I am the Managing Attorney and founder of Alisme Law LLC, a boutique litigation firm focused on high-stakes business disputes. My practice centers on partnership disputes, shareholder and board conflicts, joint venture breakdowns, and service and commercial contract disputes in which control, leverage, and negotiated outcomes are at risk.
I work with business owners, founders, closely held companies, and parties facing internal conflicts or contractual breakdowns that require careful judgment and strategic timing. My approach to litigation is focused, strategic, and deliberate in service of managing risks and outcomes, not an emotional response or a guaranteed reset. I believe early, informed decision-making often preserves options, while delay quietly erodes leverage.
My work is guided by a commitment to honesty, disciplined judgment, continuous learning, and being a positive influence on those I work with. I value candor even when it is difficult and take a long-term view of my clients’ objectives.

Highly recommend
Joam has been such a great ally and resource for me when it comes to partnership disputes and contract disputes, as well as shareholder actions. His stern yet calm demeanor helps bring things to a close with positive results. I highly recommend working with him.
Thank you for your kind words and for trusting me with your matter. Partnership, shareholder, and contract disputes can be complex and deeply personal, and I am glad we were able to approach yours with clarity and steady focus. I appreciate the opportunity to serve as a resource and ally, and I am grateful for your recommendation.
