We Fight For You

The following are some examples of the services that we provide to our clients:

• General counsel. The most important value that we provide is a strategy and a detailed, simplified explanation of various solutions with respect to business issues. We provide our clients with a plan that integrates business efficiencies and procedures along with contracts to protect and grow businesses. In addition, we write, review, revise, and negotiate business contracts to protect businesses. 

Some examples of the types of business deal and  transactions for which we counsel our clients to include:

• (M&A) Purchase and sale of businesses. If you’re buying or selling a business, we can help. Our law firm has big-law firm experience with stock and asset purchases, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), and tax-free reorganizations.

• Business financing. When businesses need financing, there are several lengthy documents that should be reviewed and discussed with experienced counsel. Specifically, there are myriad clauses in the documents that memorialize business loans, equipment leases, and lines of credit. Additionally, if a business seeks an investment from VCs, Angels, or high net-worth investors, entrepreneurs and business owners can easily lose control of their business if they do not understand the nuances of the documents that are required for those types of financing deals.

• Business contracts. When operating a business, it is inevitable that it will be asked to sign a contract or provide a contract to enter into a business contract. Those in-the-ordinary courses of business contracts include contracts with suppliers, distributors, manufacturers, various independent contractors, technology support providers, licensing of intellectual property (IP), including software, trademarks, and patents. 

Our firm also assists businesses with having contracts in place with their employees, including contracts for incentivizing them to continue their employment (such as with stock options or phantom equity) and mitigating employees’ ability to threaten their employers’ legitimate business interests after employees resign. 

Our firm can assist you with the complexities that arise from those contracts to protect businesses against onerous clauses that may increase their business risk and threaten their livelihood of the business.

• Succession planning. Our firm can also assist business owners and partners to prepare a plan to protect their business and their rights in the event of their untimely death or incapacity or in the event of an unforeseen, future dispute among the owners.

• Business formation. Our firm also assists with forming various business entities, including LLCs, partnerships, and corporations. We also assist our clients with maintaining the requisite documents to comply with the requirements that are necessary to protect business owners from personal liability that may arise even though they operate their business in the form of a business entity.
