Business Law

We have decades of experience helping clients with their business needs, from initial organization and formation, to operational, employment, and contract matters. We believe business law shouldn’t be practiced in a vacuum. Rather, our advice needs to work with your business needs, and our job is to find creative solutions to help you succeed rather than forcing you to fit into archaic requirements.

We take pride in providing creative and tax efficient solutions for financing, mergers, acquisitions, succession planning, and exit strategies. We understand business, and can help foresee problems, plan ahead to minimize risk, and assist to protect you and reduce costs.

Our clients range from local sole proprietors to multinational enterprises, to publicly traded companies. As a transactional business law firm, we deal with many areas inherent to running a business. Because the needs of clients vary greatly, our abilities are likewise very broad:

  • We deal with formation and “housekeeping” requirements of many different types of entities and business structures, helping our clients choose not only what entity is best, but whether they need one in the first place by considering liability issues, tax concerns, and the practical functioning of the business. We form entities and handle state filings. We draft shareholder, buy-sell, operating, and partnership agreements.

  • Our clients depend on us to review and draft contracts after a business has been created to better ensure they meet legal requirements, follow sound business strategies, and are fair and equitable. These contracts include client and customer agreements, service contracts, non-disclosure contracts, leases, joint ventures, partnerships, licenses, and reseller arrangements.

  • We assist our clients with their day-to-day employment matters, from advising on HR issues and labor laws, to assisting with hirings and terminations, to drafting employment and independent contractor agreements, to reviewing and writing policies and handbooks.

  • As businesses grow and change, we help our clients with negotiations and due diligence, mergers and acquisitions, purchases and sales of assets and equity, and creative solutions for growth and succession planning.

Finding an attorney that understands your needs and thinks outside the box can make the difference between success and failure. We are known for achieving results.
