Understanding what kinds of contracts and waivers are necessary
Ensuring favorable terms during a merger or acquisition
Resolving employee and business issues, such as workplace discrimination complaints
Creating best practices for addressing employee concerns

Business Formation

Your business structure impacts your enterprise’s tax liability and the number of shareholders you may have. The most common business structure for a very small business is an LLC or limited partnership, but if you plan to grow, you may need to form an S-corp or C-corp.

Purchase and Sale of Business

Choosing to sell your business or your share of a business without legal advice is risky. An attorney will help you achieve favorable terms whether you’re selling your small business, you want to acquire a competitor, or you’re ready to buy out a business partner.

Compliance with Business Law

Reduce the chances of running afoul of the law by seeking legal counsel from a small business lawyer in New York familiar with all operating and legal regulations, from food and beverage licenses to operations permits and employment laws. Our legal team reviews your operational structure and makes recommendations to ensure you’re compliant with the ever-evolving New York business laws.

Employee Manuals and Policy Development

The right employee manuals and policies can prevent legal issues arising from an employee dispute or accusations of sexual harassment or discrimination. We draft proper policies for employees to seek grievance redress and create employee manuals compliant with employer obligations in New York.

Business Contracts: Review, Drafting, and Negotiation

Legally solid contracts with favorable terms protect your business in the event of any partner or vendor dispute. We draft contracts to protect your interests and review all contracts or business agreements presented to you to ensure that your assets and business interests are protected. Small business attorneys negotiate on your behalf for the most favorable contract terms.

Outside General Counsel

Outside general legal counsel may help small businesses address the legal obstacles they face while growing. We provide outside counsel services with scrupulous avoidance of conflict of interest. As your legal representative, we look at the big legal picture and advise you as needed.

Trademark Registration

Trademark and copyright laws can be complex. We file your trademark application on behalf of your small business in New York, sending the right documents and protecting you from infringement issues. Lawyer For Business can register logos, commercial slogans, and even brands for your small business.
