Jesse Allan Okiror
Iacuone McAllister Potter PLLC
I am a skilled trial lawyer and trusted legal advisor with a focus on representing entrepreneurs, business leaders, and startups. My dual backgrounds as a lawyer and startup founder give me a unique understanding of the challenges and legal obstacles that come with growing a business. Having embarked on the entrepreneurial journey myself, I am a fierce advocate for those dedicated to creating value for customers, investors, and the world. I offer zealous representation in active litigation and insightful counsel on legal questions that impact growth, matching my clients' entrepreneurial spirit, innovative thinking, results-driven mindset, and optimism.
As a trial lawyer, I handle high-stakes disputes where my clients' businesses, reputations, and livelihoods are threatened by competitors, former partners, or other malicious entities. With extensive experience in prestigious litigation firms and a strong track record in trials, I am well-prepared to manage cases involving partnership break-ups, business divorces, contract disputes, breaches of fiduciary duty, and other complex legal issues such as hostile takeovers, shareholder oppression, and fraud.
As a legal advisor and counselor, I am the first point of contact for my clients for any legal issue, available day or night, during the week or on weekends. My experience as the founder of a tech startup and General Counsel to another tech startup has equipped me to quickly assess legal challenges and advise on the best course of action, whether that involves initiating litigation or finding a creative solution to swiftly resolve issues and focus on business.
In my personal time, I enjoy preparing delicious and nourishing meals for my wife, Vyna, and our two children. On weekends, I cherish spending quality time with my family, nurturing the same values of dedication and optimism that I bring to my professional life.
