As the co-founder and now CEO of InFront Compliance, Alia has merged her development experience, her legal acumen, and her network of connections to simplify compliance with a flexible, module-based software platform that helps companies connect to vendors to monitor compliance, cybersecurity professionals conduct assessments on clients, and allow any corporate to conduct due diligence on potential acquisition targets.

With all of this in mind, Alia’s law practice focuses on all manner of transactional representation for creatives, professionals, technologists and entrepreneurs, including legal advisory, corporate governance, agreement review and negotiation, acquisition of rights, and licensing transactions. Her deep knowledge of the publishing, legal, and technology industries has allowed her to serve clients of all sizes on transactional matters for the last twelve years of legal practice. She holds a BS in Economics, with highest honors, from the University of Central Florida, a JD, cum laude, from the University of Florida, an LLM in Taxation from New York University, and an MFA in Fiction from Fairleigh Dickinson University.
