Business Law

Thinking About the Whole Picture

It is important to think about your business as a whole, including the impact it has on other people and the community. I offer comprehensive guidance and advice on all aspects of starting a business, such as:

  • What it means to hire employees
  • Registering with the state for tax purposes
  • Business insurance needs
  • What happens when a part owner passes away (business succession)

Once those concerns are addressed, I can draft article of incorporation, bylaws, shareholder’s agreements, partnership agreements, employment agreements and any other documents that your company needs to begin operations.
