As a business owner, it can be challenging at times to be an expert in many different areas. By having legal counsel who can function as your “in-house counsel”, you can free up your time to run your business. When you know you have proper advice and expertise, you can keep your business running smoothly and efficiently. Liberate your business and give yourself the freedom to do what you do best!

My services include:

Advising clients involved in the purchase or sale of an ongoing business

Establishing the proper business structure--sole proprietorship, limited liability company, for-profit corporation or non-profit corporation

Drafting a buy-sell agreement and other shareholder or partnership agreements, where appropriate, when you form a business with others

Drafting standard contracts so communications with customers and vendors are clearly understood by all parties

Reviewing leases for office, retail or industrial space

Drafting employment contracts, non-compete and confidentiality agreements

Remember this basic premise: Anything that is important to your business should involve a written agreement. Oral contracts are difficult, if not impossible, to prove or enforce.
