Areas of Practice
Securities
Companies that sell securities to raise money must comply with state and federal securities laws. We help companies navigate the exemptions and filing processes and comply with relevant securities laws.
Business strategy
The startup world is still a new and fierce frontier that requires legal advice from attorneys who are deeply entrenched in the particularities of financial technology law. We give you a holistic approach, so your company can get the best competitive advantage.
financial crimes
The transmittal of monetary value in the U.S. requires compliance with the Bank Secrecy Act and relevant FinCEN and OFAC obligations. We help companies design risk-based AML/KYC programs to ensure compliance with such rules and regulations.
contract review and negotiation
Having served as the General Counsel for multiple startups, we have an appreciation for the legal documents that need to be reviewed and negotiated daily. We can help you review and negotiate documents quickly and inexpensively.
licensing
When monetary value is transmitted to or from a state, it is likely that such state’s money transmission rules are implicated. We help companies navigate the financial regulations in all U.S. states and territories.
Financial technology and blockchain
Financial Technology and Blockchain law is a little bit like the Wild West. There’s a lot of potential, but the rules can seem convoluted and vague at best. Financial Technology and Blockchain law involves sophisticated knowledge of how the preceding areas of practice interact with one another.
