Business Law Services

​Navigating the complexities of business law is essential to the success and longevity of any enterprise, whether you're a small local business or a growing company with broader ambitions. As a former business executive with business school training, I bring a wealth of experience in law, business, and strategic operations to help my clients tackle an array of business-related legal matters. With a deep understanding of both the legal and practical challenges businesses face, I provide tailored, results-oriented legal solutions designed to meet your specific needs.

​

Comprehensive Business Legal Services

 

​From startup to sale, I offer comprehensive legal counsel throughout the lifecycle of your business. Whether you're starting out or managing a well-known company, I can help with a variety of business law matters, making sure your legal needs are met with precision and knowledge.

​​​

Business Entity Formation


Choosing the right business structure is a critical step in creating your company. I help clients select and form the most appropriate entity—whether a limited liability company (LLC), corporation, or partnership—based on their business goals and long-term goals. I also draft and file all necessary governance documents, such as articles of incorporation and operating agreements, making sure your business is built on a solid legal foundation.

​

Contract Drafting and Review

​​​

Contracts are the backbone of any business. I bring a detail-oriented approach to drafting, reviewing, and negotiating contracts. Whether you're dealing with vendor agreements, employment contracts, or complex commercial transactions, I make sure your interests are protected, and potential risks are mitigated. My goal is to provide clear, concise, and enforceable contracts that serve your business's best interests.

 

Business Transactions


I offer strategic legal support for a wide range of business transactions, including mergers, acquisitions, and sales. My experience in leading significant business ventures, combined with my legal skills, lets me guide clients through complex transactions with confidence. From due diligence and negotiation to finalizing agreements, I provide comprehensive support to ensure a smooth and successful transaction.

​

Business Succession Planning


Planning is important for the continuity of any business, especially in family-owned or closely-held companies. I work with business owners to develop succession plans that address ownership transitions, management changes, and potential tax implications. By crafting tailored agreements and integrating personal estate planning strategies, I help make sure your business thrives for generations to come.

​

Contract Dispute Resolution


Disputes are an inevitable part of doing business, but they need not be disruptive. I provide skilled representation in contract disputes, striving to resolve issues through negotiation, mediation, or, when necessary, litigation. My approach is to reduce conflict and achieve favorable outcomes efficiently, letting you focus on what matters most—running your business.

​

General Counsel Services


For businesses seeking ongoing legal support, I offer general counsel services, acting as a trusted advisor on a wide range of legal matters. Whether it's regulatory compliance, employment law, or intellectual property issues, I provide the guidance you need to navigate legal challenges and keep your business on track.
