ambart law

we exist to serve AI and SaaS companies, Founders, and Creatives—building with llms, agents, and regulated data.

When the law changes, you shouldn't be the last to find out.
We watch it closely so you can plan around it. Our founder, Yelena Ambartsumian, is regularly quoted on AI governance, AI x privacy, and AI x intellectual property by leading media outlets, including:

discover our fractional general counsel program

Scaling a tech company? Your legal should move as fast as you ship.
(Yes, especially if you’re vibe coding.) Our fractional general counsel program embeds a dedicated legal team in your company—drafting and negotiating your contracts, counseling your product decisions, and keeping you ahead on privacy and AI governance—for one predictable monthly flat fee. No runaway hourly billing, no surprise invoices, no waiting a week for a redline. And because we price by stage—from seed through Series D—you only pay for the coverage you actually need.
