Our firm practices in most of the key areas pertaining to business organizations. Many businesses need periodic sound legal counsel in dealing with ongoing issues related to operating a business organization. Whether issues arise in the formation and start-up or during the course of an existing business, our firm can assist you in effectively dealing with problems head-on, resulting in cost effective strategies and solutions.
We offer counsel in the following areas:
Different business structures are available depending on the type of business and the goals of the company. Whether it be a sole proprietorship, partnership, limited liability company, or corporation each business structure provides unique benefits based on the particular business.
Employment and organizational agreements govern the internal workings of the business. Failure of a business to have a well-written employment or organizational agreements, may lead to expensive litigation when issues arise. We work with clients to prevent such risks.
Depending on the type of business different licensing and regulatory protocols must be followed by properly submitting applications and information with the State.
Once a business opportunity arises, you’ll have to start thinking about financing the project. Our firm has experience in counseling clients on approaching banks or lenders to secure financing.
A merger or acquisition involves matters much more than legalities. Whether representing the buyer or seller, it is important to understand the client's business and objective to most effectively advise on issues, including tax implications, labor employment issues, intellectual property issues, indemnification, and implementing maximum synergy among the organizations.
When issues arise between shareholders it may be time for a business to dissolve. Businesses must follow state law and procedures for settling outstanding debts, collecting any money owed the company, selling assets, and tying up any other loose ends.
