What We Handle

General Business

The day-to-day legal work of running a business, and the foundation of most ongoing counsel relationships.


General business work is the core of what we do. Most of it we handle directly: contracts, formation documents, governance, compliance questions, and disputes at the negotiation stage. For matters that escalate to litigation or require specialized expertise, we identify the right counsel and coordinate with them.

Business formation & structure

Getting the entity and governing documents right from the start prevents expensive problems later. We help you pick the right structure, draft the operating agreement or bylaws, and set up ownership and governance correctly, whether you're starting from scratch or restructuring an existing business.

  • LLC formation and operating agreements
  • Corporation formation and bylaws
  • Partnership agreements
  • Business restructuring and entity conversion
  • Multi-entity structuring for affiliated companies

Contracts & commercial agreements

We draft, review, and negotiate commercial contracts across all types of business relationships. We flag the issues that matter, translate what the legal language actually means in practice, and help you understand options and where you might reasonably push back.

  • Commercial contracts and service agreements
  • Vendor and supplier agreements
  • Non-disclosure and confidentiality agreements
  • Licensing and IP agreements
  • Letters of intent and term sheets

Corporate maintenance & governance

Ongoing legal work that keeps your business properly maintained and protected.

  • Corporate governance and records
  • Shareholder and member agreements
  • Board resolutions and meeting minutes
  • Regulatory compliance
  • Buy-sell agreements

Business disputes

Business disputes don't always follow a clear path. When something comes up, we help you assess the situation and think through your options, including when and how to involve litigation counsel, who we bring in early to help shape strategy.

  • Partner and shareholder disputes
  • Contract disputes and breach of contract
  • Demand letters and pre-litigation strategy
  • Negotiated settlements
  • Litigation coordination with trial counsel
