Whether you are a new business owner or are operating an established business, we can provide the legal help you need. We can assist with:

• Business formation and entity selection – We can ensure that your business is structured in a way that provides owners, partners, or shareholders with protection from liability while addressing how taxes will apply to the business’s profits and losses.
• Contract review, drafting, and negotiation – We can review your company’s existing contracts, and we can help you draft and negotiate new contracts, including partnership agreements, vendor contracts, franchise agreements, or employment contracts.
• Commercial litigation – If your company is involved in a legal dispute, we can help you negotiate a settlement or provide you with representation when litigating these matters in the courtroom.
• Breach of contract – If another party has violated the terms of a business contract, or if you have been accused of breaching a contract, we can provide you with representation and help you resolve these disputes.
• Disputes between shareholders and partners – We can assist in resolving internal disputes through arbitration, mediation, or litigation, or we can assist in completing a “business divorce” in which an owner or partner leaves a company.
• Buying or selling a business – We can make sure the right procedures are followed when buying a business through a stock purchase or asset purchase or when selling business interests to a new owner.
• Mergers and acquisitions – We can help perform due diligence, establish corporate governance, and address other legal issues when two companies are merging or one company is acquiring another.
• Business succession planning – We work with business owners who are planning to retire or leave their company, helping them determine how to transfer ownership of business interests to family members or other stakeholders while keeping the business in operation.
• Tax planning – We help companies address multiple types of federal, state, and local taxes and create strategies that will minimize their tax burdens.
