Troy Nehring is a senior corporate and transactional attorney with more than 20 years of experience advising privately held businesses across a range of industries and growth stages. Over the course of his career, he has represented founders, executives, and business owners in commercial transactions, governance matters, and strategic growth initiatives.

Earlier in his career, Troy operated his own practice for nearly a decade, working closely with entrepreneurs and growing companies. He was later recruited by a former client following its merger with Baker Tilly, a multinational professional services firm, where he served in a management role. In that capacity, he advised internal stakeholders on legal issues and supported consulting teams serving clients across diverse industries.

While the in-house experience provided valuable insight into operational decision-making and enterprise risk management, Troy ultimately returned to private practice to focus on advising emerging and growth-oriented businesses. After several years with Foundry Law Group, he founded Cruxterra to provide senior-level transactional counsel grounded in practical judgment and close client partnership.

Troy’s practice focuses on business transactions, commercial and technology contracts, corporate governance, and strategic advisory work. He regularly structures and negotiates licensing, services, vendor, and confidentiality agreements; advises on entity formation and governance; and supports purchase, sale, merger, joint venture, and other strategic transactions. His experience also includes real estate and leasing matters, as well as advising on employment and independent contractor arrangements.

Clients value Troy’s steady, business-aligned approach and his ability to translate complex legal issues into clear, practical guidance.

Outside of work, Troy and his wife, Sarah—a high school chemistry teacher—are raising their twins, Cooper and Emily. As a family, they enjoy exploring the outdoors throughout Washington. Troy also serves on the board of a local nonprofit organization and volunteers as a youth soccer coach. When time permits, he enjoys running and playing golf.

Troy earned his undergraduate degree from Whitman College and his law degree from the University of Colorado School of Law.
