to hire a lawyer with big firm experience/ability but who had the responsiveness and value-added approach of an entrepreneurial solo practitioner. Ryan was always available (even on nights and weekends) as we undertook the all-important task of raising our first round of financing. Rather than speaking endlessly in legalese, Ryan always gave us practical and actionable advice as we closed the round of financing and got ready to take our company to the next level. Most importantly, he demonstrated that he could go toe-to-toe with bigger firms and more than hold his own.
In addition, Ryan was able to work with us on a flat fee basis. We knew exactly what our legal spend was going to be from Day 1 and that allowed the entire team to work together seamlessly without worrying about ballooning legal costs or being nickel and dimed along the way. For an early stage company, having that certainty was incredibly valuable.
We really enjoy working with Ryan and would highly recommend him to other companies, large and small, for their legal needs."
