Practice areas
Law that understands
your business.

13+ years at the intersection of law, technology and business. Three practice areas that together cover the full lifecycle of your company.

Offer
Legal services tailored
to your business.

I’m not just another law firm billing hours. I’m a partner who understands your product, knows your market and spots risks before they become problems.

Who I work with

I serve tech companies, fintechs, startups and SMEs — from founders preparing their first round to companies needing ongoing legal support. I also represent clients in commercial disputes and regulatory proceedings.

What sets me apart

A decade of in-house work taught me to think like a business, not a law firm. I know deadline pressure, understand burn rate, and know that “we’ll check and get back in 2 weeks” is not the answer you need. I respond fast, write clearly, and always say what I’d do in your position.

How we work together

We start with a free call (20 min), where I learn about your business and identify priorities. Then I propose a cooperation model — consultation, subscription, or Fractional GC. No hidden costs, transparent terms from day one.

What you get
→
Priority response time — reply within 4h on business days, urgent matters same day
→
Single point of contact — no more coordinating 3 firms that don’t know about each other
→
Full scope — contracts, T&Cs, compliance, GDPR, negotiations, disputes — all in one place
→
Language you understand — zero legal jargon, actionable recommendations instead of 20-page opinions
→
Cross-border experience — 9+ jurisdictions, network of trusted local partners
Free consultation
Let’s talk about what your company needs.

20 minutes, no obligations. I’ll tell you if and how I can help — and if I’m not the right fit, I’ll point you to who is.

I am a Legal Counsel with over 13 years of experience serving businesses. I specialise in corporate law, technology regulations, fintech compliance and cross-border transactions.

For a decade I served as in-house General Counsel at various companies. Today I offer the same experience as a Fractional General Counsel — flexibly and on a subscription basis.
