Business Law
“Before anything else, preparation is the key to success.” --Alexander Graham Bell
There are few things as exciting as launching a new business. Make sure all the possibilities for success are on your side.
I will guide you through every stage of business formation and operation. This includes deciding exactly which type of legal business entity fits your needs best: a sole proprietorship, C-corporation, or “pass-through” entity such as a partnership or limited liability company that have very distinct advantages and draw-backs to creation, operations, and the burden of taxation. You need to know these important differences.
Every corporation or limited liability company should have an Operating Agreement, a fundamental document needed to manage your business and insulate it from potential liability. If your operating agreement is not properly worded, your designated beneficiary may not inherit your voting rights. I can revise existing Operating Agreements or create one to suit your particular circumstances.
I have represented businesses for 30+ years. With a legal and economics background that includes advising Fortune 500 life insurance and financial services companies to helping homeless women achieving financial independence for the first time in their lives, I understand the challenges all my clients – big or small - face.
