“Complex matters become manageable when the facts, documents, deadlines, and practical objective are brought into one clear strategy.”
A distinctive background
Before law school, Mr. Rashtanov worked as an astronaut instructor at Johnson Space Center, training astronauts, cosmonauts, and flight controllers on International Space Station systems and emergency response.
