Business Law

 

Forming a new business is exciting, but there are a number of forms to file and requirements you must meet. If you fail to get the right paperwork done or do not fully understand these requirements, your business may not be properly licensed to operate or may face stiff fines. Whether you are in the planning phase, looking to expand or diversify, or looking to sell and wind down your business, we can ensure you do everything by the book.

 

Business Formation and Organization Documents

Forming a business requires filing with your state, the IRS, and other entities. It also requires creating agreements between the founders, laying out how the business will operate, and much more. Many of these are legally binding documents. We will help you translate your vision of your company into print so that your new business can operate as you want while also enjoying the legal protections it needs.

Contracts and Business Negotiations

Before signing an employment contract, a partnership agreement, or any other legal contract, you want to make certain you fully understand what the contract does legally. The experts at Romaine & Nugent will carefully review any contracts or agreements brought to you, plus we can assist you in drafting these documents and during the negotiation phase. 

We offer an initial consultation to assess your particular situation and guide you through your options in order to make the best possible choices.
