Gretchen has always had a passion for the field of business. It was in 1986, that she initially decided to go to law school, and was determined to help businesses. She  comes from an entrepreneurial family and wanted to help small businesses grow and get the funding they needed. In law school, Gretchen concentrated on business organization, reorganization and securities law because she wanted to help businesses through all phases, including startup, funding, reporting and acquisition.

After concentrating on business throughout her career, Gretchen decided to start her own law firm in 2005 as an opportunity for small businesses to get quality, hands-on advice and support while they implement their business plan and work on the day-to-day operation. From her perspective, your legal counsel, whether in-house or external, should work with you as a member of your team, familiar with your business and its particular needs. This knowledge helps not just with the routine matters, such as negotiating license agreements, employment agreements and leases, but with broader issues of disclosure and due diligence when and if the time comes for the business to seek outside investment or sell.

She also provides back-end consulting services to legal counsel on areas outside of their main practice areas as well as conflict work on issues where independent counsel is required for shareholders or members of management.

Gretchen’s approach is to develop long-term relationships with clients by being an accessible, responsive and reliable resource when they need one so that they can quickly get back to running their business and making it successful.
