Vendor SaaS agreements, enterprise software contracts, data processing addendums, SLA enforcement. I flag auto-renewals, unlimited liability, IP assignment traps, data lock-in, and termination gotchas before you sign.
Not sure? Email me the SaaS agreement and I will recommend the right tier.
Rush turnaround: Rush 24-48 hour turnaround may be available for an added fee. Email the agreement first; I will confirm rush feasibility before you pay.
These are anonymized examples from recent client work. Every review is done by me personally, not by AI and not by a paralegal.
Flagged 7 high-risk clauses including uncapped indemnification, unilateral price increases, and 90-day auto-renewal buried in definitions. Negotiated liability cap and 60-day exit notice.
Identified data portability gaps and SLA credit calculation issues. DPA lacked breach notification timelines and data deletion commitments. Got vendor to add data export guarantees.
Found IP assignment clause that gave vendor perpetual rights to customer data insights and analytics. Removed it before signing and added data ownership carve-out.
Flagged CCPA/GDPR compliance gaps in DPA. No breach notification requirements, vague subprocessor disclosure, and no data deletion timeline. Got vendor to add breach notification and deletion commitments.
Every SaaS agreement is different, but these are the areas where I consistently find risk that clients did not expect.
Email the agreement as PDF, Word, or even a photo. Tell me your concerns and what you are trying to accomplish with this vendor.
I reply with the recommended tier, the flat fee, and the turnaround time. No work starts until you approve.
You get a marked-up copy with risks highlighted, replacement language where needed, and a plain-English explanation of what matters for SaaS contracts.
I explain what to push back on and how. If you need the clauses rewritten for vendor negotiation, I handle that in the Create or Redline tier with up to three rounds of email-based revisions.
Send me the agreement. I will confirm the right tier, the fee, and what I need from you.

"Sergei reviewed a complex enterprise SaaS agreement and caught several issues I would have missed. He flagged the auto-renewal clause hidden in the definitions, identified unlimited liability exposure, and provided redlines for the DPA that brought it into GDPR compliance. Worth every penny."
"I needed a quick turnaround on a SaaS contract before our board meeting. Sergei delivered a full review in 48 hours with clear negotiation guidance. He identified data portability gaps and SLA credit calculation issues we would have never caught. Highly recommend."
"Fast, thorough, and practical. Sergei identified an IP assignment clause that would have given the vendor rights to our customer data. He provided replacement language we sent back to the vendor, and they accepted it without pushback. Great experience."
Written Email Evaluation ($125): I read the SaaS agreement (up to 30 pages), identify the highest-risk clauses, and send a written attorney evaluation with plain-English risk summary and CCPA/CPRA, DPA, and SLA issues flagged. Two business day turnaround. No redrafting at this tier. Create or Redline Existing Contract ($575): I review every clause across the MSA, DPA, SLA, ToS, and Privacy Policy as applicable, flag all risks, check CCPA/CPRA and data processing compliance, and deliver redlined edits plus a clean recommended version. Includes up to three rounds of email-based revisions. Unusual scope (multi-document SaaS stacks with MSA + DPA + SLA + ToS + Privacy Policy together, extended vendor negotiation, multi-jurisdictional analysis) is billed at $240 per hour.
Yes. I review vendor SaaS agreements, enterprise software contracts, MSAs, data processing addendums (DPAs), service level agreements (SLAs), Terms of Service, Privacy Policies, security exhibits, and custom platform deals. If it is a subscription software agreement, I can review it.
I flag auto-renewal traps, unlimited liability exposure, indemnification caps and carve-outs, IP ownership and assignment clauses that give vendors rights to customer data or derived insights, data lock-in and portability gaps, SLA uptime calculation and credit enforceability, termination penalties and data return obligations, overbroad audit rights, and DPA gaps under CCPA/CPRA and GDPR including breach notification, subprocessor disclosure, and deletion timelines.
Yes. The $575 Create or Redline tier includes redlined replacement language you can send directly to the vendor or vendor counsel, plus negotiation guidance explaining which points are worth pushing on for SaaS deals. Up to three rounds of email-based revisions are included at the flat fee. If you need me to engage directly with the vendor's attorney by email, that can be arranged at $240 per hour.
Written Email Evaluation: 2 business days from receipt. Create or Redline Existing Contract: usually 3-5 business days from receipt of the agreement and any context, depending on length and complexity. Rush 24-48 hour turnaround may be available for an added fee on either tier. Email the agreement first and I will confirm rush feasibility before you pay. If a complex matter genuinely needs more time, I will tell you up front.
Yes. I review DPAs for CCPA/CPRA and GDPR compliance, breach notification timelines, data deletion and return commitments, subprocessor disclosure and flow-down obligations, security controls, and international data transfer mechanisms. DPA-only reviews fit the $125 written email evaluation; full SaaS contract stacks with DPA plus MSA and SLA fit the $575 Create or Redline tier.
