GENERAL BUSINESS & CORPORATE

We work diligently to establish a thorough understanding of our clients’ business and objectives in order to more effectively represent them and to address the challenges and opportunities our clients routinely face associated with the formation, operation, and growth of their businesses.

Our clients include management groups, publicly traded and closely held businesses, private equity investors, and entrepreneurs across a broad range of sectors including real estate, restaurants, beauty, and entertainment. The comprehensive scope of our practice, coupled with our extensive experience, enable us to effectively tailor our representation to the needs of each client, offer solutions to complex and routine legal and business issues, and provide access to a network of resources.

Some of our attorneys are former general counsels and senior executive officers of companies within various industries, further affording us the opportunity to offer our clients practical, cost-effective, and innovative solutions.

Our attorneys routinely represent clients, both of established businesses as well as those who desire to form and start businesses, on a wide variety of strategic and day-to-day issues including choice of entity, formation and maintenance of corporations, partnerships and limited liability companies, shareholder agreements, stock purchase and investment agreements, business plans, and general operating agreements of all types. We also have extensive experience in negotiating and drafting distribution agreements, licensing agreements, sale of goods agreements with third party vendors, sales representative agreements, and third party manufacturer agreements.

Our attorneys routinely represent clients who want to buy or sell a company or its assets. We counsel buyers and sellers in the decision as to whether to participate in an asset or entity transaction and then participate in all stages of the process from negotiating, structuring and drafting all documentation (including purchase and sale agreements, bills of sale, general assignments, loan documents and consulting agreements), through conducting comprehensive due diligence and closing the transaction.
