WHAT CLIENTS SAY

"Reed understands the history of regulations around cybersecurity and privacy — where we’ve been and how we got to where we are now."

MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"My philosophy is to understand the client’s business, its competitors, and the client’s industry, as well as the way the client likes to receive legal services. I then strive to provide services tailored to the client that is practical, easy to read, and understand quickly (and to forward internally rather than to recast my response), and, where appropriate, to provide risk-based alternatives. I also try to be as responsive as possible, with the goal of answering every question the same day. For larger projects, I acknowledge the request the same day, provide a proposed budget and time estimate, and request a call to refine the budget and timing estimate and to ensure I understand the deliverable before I get started to avoid inefficiencies."
