General Business Representation

We understand the pressures and challenges that business owners face every day. As a result, we offer full-service legal representation in order to meet all of your needs. While we believe that seeking experienced legal counsel is a worthwhile investment in your business, we are also sensitive to the financial realities facing local businesses. We focus our representation on achieving practical solutions in a cost-effective manner.

Startup and Formation

We have extensive experience in working with the formation and startup of businesses. In this day and age of one-size-fits-all form documents that can be printed off of the internet, it’s important to recognize that personalized legal advice is an extremely valuable investment in your future success. Carefully formation and set up of your business can provide the framework and flexibility you need to allow for growth, meet future challenges, and avoid common pitfalls. We work with our clients to identify your objectives and then draft the necessary business and legal documents you need to succeed. And we want to be a stepping stool for your new business, not a stumbling block, so we carefully work within your budget.

Business Succession, Conversion, and Dissolution

While the day-to-day operation of your business may occupy the bulk of your time, business owners need to give careful consideration to the future. Who is going to take over when you want to retire? What happens if you want to wind down your business?

We work with businesses throughout their lifecycle. We can assist you in drafting a succession plan, converting to a different type of business entity, or developing an agreement for dissolving your business. We’ll make sure you understand your options, the benefits and disadvantages, and develop the legal documents necessary to meet your goals.

Employment Law

Businesses depend on their employees to make the business work, but employees can also present a number of complex challenges for their employers. Employment law can be complicated, and we can help you develop policies and procedures that help you manage your employees and protect your business from claims. We assist our clients with hiring and termination issues, as well as disciplinary, benefits, and compensation concerns.
