About Monica
I provide clear, commercially grounded contract reviews for creators and small brands, with particular experience in influencer and collaboration agreements.
My work focuses on translating complex legal clauses into plain, practical language, so clients understand exactly what they are signing and where the real risks lie. I prioritise material issues — including usage rights, exclusivity, termination, payment terms, and jurisdiction — rather than over-lawyering or academic analysis.
I have hands-on experience reviewing and supporting negotiations for creator and brand agreements across European and US contexts, including cross-border contracts. My approach is calm and client-safe, and particularly well suited to first-time creators, founders, and small teams who want clarity and reassurance before signing.
I am available for one-off contract reviews as well as short advisory engagements.
