    I have over 30 years of experience as a corporate paralegal from the top firms in Chicago, and specialize in two areas: (1) Contract management and negotiation, including contract analysis, drafting of MSAs, employment contracts, construction contracts, negotiating on key terms, preparing addendums, and managing document execution; and (2) corporate entity formations in all 50 states, including LLCs, C-Corps, and S-Corps, and all compliance requirements such as drafting operating agreements, resolutions, bylaws, etc. A study has found that "for 42% of enterprises, the top driver for improvements in the management of contracts is the pressure to better assess and mitigate risks" and additionally, "nearly 65% of enterprises report that contract lifecycle management (CLM) has limited its exposure to financial and legal risk." I assist my clients with setting non-negotiable contract clauses and parameters for negotiations on additional terms. It's a difficult process to arrive at the decision to pass on a project due to contract constraints, but most companies have had the bad experience of signing a poorly written contract and being on the losing end. My contract management experience spans many industries, including subcontracts in the construction industry, architecture field, manufacturing, SaaS, healthcare, influencer, service, and creative, which also includes AIA contracts. I have worked with general contractors, architects, subcontractors, manufacturers, and vendors, which parties are oftentimes opposing parties in a contract, so I am in tune with each party's concerns when entering a contract and am able to utilize my negotiation and communication skills to bring the parties together to agree on a mutually protective and beneficial contract. I have extensive experience in the following: Complex document prep/redlining/version control Complex financial documentation including IPO offering statements Contracts (including AIA contracts) RFPs/Proposals Bylaws/Articles of Incorporation I have keen interpersonal skills such as conflict resolution, communication, problem solving, and time management, which enables me to be an effective participant in any situation. I am a deft problem solver and will always find a solution to any problem a client is facing. Also, I have traveled extensively both internationally and domestically, which developed my cultural and political awareness and enables me to work more effectively with diverse groups. Teamwork, communication, integrity, and excellence comprise the foundation of my services. Teamwork is essential and I will assist you with any task that advances your strategic goals. I pride myself on fostering a collaborative environment that results in higher productivity and success for my clients. Communication is also essential and I will always keep you informed of the status of a project. I will never compromise my integrity and will always maintain the confidentiality of my clients and their business. Trust is essential between both parties and clear communication and teamwork maintains that trust. Following these three tenets guarantees excellence in both quality and service. My priority is your success! No task is too small or too complex, and I will provide efficient and effective assistance with any project you have. I will be happy to meet with you to learn about you and your company.

    Hi there! I'm an attorney with a passion for writing and editing -- on legal issues and a wide variety of other topics. Before my legal career, I worked as a writer and editor for newspapers, magazines, and websites. Boiling down complex subjects into short pieces that readers can understand and relate to is always a goal of mine, regardless of the topic involved. Over the past year, I've taken pride in producing hundreds of legal blog entries that incorporate SEO techniques while remaining readable and relatable. I'd be glad to help anyone develop content that can boost their firm or business. I currently work as a general practice attorney and have a range of legal experience covering many of the areas that people have difficulties with in their personal lives. Divorce, child custody, creditor issues, contract disputes, and estate planning are some of the complex areas that I've worked in and written about. I am also a court-certified domestic relations mediator with experience mediating a wide range of disputes, including high-conflict divorce and custody matters. If you need somebody to mediate your dispute, I can help. I am highly responsive and easy to work with on projects big or small. I look forward to hearing from you, and would love to help!

    You’ve got a lot riding on this document—so why hand it off to someone who just plays with words? I’m Michael, a strategy-savvy communications pro with 10+ years of experience translating high-stakes business needs into writing that wins approvals, unlocks opportunities, and gets taken seriously. New to Upwork, but I’m not new to the work. I’ve ghostwritten pitch decks for founders, drafted licensing appeals for cannabis operators, and crafted certified-style letters for legal teams... I've been quietly powering serious decisions behind the scenes for years. From licensing applications and dispute responses to investor-ready business plans and polished pitch decks, I build documents that make people say yes. You know the kind of writing I’m talking about: → The kind that gets you licensed instead of lost in red tape. → The kind that calms zoning boards and compliance officers. → The kind that sounds like you hired a $350/hr attorney... minus the invoice and the attitude. Whether you’re applying for a license, fighting a local ordinance, closing a deal, or simply need to sound like the confident professional you actually are—I’ll help you say it clearly, smartly, and with undeniable credibility. SERVICES I OFFER -- Business & Legal-Style Writing • Licensing, compliance, and municipal correspondence • Certified-style letters & dispute documentation • Business plans tailored to regulatory or investor use -- Investor-Ready Materials • Executive summaries, pitch books, and pro forma polishing • Strategy-driven business plans that balance vision with viability -- Copy Editing & Tone Polishing • AI-generated or stiff content reworked to sound sharp, clear, and human • Branding alignment, tone refinement, and clarity upgrades 🌿 Cannabis Industry Expertise • State & local licensing support (adult-use & medical) • Zoning challenges, neighbor letters, policy arguments • Operational messaging and community engagement materials that don’t read like stoner blogs Background That Backs It Up As a former COO and longtime communications consultant, I’ve been in the trenches—leading operations, managing investor relations, and crafting the exact kind of documents I now write for others. I’ve helped startups secure permits, land funding, respond to enforcement letters, .and fix messaging misfires... With one goal in mind: get results. I've also worked directly with attorneys, city officials, and government agencies—so I know how to write with the tone and structure that gets traction when it matters most. My clients include entrepreneurs, legal teams, real estate developers, compliance experts, and small businesses with one thing in common: they need writing that doesn't mess around. -- Why Clients Come Back Because I don’t just write—I strategize. I ask the right questions, align messaging to outcomes, and anticipate how your audience will read between the lines. You’re not just buying words on a page. You’re getting clarity, persuasion, and a partner who knows what moves the needle. -- Ideal For: • Licensing & zoning applications (incl. cannabis, real estate, health) • Regulatory rebuttals and structured appeals • Strategic business communication (investor decks, stakeholder letters) • Clients who need professional polish without the law firm markup -- Additional Perks: • Fast turnaround (when the clock is ticking) • NDA-friendly (your secrets are safe) • Open to long-term contracts or ghostwriting arrangements -- Final Word There are a lot of writers out there. But if you need someone who knows how to operate in real-world, high-pressure scenarios, where tone, precision, and outcomes matter—I’m your guy. I won’t waste your time. I won’t waste your opportunity. I definitely won’t waste your shot to make it count.
