Meet Zara

I’m a dual-qualified US and UK attorney with over 25 years of experience advising a wide range of technology-driven businesses from major institutions (like Lehman Brothers, JP Morgan, Disney and eBay) to early-stage startups and newly public companies (like Bill.com and Financial Engines).
I thrive in fast paced, high growth environments and am passionate about providing pragmatic legal solutions to business problems.
I have built and scaled every aspect of a company’s legal function including commercial, product, privacy/AI/cybersecurity, marketing, employee/customer disputes and government relations as well as playing a key role in Bill.com IPO readiness.
I founded Reader Law to directly serve founders and leadership teams as a trusted legal advisor and business strategist.
I bring GC level partnership without the cost, commitment or complexity of a full time hire. I have a rare combination of deep operational experience, strategic focus and an approachable, collaborative style that helps clients move fast and build with confidence.
