Business Law Planning

Operating a business in today’s world is filled with regulations and restrictions. It is hard for any business owner to sort through the dearth of requirements while at the same time doing what needs to be done — running the business. Having a lawyer available for general business questions can make the business more profitable and reduce the likelihood of contention with partners, employees, shareholders, or regulators. Smart business planning with corporations, limited liability corporations, partnerships, and other tools can save headaches down the road but only if you plan now.

Buying and selling commercial land and businesses is a virtual minefield of legalities. With so much riding on the thoroughness and accuracy of binding legal documents, do not sell yourself short.

From rental properties to commercial developments, from joint ventures to mergers, and from vacant land to zoning issues, having the right attorney can save years of dispute and smooth the negotiating and execution process. For the seasoned businessman or the one-time entrepreneur, good legal counsel will outweigh the damage caused by improperly drafted forms. I refer my clients to attorneys who have multi-million dollar transactional experience.
