US Connections™

Local Attorney and Liaison for Overseas Companies

To enter the US market or expand within the US market, relationships are key. When overseas companies like yours seek to build relationships for market expansion into and around the US, a local attorney experienced in brand expansion relationships can be invaluable.

I can effectively get parties to the table where you want to get a product into the U.S. market by:

Expanding your existing product lines in the U.S.;
Launching a new product just for U.S. sale;
Getting a U.S. licensee for a product;
Getting a U.S. distributor for a product.

I can represent you in making the proper contacts if you are interested in selling a US product in your home market by:

Getting the rights to license a U.S. product for manufacture and sale in your country;
Getting the rights to distribute U.S. products in your country;
Purchasing U.S. products for sale in your country.

I am an experienced product distribution and licensing attorney and consultant. I know how to approach businesses about product licensing and distribution opportunities.  I understand the things that companies want to see and hear to evaluate and analyze such opportunities. Once deals are entered into, I monitor the local use of your products to ensure all uses comply with deal terms and requirements as well as advise on your proper use of another’s rights.

As your U.S.-based attorney, I can write letters and make telephone calls to introduce your business and discuss the opportunities. The first step to doing business is gaining trust. When you have a local lawyer as your representative, it gains people’s respect more readily and gets conversations going more easily. People also like knowing there is a local point person that they can reach to handle any issues.

If you want to do business in more than one state, I'll act as your primary U.S. lawyer and representative to deal with the multi-state issues involved, such as getting proper licenses, business permissions, corporate formations, real estate leases, partnerships and contracts. I'll be your legal point-person in the United States.

Even if you are already a U.S. based business and you are looking to expand in the above ways, I can help open up the doors and commence the dialogues necessary to make good first impressions, make your company look professional, and commence a productive dialogue and negotiation for the transactions you are seeking.
