FAQs

How can outside corporate counsel support a financing round?
When investors conduct diligence, they expect to see clean corporate records, properly executed board minutes, and consistent equity documentation. Gaps in these areas can slow down, or even derail, a financing. At Orenstein Legal, we help prepare companies for investor scrutiny by organizing records, drafting or reviewing financing documents, and ensuring governance procedures are in place. That way, when the term sheet is ready, your legal foundation is too.
What are common pitfalls in revenue contracting for healthcare and technology companies?
Many growth-stage companies rely on standard forms that don’t scale well or fail to address industry-specific regulations. This can create risk in areas like HIPAA compliance, data use rights, or payment terms that don’t align with growth projections. We help design contracting systems that balance speed and protection, allowing deals to close quickly while avoiding the hidden liabilities that can surface later. Our approach is to keep contracts practical, consistent, and defensible.
What does a strong compliance program actually include?
An effective compliance program is more than a policy binder. It typically includes tailored risk assessments, procedures for monitoring high-risk areas, employee training, and clear reporting lines to the board. For healthcare and technology companies, that may mean specialized protocols around data security, privacy, or AI usage. We build compliance frameworks that regulators recognize, investors respect, and management teams can realistically follow.
How do you advise clients on AI and emerging regulations?
AI in healthcare and technology is moving faster than legislation, which creates uncertainty. We monitor state, federal, and industry developments and translate them into practical steps for product design, marketing, and data governance. Rather than waiting for rules to fully form, we help companies structure policies that anticipate regulatory expectations and reduce future exposure. This proactive approach allows clients to innovate without falling behind on compliance.
What role does board governance play in risk management?
Boards are responsible for overseeing strategy, compliance, and fiduciary duties, and regulators increasingly hold them accountable. Strong governance means accurate board materials, well-kept minutes, and clear documentation of oversight activities. At Orenstein Legal, we don’t just draft documents; we help boards understand their obligations and align governance processes with company growth. This helps minimizes risk while giving directors confidence in their decision-making.
How do data use agreements differ from standard contracts?
Data use agreements must align with privacy laws, healthcare regulations, and the specific ways data is collected and shared. Unlike a simple vendor contract, they often require provisions for security, breach reporting, and permitted uses. We negotiate and draft agreements that not only comply with HIPAA and consumer protection laws, but also support your business model. The result is an agreement that protects data integrity while enabling innovation.
Can outside counsel add value to day-to-day business decisions?
Yes. While many think of outside counsel as only handling transactions or disputes, ongoing advisory support can be just as critical. We regularly help executives weigh contractual risks, prepare for board discussions, and evaluate compliance implications of business initiatives. By being responsive and direct, we act as an extension of your leadership team — providing clarity when decisions need to be made quickly.
How can I design a high-performing business partnership?
The best partnerships balance opportunity with protection. An attorney can help structure agreements that clearly define roles, contributions, revenue sharing, and decision-making authority. Strong partnership contracts also plan ahead for challenges, including dispute resolution and exit strategies, so the relationship can evolve without putting the company at risk. We work with healthcare and technology companies to design partnerships that are both legally sound and commercially effective, setting you up for growth.
