Whether you are starting, operating, acquiring or selling a business, you
should be focused on the business, not on the unfamiliar territories of
legal, tax and valuation issues. When facing unfamiliar circumstances
it is crucial to have an existing relationship with an attorney who knows
you and your business. Click on the below to learn more about our
services. |

Failure to plan your business' start-up, growth,
transition, real estate and estate planning matters can be disastrous. Fixing an
unanticipated problem can cost an unbearable amount of time and
significant money. Why not consult with a professional business
consultant before jumping in head first? You
know your business, we know how to structure your start-up, growth,
transition or succession strategies so they will meet or exceed your
goals.
A
good strategy can lead to a successful business, minimize tax
implications, reduce liability exposure and improve the value of your
business to potential purchasers. Formulating a solid strategy
before you act makes you money in the long term.

which minimize liabilities and maximize growth and profits.

Business Formation
Forming a business is more than filling out a few forms with the Secretary of State. Choice of
entity, and the proper documentation is essential
to the success of any business. Well constructed shareholders’ agreements are
often critical to the long term success of a business as well as the continued
positive relationship of its owners.

General Business Representation
Every business must establish a relationship and regular contact with an experienced
attorney. All businesses must be able to rely upon its counsel for legal advice
at a moment’s notice. Early and continued consultation with your attorney can
avoid potential liability, result in properly documented transactions and keep
potential legal problems to a minimum. Annual maintenance of businesses is also
an important part of a business’s continued success.
|
Business Succession Planning
Experienced advice and consultation is a must for all small and mid-sized business owners.
When considering buying, selling or merging a business, or passing it to the
next generation of family members, early formation of an exit or acquisition
strategy is directly linked to the success or failure of the goal.
|
Commercial Transactions
Whether a transaction involves the purchase or sale of a business, locating or relocating to a new site or the
acquisition of a major asset, planning the structure of the transaction is as
important as negotiating and funding the transaction itself. With experienced
counsel and thorough pre-transaction planning, tax and legal implications can be
minimized.
Reorganizations, Mergers & Acquisitions.
|
Mergers, stock swaps and other reorganizations are riddled with traps for
those not properly advised. With professional planning and structuring,
many reorganizations can occur without taxation or
with deferred taxation. Good planning can avoid hidden liabilities and future
headaches, but most of all proper planning can maximize the bottom line.
