Private Equity & Securities
“So many companies take risks every day that they’re not even aware of.”
Complying with SEC regulations and Blue Sky Laws
So many companies take risks every day that they’re not even aware of. As they say, you don’t know what you don’t know, right? Wrong.
Failure to comply with SEC regulations and Blue Sky laws could result in investors (including Aunt Joe and your neighbor, Howard who were involved in your “friends and family round”) getting all of their money back and potentially even filing a lawsuit against you or your company for securities fraud, landing a business problem on your Corporation’s doorstep, especially when considering future investment rounds.
We work with you and your team of trusted advisors, which should include an experienced CPA and tax consultant (no, they are not both created equal), to determine which federal and state exemptions you can rely on when entertaining a private capital raise (this legalize for “raising or borrowing money from anyone that isn’t you or an institution”). Most capital raises we deal with will end up relying on one of the following federal exemptions available from securities registration: Regulation D, Regulation A/A+, or Regulation S.

Testimonials
It is rare to find professionals who care and are completely honest with you from the start and understand that starting a new business is intimidating at times. Michelle is one of these rare lawyers who took the time and made us feel like VIPs. This may be the first time we used her services, but definitely not the last!"
Michelle was on time, prepared for the call, professional, and straight to the point (which I really appreciated)! She is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to listen to my concerns and provide me with as much information as I needed so that I could make an informed decision. Highly recommend!"
It was so easy to set up my consultation, her turnaround time was super fast, and I could always reach her about any questions I had. I had a great experience with her and I will go to her in the future for any other business needs my company has."
