About Mellisa Maxwell

Initium provides experienced corporate legal services for your small business, start-up, or nonprofit. Essentially, we offer your organization a β€œVirtual General Counsel”. Initium uses an innovative approach that disrupts the status quo through a nonprofit law firm model aimed to make business law services attainable to small businesses, startups, and nonprofits. Initium employs alternative fee structures, including a pay it forward approach where technology companies can pay it forward to off-set legal costs to startups. We think this promotes growth and innovation in the Boise community. Ms. Maxwell has spent her legal career as in-house counsel primarily focused on contract drafting and negotiation in the areas of technology, Intellectual Property, and Health law. She now volunteers her time to provide legal services in order to make competent legal services available for small businesses, start-ups and nonprofits. While technology and intellectual property are staples of our practice, we have experience as business lawyers across multiple industries from Healthcare to Retail. We like to say we cover A to Z throughout the state of Idaho; having had everything from Acupuncturists to Zoologists as clients. Whether it’s a contract dispute, contract law question, contract drafting need, contract review or template creation, initial formation and business creation filing, employment law concern, or general business issue, Initium offers you the comfort of having a GC without the in-house overhead. By thoughtfully controlling our overhead costs, we have the ability to take a flexible approach tailored to our clients. Reach out to see how our corporate law expertise can benefit your business law needs.
