Compliance Shouldn't Slow Your Launch

Most health tech founders piece together compliance across 2–3 attorneys in different countries. It's slow, expensive, and creates gaps that put your product—and your patients—at risk.

⚠️

Fragmented Advice

Your US attorney doesn't know GDPR. Your EU counsel has never seen a BAA. You're left stitching together conflicting guidance across time zones.

🌎

Missed Jurisdiction Requirements

Expanding to India? UAE? Each market has distinct data protection rules. One missed requirement can block your entire rollout or trigger enforcement.

Delayed Launches

Coordinating between multiple law firms adds weeks to every milestone. Your compliance timeline shouldn't be the bottleneck to your product roadmap.

Your Compliance Counsel, Not a Call Center

Ankita (Ann) Srivastava — Founder, Gavel Speaks Inc.

Ankita (Ann) Srivastava

Founder & Principal Attorney, Gavel Speaks Inc.

I'm a third-generation lawyer who built Gavel Speaks to solve a problem I kept seeing: health tech companies forced to juggle multiple attorneys across multiple countries just to get compliant. I bring every jurisdiction under one roof.

With an LL.M. from Harvard Law School, an MBA in International Business, and a J.D. from the University of Delhi, I've spent 9+ years advising startups, SaaS platforms, and healthcare companies across the US, India, UAE, EU, and UK. My clients have ranged from AI-powered speech therapy platforms to global medical concierge companies to FemTech startups in the Netherlands.

As a Top Rated Plus freelancer on Upwork (top 3%, 100% Job Success Score) and an invited guest speaker at the University of Texas at San Antonio, I bring both deep expertise and the founder-to-founder perspective that health tech companies need when navigating complex cross-border compliance.

I had the pleasure of working closely with Ankita while she provided legal support for a venture-backed company, and her performance was consistently outstanding. She is exceptionally responsive and has a strong command of contracting and legal matters, always translating complex legal considerations into practical business solutions. As the company expanded into multiple countries, Ankita quickly acclimated herself to new jurisdictions and regulatory environments, ensuring the business continued to move forward efficiently and compliantly.

Ankita was genuinely interested and really listened to my situation. This is only a start to how she will be able to help me and my corporation. Very informative, extremely kind and helpful and more importantly, values people relation than the money bounded relation.

Before You Reach Out

No. That's the entire point of Gavel Speaks. I handle HIPAA, GDPR, India DPDP, UAE PDPL, and other frameworks under one engagement. You get a unified compliance strategy instead of stitching together advice from three different firms.

We'll discuss your product, your target markets, your current compliance state, and your timeline. I'll outline what frameworks apply, flag any gaps, and give you a clear picture of what's needed — no strings attached.

Most clients receive their compliance roadmap within one week of the initial call. Full documentation — BAAs, privacy policies, DPAs, terms — typically takes 2–4 weeks depending on the number of jurisdictions and complexity. I work on your launch timeline, not mine.

Absolutely. Many clients start with a single market — often HIPAA for a US launch — and expand later. I'll scope the engagement to exactly what you need right now.

Both. I've built compliance architectures for pre-launch startups as well as established health tech companies expanding into new markets. Early-stage companies benefit the most because getting compliance right from the start is far cheaper than fixing it later.

I offer fixed-fee project engagements and monthly retainers — no hourly billing surprises. You'll know the exact cost before we start. Pricing varies by scope, so let's discuss your specific needs on the free call.

Your product shouldn't wait on compliance. Let's fix that.
