I strongly believe that business law must make business sense and that business attorneys must first understand the business behind the business law they practice. My many years in business and my experience with the law from a business perspective will allow you to use the law as a business tool to grow, build, and protect your company. Over the past twenty years I've seen from the perspective of a founder, executive, and CEO the damage that unnecessary business lawyers and litigation can bring a company, in terms of cost, wasted time, and morale. Sometimes companies could have prevented issues with simple measures, and other times they are too quick to jump into a fight. On the other hand, I've also seen what can happen when a business is afraid to take legal action when it is truly called for.
