CIPHERALAW

Hi, I'm Anya.

Former computer scientist. Attorney to Meta, Uber, and Toyota. I founded CipheraLaw because startups and growth-stage companies deserve a lawyer who can sit in the engineering standu, not just review the paperwork after the decisions are made.

Why founders and GCs work with me:

Speed I've done these deals before. No ramp-up time, no learning curve.

Zero Bureaucracy No committees, no associates billing to learn your business. Just me, directly.

Deep Tech Fluency I was writing code before I was writing contracts. I will understand your product because I could have built it.

Predictable Pricing Lean firm, no overhead, no surprise bills. You know what you're paying before you start.

My Philosophy

My commitment to clients is personal. I arrived in the U.S. in my twenties and my first jobs were cleaning houses, work that taught me humility and grit long before I set foot in a legal departments. That same drive carried me through a computer science degree, then law school, and into a career advising some of the most advanced technology companies in the world on their hardest problems: untangling IP and privacy gray areas, and executing high-velocity commercial deals.

I bring that same lack of entitlement and technical fluency to every engagement. I don't just build legal guardrails, I partner with teams to build practical solutions that let them move fast and win. Looking forward to collaborating with you!
