About Christopher Tillson

WHAT I DO: I help companies increase profitability, achieve scale, and ensure compliance by drafting, negotiating, and closing successful contracts and implementing contracting processes that maximize business opportunity and minimize legal risk. WHO I WORK WITH: I partner with companies and their owners, executives, directors, officers, managers, salespeople, business development leaders, procurement and outsourcing leaders, in-house counsel, and contract managers. WHAT MAKES ME DIFFERENT: Laser-focused on results, I always begin with the end goal in mind - achieving your business objectives and success. I leverage a global team of specialists and over 20 years of personal experience helping business leaders throughout the world grow revenue while simultaneously managing risk. My experience includes renewable energy, technology, Fintech, financials, distribution, manufacturing, franchising, fitness, travel and leisure, telecommunications, services, multi-unit retail, eCommerce, aviation, aerospace, automotive, biotech, life sciences, healthcare, and multi-brand restaurant groups, among others. HOW I DO IT: Your initial consultation and contract assessment are always free of charge, requiring no commitment or risk whatsoever. I then invest my own time and effort (again, free of charge to you) to study and learn your business and objectives. I then propose an appropriate strategy and provide you with estimates on fees and turnaround times. If you agree, we proceed. Whether it’s one simple contract, or the creation of template/form agreements or playbooks, you are always in control and there are no surprises. WHAT CLIENTS SAY: “Christopher’s calm, knowledgeable, structured approach to the law, combined with his passion for the success and interest of his clients makes him an invaluable resource.” - CEO of Florida-based technology company. “Christopher and his team revised and improved several of our commercial contract templates that are critical to our business. The work was excellent, on time, and within budget.” - General Counsel of Michigan-based manufacturer. “If you need contracts, Christopher is your guy. After creating templates, he helped us take our commercial contracting to the next level with contract playbooks, guidelines for real-time implementation, red flag checklists, etc. We are very satisfied.” - COO of professional services company.
