Business and Corporate Transactions

Our goal is to help our business clients establish, grow and prosper.  We have a substantive understanding of complex legal matters that affect corporations, and we have the practical knowledge of commercial and financial affairs to craft solutions to meet our clients’ critical problems and business challenges.

We are client-relationship focused, and we offer legal advice and counsel so that our clients can dedicate their skills and energy to growing their company.  We emphasize responsive and cost-effective service to meet the needs of our clients, be they start-ups, established businesses, banks, or professional practice groups.

We have specialized experience helping non-profit organizations to incorporate and obtain tax-exempt status.  In an effort to contain costs, we are happy to explore ways to share this work with the client.  The goal is for clients to accomplish as much as possible on their own, using our guidance only when it is really needed.

Our lawyers work with our clients to identify potential problems and resolve them before they become a financial drain on resources.  It is our philosophy that identifying potential disputes and litigation early on is usually the most cost-effective way for a business to operate.  When disputes do arise, we help our clients resolve them as quickly and efficiently as possible.

We offer advice and counsel on a variety of complex transactional matters, including:

  • Dissolutions and liquidations
  • Contract drafting and negotiation
  • Incorporations
  • Business formation
  • Limited liability companies
  • Non-compete agreements
  • Leases
  • Strategic planning
  • Commercial transactions
  • Sales and acquisitions
  • Buy-sell agreements
  • Franchise agreement review
  • Shareholder disputes
  • Succession planning
