Four defined engagements covering the legal work a small company actually runs into, priced flat so you can decide before you commit.
Deals and negotiations are scoped individually. Tax strategy, estate planning and R&D credits have their own section below.
Defined work is quoted flat: business formation from $2,500, a contract suite from $1,500, and web compliance from $1,950. Ongoing support is a monthly retainer from $1,500. Deals and negotiations are scoped individually. Every figure is a starting point for a scope confirmed in writing before work begins.
E-commerce and dropshipping stores, Amazon FBA sellers, SaaS and web apps, mobile apps, agencies and studios, consultancies, creators and marketplace sellers — California small businesses and ventures generally, whether or not venture funding is anywhere in the plan.

Every engagement above has a defined scope and a fee agreed before work starts. “From” means the figure is the starting point for that defined scope — if your facts require more, you hear the revised number first, not on an invoice afterwards.
I read every enquiry personally and reply within one business day, including when the answer is that this isn’t a fit or that you need less than you think.
No litigation, no dispute representation, and no work requiring admission outside California. If that’s what you need, saying so early is more useful to you than a consultation.
