Real-World Strategic Counsel
Build · Own · Operate · Protect
Counsel from the builder’s side of the table.
Legal questions do not sit by themselves. They sit inside a business, a technology, a transaction, a structure of ownership. FDP Law advises on the legal structure and on the operating reality underneath it.
IP & Trade Secrets
Protect proprietary knowledge before the dispute begins. Trade secret programs, licensing and ownership, and when to register versus when to hold close.
AI & Emerging Technology
Deploy new technology without giving away the data, IP or control underneath it, from models and contracts down to the connected devices and infrastructure AI runs on.
Digital Assets, Bitcoin & Digital Credit
Treasury policy, governance and the agreements behind bitcoin, digital credit and other digital assets, structured before capital moves.
Transactions & Ongoing Counsel
Structure the deal so it still works after everyone signs it, then stay on as outside counsel for the decisions that follow.
Featured practice
Bitcoin Treasury & Digital Credit
Bitcoin is moving from an asset held on a balance sheet into the capital structure itself. FDP Law advises on the governance, policies, disclosures, agreements and decision processes underneath bitcoin treasury strategies and digital credit investments.
FDP Law does not provide investment advice or recommend any security.

Counsel From Someone Who Has Been the Client
Frank D. Prestia has built and run businesses for nearly 35 years. He co-founded the company behind WaxMelters and designed thermal systems now running at NASA Marshall Space Flight Center, Blue Origin and Lockheed Martin.
That changes the questions we ask. Not just what the law permits, but what protects the asset, what preserves leverage, and what the company can actually carry out.
FDP Law is generally retained where the value lies in judgment, structure and strategy, not routine legal process.
