Background

About Michael Mort

Entrepreneurs will save the world, and I want to help them do it. Everyone should use their own skills to improve society, and the best way to maximize your contribution is to transform your ideas into products and services that people want, then operate companies to deliver. Argent Place Law focuses on the legal needs of entrepreneurs by maximizing your Return On Ideas (the new ROI). We help you turn those ideas into intellectual property; then start, buy and expand companies around that property; and finally plan for the company's management without you. Our team of lawyers at Argent Place Law becomes your General Legal Counsel, but we know what it's like to be entrepreneurs ourselves. We understand that your relationships with partners, customers, investors, suppliers, landlords and employees can give you major headaches, so we take those headaches away. My key skills, and the skills of the Argent Place Law team, include: • Identifying and registering Intellectual Property and using it as a basis to build company value. • Drafting licensing agreements that reflect business goals. • Creating understandable contracts that properly set expectations and allocate risks among the parties. • Negotiating deals large and small. • Helping startups launch cleanly. • Manage government and commercial contracts and the compliance matters required to maintain those customer relationships. • Review and negotiate commercial leases. • Link our clients with key professional resources.
