Our Business and Commercial Law Practice
We handle a wide range of legal issues for start-ups and existing businesses, including:
- Business start-ups and formation. We work closely with businesses and business owners to handle all matters involved in the start up phase of a commercial enterprise. We will work with you to determine the most appropriate business entity to meet your needs, helping you understand the tax and liability consequences of the different structures, such as partnerships, limited liability companies (LLCs) and corporations.
We will also prepare and file all necessary documentation to establish your business in compliance with state business laws, including articles of incorporation or organization, operating agreements and by-laws.
In many circumstances, once we have completed the start-up process, we will continue to serve as corporate counsel, handling all filings, maintaining all corporate records, and advising clients on day-to-day matters.
- Business transactions. We will negotiate, review and prepare business and commercial contracts, including vendor and customer agreements, licensing contracts, employment agreements, and confidentiality and non-compete agreements.
- Business litigation. We handle disputes between businesses, including breach of contract or unfair competition. We also represent businesses in dealings with regulatory agencies.
- Business dissolution. We handle the winding up of your business, from corporations and LLCs to partnerships, handling all documentation and legal tasks associated with business dissolution.
