    Zakir K Mir, Esq. I am a corporate attorney with experience in the US, Canada, Europe, Asia and the MENA region (Middle East and North Africa). I am a member of the bar in Pennsylvania, and have worked as Corporate Counsel for a major global logistics company, overseeing legal matters in the US/Canada, Europe and Middle East. Subsequently, I worked in private practice, and now manage my own digital legal consultancy. I have litigation experience and have represented clients in lawsuits as well. However, my specialty is contract law, corporate law and structure, legal documentation, Civil Law, and Immigration. Currently I serve clients in North America (Canada/US) and the Middle East (Dubai, GCC Region)/Asia/Europe through an office in Toronto, Canada and Manama, Bahrain, respectively. I split time between these locations. PLEASE NOTE: Most of my work is not on UpWork, however, I am trying to bring more business on here, and also work with a larger variety of clients. If I've bid on your project, I have probably reviewed it carefully and believe it fits well with my expertise. Also, despite any ratings, the best way to figure out if I am a good fit is to have a preliminary discussion and set the scope of your project. This discussion is all free and I also offer free assistance and consultation in our initial discussions. So let's talk! Each client is different and each project has its own needs, whether big or small. Therefore, I have a strict personal mandate to make sure that I am reliable, accessible, honest and attentive to your needs whenever we work together. Please review the documents in the "portfolio" section below to verify my credentials/licensing (below the review section). Some career highlights include: (You can also browse my credentials and testimonials produced in my portfolio documents below). -Litigating major cases for my previous clients and winning judgments/settlements in excess of $500k-$2 million USD (one case I worked on as part of a team had a $20m USD settlement in my client's favor as well. However, I was part of a large team for this case). -Reviewing thousands/tens of thousands of contracts, and developing expertise with contracts and terms and conditions. -Drafting credit control, terms and conditions and policy documents, which significantly mitigated risk and reduced costs/expenses for my previous company. -Forming offshore and US based corporations to create a complex and well integrated corporate structure to enable tax savings and the efficient allocation of corporate assets. -Registering many trademarks successfully in the US and internationally (UK/EU/Germany/Canada) via the USPTO and WIPO process. -Assisting a large number of clients (over 200) in obtaining visas, permanent residency or other Immigration status in the US and Canada (with partners). I will be happy to be of service to any interested clients. INSURANCE DISCLAIMER: Also, do note that because I work offshore, there is no requirement or possibility for Professional Liability Insurance in my Jurisdiction, and therefore the terms of liability and insurance requirements related to my work on UpWork are governed by the PA rules of Professional Conduct and UpWork Terms and Conditions.

    Let me use my years of experience as a business and corporate attorney to assist you with your legal needs and I am sure you will be pleased with the added value I bring to the table. BUSINESS CONTRACTS AND TRANSACTIONS I have handled numerous business transactions such as sale of a business, asset purchase agreements, adding partners or members to a limited liability company, and advising on joint ventures. Just some of the many contracts I have drafted include: - Consulting Agreements; - Operating Agreements; - Partnership Agreements; - Founder Agreements; - Joint Venture Agreements; - Shareholder Agreements; - Independent Contractor Agreements; - Confidentiality Agreements; - Non-circumvention and Non-disclosure Agreements; - Non-solicitation Agreements; - Settlement Agreements with Non-Dispaaragement Clauses; - Hold Harmless and Indemnity Agreements; - Warranty and Disclaimer Clauses; - Distribution Agreements; - Licensing Agreements; - Finder's Fee Agreements; - Website Terms and Conditions; - Website Privacy Policies; - Employment Agreements; - Financing Agreements; - Term Sheets; and - Memoranda of Understanding. WEBSITES Regarding website Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policies I can usually offer a flat rate fee after discussing the matter further and finding out exactly what type of website is involved. If it is not an Interactive website or platform (web visitors cannot leave comments, reviews, or network with one another) then it is different than the disclosures and disclaimers I use for a site that does allow visitors and customers to interact. The liability and risk issues are much different. I have done over 20 Terms and Conditions, Privacy Policies Disclaimers, and Refund Policies for the following types of websites in just the past 2 years: - subscription based platforms - hiring/networking based platforms - ecommerce companies - service based companies - financial information websites - SaaS businesses - PaaS (Platform as a Service) - news and informational websites - crypto platforms BUSINESS PLANNING AND STRATEGY I have advised many business clients, large and small, with planning and strategy, strategic relationships, corporate restructuring, international product sales, capital raising options, deal structure, term sheet proposals, as well as funding and financing options. I have advised clients regarding PaaS, subscription based, and networking themed businesses. BUSINESS FORMATION AND STRUCTURING My law practice has involved representing clients in business matters, including structuring all forms of legal entities and preparing contracts such as partnership agreements, joint venture agreements, operating agreements for LLCs, shareholder agreements, purchase agreements, and employment agreements. I have also advised clients in joint venture structuring, provided networking opportunities, and structured various transactions to meet the needs of my clients. Often I assist my clients with the drafting of a term sheet or memorandum of understanding to make sure the parties are in agreement before contracts are drafted. Please reach out to me so we can have a free, short call and I will be glad to answer any questions you may have and explain why I am the best fit for your project. I can usually offer a flat rate fee after discussing the documents or legal services that are needed.

    I'm a long time US attorney who is now semi-retired. I practice only on the web, focusing on providing startup and business formation services to entrepreneurs across the country as well as to nonprofit 501(c)(3)s. If you are starting a new business, I can compare the options open to you - sole proprietorship, general partnership, corporation, LLC and so on - and explain their details. Once you have decided, I can file the documents required by your state, prepare additional documents and obtain an EIN for you. Your new business will also need a variety of contracts, both among business owners and between the business and its customers. I can prepare these contracts for you. I also do entity transfers or conversions - corporation to LLC and vice versa - within states or from one state to another. I work almost exclusively on a flat-fee basis for your protection. I would be delighted to help you get your new business properly organized or draft contracts and other documents for existing businesses. For more information about business entities, download a free copy of my ebook "Should Your Small Business Become a Corporation or an LLC? A Look at Liabilities, State & Federal Taxation & More!" from my website types-of-business-ownership.com Thank you. ~Jimmy Verner

    I am an attorney licensed in NY since 2009. In 2018 I moved my practice exclusively online and have been offering clients unbundled legal services ever since. My areas of expertise are Family Law, Civil Litigation, Contracts and Employment Law, but I am happy to discuss any legal issue you may have on your mind. Even if I do not know the answer, I can still help you find it! The "unbundled" services I offer include: legal research, case strategy sessions, guidance to pro se litigants, consultations, and legal writing. I am very passionate about the law, and will always go the extra mile to make sure the work I produce meets the expectations of my clients and surpasses those of my adversaries. I am also happy to review any legal documents written by an AI for a flat fee per page. Just so you have the peace of mind that there is some human oversight in the Process! Finally, I am fluent in Spanish and Portuguese, and able to translate and certify any documents (legal or otherwise) in those languages.
