Business Structure & Incorporation
Choosing the right business structure affects everything from taxes to personal liability. We help you select and implement the structure that best fits your business goals, whether that’s a sole proprietorship, partnership, or corporation. Our services include preparing incorporation documents, organizing corporate records, and ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.
Franchising
Franchise businesses face unique legal challenges involving multiple areas of law. We assist with purchase and sale transactions, review franchise agreements and disclosure documents, and handle intellectual property matters. Whether you’re buying a franchise or developing a franchise system, we guide you through the complexities.
Business Agreements
Commercial agreements formalize your business arrangements. We assist in negotiation, drafting and implementation of financing agreements, shareholder agreements, loan and security agreements, leasing agreements, and employment agreements. Proper documentation protects your interests and prevents disputes.
Financing Your Business
