Work With Me

Built for a Specific Kind of Client

I work with creators, founders, tech companies, and agencies. If you are building a brand, launching a product, negotiating deals, or protecting what you have built, you are in the right place.

Working with me means direct access. No associates fielding your questions. No billing surprises. Work is flat-fee: you know what you are paying before anything begins. I practice in California, Quebec, and Ontario. I was in your industry before I was a lawyer.

Ways to Work Together

  • 01

    Project-Based

    A specific legal matter handled from start to finish. Trademark filing, contract drafting, IP registration, dispute response. Flat-fee pricing. You know what you are paying, and what the deliverable is, before we begin.

  • 02

    Monthly Retainer

    Ongoing legal support for clients with recurring needs. A set monthly arrangement covering defined services: contract reviews, legal questions, regulatory guidance, and general counsel support. Predictable cost, consistent access.

  • 03

    Fractional General Counsel

    For companies that need a legal team without the overhead of hiring one. StarGuard Law acts as embedded counsel: attending key meetings, reviewing contracts before signature, advising on strategic decisions, and building legal infrastructure as the business grows. Available to tech companies, agencies, and creator-led businesses at a cost that makes sense for the stage they are at.

The Process

  1. Step 1 — Book a Free Discovery CallStart here. Ten minutes to confirm we are a good fit. No advice, no commitment. If the situation calls for a different kind of legal support, you leave knowing where to go.

  2. Step 2 — Strategy CallIf there is a fit, book a 30 or 60-minute strategy call. This is where the real conversation happens: what you need, what the legal situation looks like, and what the right approach is. The call fee is credited toward your first engagement.

  3. Step 3 — Scope the EngagementAfter the strategy call, the engagement is structured and priced. You know what you are paying, what the deliverable is, and when to expect it.

  4. Step 4 — Get to WorkThe engagement begins. Direct access throughout: questions answered, documents reviewed, strategy updated as the situation develops. You are not handed off.
