William Milne serves as Legal Counsel at Bull Harttraft LLP, where he focuses on corporate transactions, entity formation, and regulatory compliance for companies operating at the intersection of traditional finance and digital assets. His practice centers on helping founders and operators build legally sound corporate structures that accommodate the unique requirements of blockchain-based businesses, from multi-entity architectures to token treasury management.
William advises clients across the full range of corporate lifecycle events, including formation and organizational matters, equity and token financings, commercial agreements, and governance design. He has particular experience with the entity structuring challenges that arise in decentralized projects, where traditional corporate frameworks must be adapted to fit novel organizational models. His work frequently involves coordinating across multiple jurisdictions to establish structures that satisfy both U.S. regulatory requirements and the operational realities of global blockchain networks.
In addition to his transactional work, William maintains an active regulatory compliance practice, helping clients develop and implement compliance programs tailored to the evolving requirements of federal and state regulators. He works closely with the firm's securities and litigation teams to ensure that corporate structures and compliance frameworks are built to withstand scrutiny, providing clients with a unified approach to legal risk management.
