Creating a startup or expanding a business without the advice of an Attorney could be one of the biggest mistakes you ever make. It is imperative that you have an Attorney representing your interests. JV LAW GROUP, LLP can help in many business scenarios, from the incorporation process, to drafting and negotiating contracts, employee handbooks, and employment agreements. Many will be tempted to look for templates and quick and easy solutions for business documents; however, you should retain an Attorney to assist you with legal business issues.
Each business is unique, and an initial consultation with an JV LAW GROUP can help you determine the complexity of your own needs and how to proceed with many of these issues.
-
- Creating contracts and non-disclosure agreements (NDA) – Customer contracts, partner or vendor agreements, and NDAs should be drafted or, at the very least, reviewed by an Attorney.
-
- Creating buy-sell agreements – If you are in a business partnership or an LLC with multiple owners, you’ll need a buy-sell agreement in place to protect you, in case a co-owner dies or wants to transfer ownership.
-
- Forming a corporation – Many often choose a Do It Yourself (DIY) approach to handle the formation of a business entity such as an LLC. You should consult with an Attorney to make sure all the proper documents are filed correctly. Also, forming a corporation with shareholders and a Board is a more complex process.
- Buying or Selling a Business – An Attorney can help with negotiating sales agreements, lease agreements, and more.
Many people who want to start a business assume that they cannot afford an Attorney to assist them. JV LAW GROUP understands those concerns and tailors its legal services to individuals and small to medium sized businesses. Please contact JV LAW GROUP for a free initial consultation.
