Business Law

Starting and growing your new business can be extremely rewarding, however it also comes with significant legal responsibilities, expense, and potential liabilities. Our attorneys can assist you with strategic planning and how to structure your business and contracts so that you can have minimal legal issues in the long term, and save money for the future. Having experienced lawyers on your side, who understand your business needs, can make a world of difference to the long-term success of your business. We would be pleased to serve as general counsel to your business or to assist you on a case-by-case basis as the need arises.

  • Employment Agreements, Confidentiality Agreements, Non-Disclosure Agreements (NDAs), and Distribution Agreements
