Business Law
In the eyes of the law, your business is not legal until the paperwork is done. An improperly formed business and missing or poorly formed contracts can expose the owners and investors to legal, tax and administrative liability. Personal liability. My business law practice helps you avoid this.
A business with clearly set out goals and operating documents such as by-laws and shareholder agreements runs more efficiently and with less uncertainty because all parties know their roles and duties.
Much like a well-written business plan that maps out the daily details and long-range planning of operating your business, likewise by-laws, shareholder agreements, employment contracts, all contribute to insuring that everyone knows what is expected. Think of your business’ legal plan as the oil that keeps the other parts of the machine moving smoothly.
Therefore, in my business law practice I use these ideas to help all sizes of businesses and high growth start-ups with their legal documentation.
Business law includes:
- Counseling as to type of business form
- By-laws, Operating Agreements, Shareholder Agreements, Joint Venture
- Formation and registration of business entity and registration of foreign business
- Business transactions such as commercial leases, purchase and sale contracts, supplier contracts
- Busines finance documents (notes, promissory notes, shareholder subscription agreements)
- Employment contracts, non-competition agreements
- Business succession, buy/sell agreements
- Franchise formation; franchise purchase
- Business governance (record-keeping, shareholder rights, etc.)
- Business buy/sell, merger, sale and disposition
- Dissolution and other termination issues
