I concentrate my practice in all matters involving business and the environment. I represent businesses from their inception - and through the company’s growth.
Business Services
The process of starting up a new business begins long before the corporate documents are filed and the tax ID number is received. I understand this and can help you work through the process and answer your questions as you prepare your business to open its doors. I provide guidance on creating the business plan, selecting the right form of business entity to best meet your needs and putting into place the operational documents and contracts necessary to support a smooth running and successful company.
Once the doors have opened the new business still has legal needs. From reviewing vendor contracts to managing the customer who refuses to meet their obligations, I have the practical experience to help. This may involve informal negotiations or it may mean seeking the assistance of the court system and everything between. I have years of experience in alternative dispute resolution and litigation and the experience to put forth practical and efficient solutions to any problem.
Asset protection is another crucial aspect of running a business. Those assets are, at times, obvious and, at other times, not so obvious. They can include money and inventory, but can also include intellectual property, market knowledge, customers, and key employees. I can help you design and put into practice the appropriate policies and procedures to protect your assets, employee contracts, non-compete/ nondisclosure agreements and other documents that best meet your needs now and the future.
Running a business can be hard enough without having to navigate legal requirements and the Court system by yourself. I can help you meet your legal needs, plan to protect your business and fight for you if needed so you can concentrate on success.
