Services include company formation, governance documents, venture capital transactions, employment agreements, commercial contracts, intellectual property protection, technology licensing, and mergers and acquisitions.

As a startup and technology lawyer, Britton also advises established businesses on legal matters involving software, artificial intelligence, data privacy, internet agreements, fintech, cryptocurrency, Web3, and other developing areas of technology.

Britton works with companies preparing to buy, sell, restructure, or raise capital, helping clients understand contractual obligations, ownership issues, deal structure, and potential areas of risk.
