Hello Marvin, I'm actually form London but I saw this post and thought I might help. I run a client services company and we recently had to negotiate a contract with an american client who didn't quite understand the open source things. We dealt with the firm Sheppard Mullin Richter & Hampton llp and our lawyer was excellent. I'd be happy to forward her details if that would be useful to you (contact me off list if you'd like) :)
