Business Transactions, Corporate Law and Employment Matters

Solid Foundation for Your Business

Too often businesses only seek legal guidance AFTER they have a problem or dispute.  We want to empower you to take control of any potential legal issues proactively - BEFORE problems or disputes manifest.


Whether you are interested in starting a business, already have a business or are thinking about an exit strategy and need to create a succession plan, every business needs a solid foundation.  To help you gauge what exact needs you may have, we start all corporate engagements with a Business Planning Session that reviews the status (and your comfort level) with various issues attendant to starting and, more importantly, maintaining a business on a solid foundation.  We then create a tangible action list that prioritizes any outstanding concerns. 


We also can help with employment matters for employers and employees - employment agreements, employee handbooks and policies, non-compete provision, severance agreements, and dispute resolution for other grievances.  


Whether you need to incorporate a legal entity, desire to create or strengthen your brand with intellectual property protections (i.e, trademarks/copyrights), need contracts for customers, vendors or employees or any of the other myriad of legal issues attendant to establishing or running a successful and legally protected business, we are a full service firm to meet the needs of your business.  


And if we don't handle a specific type of matter directly, we have a network of trusted attorneys to whom we can refer you to address everything from commercial litigation, bankruptcy and creditor rights, personal injury, and wage and hour and other employment litigation.

Outside Counsel Packages

As a business owner, you know you need legal guidance but can't afford to hire an in-house lawyer.  Nor do you want to pay exorbitant hourly fees.  We have a solution for you.  We partner with businesses as a trusted advisor to help you design, implement and maintain an effective plan for your business that balances legal, insurance, tax and financial strategies that can be clearly understood and executed through our Outside Counsel Packages.  We help entrepreneurs manage their legal needs so they can focus on what they do best - strengthening their brand and growing their business.


Each of our packages requires a one (1) year commitment.   These pacakages will be suited to your business needs.  The below will give you a sample of the type of issues that will be addressed.
