Great Lawyer

I've hired Robert as corporate counsel at three different venture backed startups I've founded or run and he has been excellent. He is very smart, works incredibly hard and gives great counsel. He doesn't over lawyer but is sure to protect my interests. Great negotiator. I just hired him for my lates...t startup.
