Business Law Services
We work with multiple different types of businesses, including medical and health professionals, technology companies, manufacturers, and those in the service industry. We can help your business address a wide variety of legal matters, including:
Starting a Business and Corporate formation
When founding a new business, it is important to ensure that it is structured correctly to protect the owner or partners from personal liability and utilize the available tax advantages. We can assist in meeting the requirements to form a limited liability company (LLC), limited liability partnership (LLP), or corporation.
Contract Review, Preparation & Negotiation
The contractual agreements a business makes with vendors, suppliers, clients, or employees must contain the proper elements in order to be legally enforceable. We can assist in drafting and negotiating contracts with other parties, and we can review your existing contracts to identify any legal concerns that may need to be addressed and ensure that your business has the legal protection it needs.
Buying or Selling a Business
When acquiring, being acquired by, or merging with another company, your business will need to address a variety of concerns to ensure that the new company will be able to operate successfully. We can assist with due diligence, establishing corporate governance for the new company, addressing tax issues, and reviewing contracts that will be affected by a merger.
General Counsel Services
Many small businesses do not have the resources to keep an attorney on staff, or they may hire different lawyers as needed to address different types of legal issues. We can help you avoid this type of inefficiency by establishing a relationship with your business, helping you address your ongoing concerns, and working to manage risks and build successful business strategies.
Franchise Law
Businesses offering franchising opportunities to other businesses will need to meet a variety of legal requirements, and companies that plan to operate as franchisees should be sure they have the necessary legal protections in place. We work with franchisors and franchisees to review franchise disclosure documents and negotiate franchise agreements.
