Operator-Side Counsel for Multi-Site Facilities, Construction, and Lease Risk
I help multi-site operators fix the contracts that quietly drive cost, disruption, and dispute — MSAs, SOWs, construction documents, and leases built from the perspective of someone who has actually owned the operational risk.

Your contracts look fine on paper. They fail in the field.
Most multi-site operators inherit vendor agreements, lease forms, and construction templates drafted without operational input. The result: scope gaps that create disputes, pricing that invites leakage, SLAs no one can measure, and lease clauses that surface as surprises at the worst possible time.
The gap between what legal drafts and what operations needs is where cost, risk, and friction accumulate — quietly, across hundreds of locations. A hundred locations means a hundred versions of the same traps.
I close that gap.
Now taking Portfolio Lease Review engagements
Attorney-led, AI-accelerated lease review for operators with 25+ sites. Every lease read. One portfolio-wide R&M responsibility tracker.
Three Practice Areas. One Operator Perspective.
Multi-Site Facilities Contracting
MSA review, drafting, and rebuild. SOW frameworks that control scope. SLA/KPI packages that are actually measurable. Invoicing and controls language that reduces leakage. Vendor governance terms built for real accountability.
Operator-Side Construction Counsel
Project agreements, design/professional services contracts, scope and allowance structures, schedule and contingency terms, field directive protocols, and closeout language — all built for active, occupied sites.
Lease Risk & Portfolio Support
LOI and lease review, CAM and TI negotiation, surrender and repair obligations, notice and default provisions, and translating lease terms into operator checklists your field teams can actually follow.
I have sat in the operator’s chair.
Before practicing law, I served as Director of Facilities & Energy for a national operator managing a 2,800+ location portfolio. I oversaw a $130M+ annual budget, managed 370 vendor contracts, led SLA/KPI modernization across service lines, and reduced end-of-lease exposure across surplus properties.
I write agreements for legal enforceability and field execution. I understand how contract terms affect facilities teams, vendor performance, invoicing cycles, escalation paths, and site uptime — because I lived it.
Operator Empathy
I understand how legal terms play out on the ground — in field execution, vendor management, and invoicing cycles.
Portfolio-Scale Credibility
2,800+ locations, $130M+ budget, 370 vendor contracts — real portfolio-scale operational experience.
Cross-Functional Fluency
Legal + Facilities + Real Estate + Construction + Finance + Vendor Governance — all in one counsel.
Built for multi-site operators managing real portfolio complexity.
Healthcare, retail, restaurant/QSR, urgent care, veterinary, dental, specialty services, storage, convenience, education, fitness — if you operate across 20 to 500+ locations, these are your contracts.
