We don't just understand data privacy and AI governance – it's our focus. We act as your fractional general counsel for AI projects, vendor contracts, and product launches so your team can move fast without taking on hidden legal risk.

Use us for:

• Helping you map risks, set guardrails, and align your AI use with laws, policies, and stakeholder expectations—before a regulator, customer, or employee raises a red flag.

• Reviewing and stress‑testing how you’re using agents, LLMs, and automation in your products and internal workflows.

We can create an AI contracting playbook (tailored to your company’s use cases) so that your team knows what to look out for when engaging AI vendors (particularly if the AI model will get access to your confidential or proprietary information.). This is particularly important for SaaS companies, e-commerce, and consumer tech.

We will also evaluate your use cases and help you create a review program for AI vendors that fits seamlessly into your current procurement workflow.

What about deploying AI? No problem. We work with your product teams to advise on how to launch a new feature using AI, in a way that keeps you in compliance with current laws, but also gives you an edge on the competition. Your GC (if you have one) does not have to do this alone; we are here to supercharge her efforts (and we’re happy to play project manager too).

Need to build a privacy program from scratch? We’ll do that for you, and give you the tools for continuous monitoring and documentation.

Use us for:

• Assessing how you collect, share, and store personal and “borderline” health data across your apps, platforms, and vendors.

• Updating your privacy notices, internal policies, and data flows so they match what you actually do and can stand up to scrutiny from regulators, partners, and security‑minded customers.
  

Not sure what privacy laws apply to you? Regardless of your customer profile, if you use SMS marketing, you are also subject to federal privacy laws, and there are rules around e-mail marketing too. Moreover, once you hit $25 million AR, you are automatically subject to California’s privacy laws, and you will want to make sure your website (and any tracking technologies or use of pixels) is in compliance. We conduct privacy impact assessments and craft data privacy policies and procedures, as well as advise on your current privacy program (data retention and deletion), to help you ensure you are not overlooking any unnecessary risks.

Your marketing team may be pushing to leverage vendors that offer great and cheap content. But do they use gen AI to do it? We bring our passion about intellectual property to help you secure yours. We provide strategic counsel on copyright and trademark ownership, licensing, and infringement issues.

Have an overflow of contract review and need some red-lining and negotiation backup? Yelena was a complex commercial litigator before working as a General Counsel. She’s seen how certain provisions actually play out, in the event of a dispute, coupled with the business experience of understanding what to press on. Let’s make your agreements a tool not a liability.

Use us for:

• Drafting and negotiating SaaS agreements, DPAs, BAAs, data and content licenses, and AI‑specific clauses (use restrictions, training rights, attribution, liability).

• Standardizing playbooks and templates so your sales, partnerships, and procurement teams can move faster without improvising risk allocation in every deal.
