Traditional lawyers fix problems after they happen. A Product Counsel prevents them during the build. I work directly with your engineering and product teams during the development phase. By embedding "Privacy by Design" and IP strategy into the product roadmap—rather than just reviewing the final contract—I ensure your feature launch doesn't get blocked by compliance issues later.

No. I handle the cross-border compliance stack end-to-end. Because I am dual-licensed, I act as your bridge. I align your existing US privacy frameworks (CCPA/CPRA) with Quebec’s Bill 25 and Canada’s PIPEDA. I can also serve as your mandated external Privacy Officer to satisfy local governance requirements without the headcount of a local hire.

Yes. My focus is "Deal Velocity." I don't redline for sport. I review Master Services Agreements (MSAs), Data Processing Agreements (DPAs), and SOWs with a commercial lens. My goal is to spot the "Revenue Blockers" (indemnities, IP ownership, caps on liability) and ignore the stylistic changes that slow down closing.

It is an embedded legal leadership role, not just "hours on call." For tech companies that are too big for hourly-only outside counsel but too small for a full-time CLO, I join your Slack channels and leadership meetings. I manage your entire legal function—from board governance, sales contracts negotiation to vendor procurement—at a predictable monthly cost.

Yes. I build AI Governance frameworks aligned with the EU AI Act and US standards. I help you draft "Acceptable Use Policies" for internal AI tools and negotiate terms with AI vendors to ensure you aren't accidentally training their models with your proprietary data. I also help audit your AI solution to ensure compliance.
