What the practice covers

From formation to dispute.

Structure & ownership

Establishing a company, changing its ownership, or bringing a business to a close requires decisions about both the entity and the people behind it.

  • LLCs, corporations, professional corporations, and nonprofit entities
  • Governance documents, bylaws, resolutions, and ownership arrangements
  • Business acquisitions, mergers, restructuring, and dissolution

Agreements & commercial relationships

Drafting, reviewing, negotiating, and enforcing the contracts used to run a business and carry out a transaction.

  • Vendor, supplier, investor, partner, and employment agreements
  • Purchase agreements, confidentiality agreements, and licensing
  • Trademark and copyright registration, assignments, and related disputes

Regulated business & growth

Counsel for business activity that brings additional disclosure, contracting, employment, or compliance obligations.

  • Franchise agreements, disclosure documents, compliance, renewals, and disputes
  • Government bids, proposals, contract performance, and compliance
  • Employer policies, handbooks, workplace agreements, and employment disputes

Business disputes

Commercial conflicts often involve more than the immediate claim. The underlying agreement, ownership relationship, and continuing business all deserve attention.

  • Breach of contract and commercial litigation
  • Partner, ownership, and unfair competition disputes
  • Contract enforcement and disputes involving business assets
The first conversation

A useful starting point is the business objective, the documents already in place, and any pending deadline.

The business

The documents

Have the relevant agreement, draft, governing documents, or correspondence available for an authorized review.

The decision

Explain the transaction or dispute, the result you are seeking, and any scheduled signing, response, or hearing date.
