Business and Corporate Law

Los Angeles Business Law

Contracts

Any business — whether it's a corporation, limited liability company, informal partnership or sole proprietorship — will necessitate a variety of contracts. Shareholder agreements, Buy-Sell Agreements, Employment Agreements, Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreements, Joint Venture Contracts, commercial leases: our practice can assist you in all of your business's contract drafting and negotiation needs.

Corporation, LLC & Partnership Formation

We can advise the best corporate entity choices to suit your business requirements. That choice will affect how business liability is construed, and how taxes are imposed. We have the expertise to tailor operating agreements, corporate bylaws, shareholder agreements, buy-sell agreements, and corporate minutes to best serve your business.

Professional Corporations

Professional corporations are corporations organized for the purpose of providing professional services. Professions that require a license, such as doctors, chiropractors, lawyers, accountants, architects, or engineers are generally required to form professional corporations rather than traditional corporations or LLCs. Our expertise will ensure that your professional practice has the optimum corporate structure.

Corporate and LLC Upkeep

Choosing the appropriate corporate entity is essential; corporate governance, corporate administration and following corporate compliance requirements are equally vital. We can advise and counsel you on the requisite steps and procedures so that the "corporate veil" or the protection the corporate entity provides is as strong as possible.

Employment & Severance Agreements

The ebb and flow of business brings new employees, and often the leave of others. We can provide narrowly-tailored employment agreements as well as severance agreements as your business necessities dictate.

Confidentiality & Non-Disclosure Agreements

Confidentiality Agreements, also known as Non-Disclosure Agreements, are used to protect information that is not generally known, and is not otherwise protected. Don't rely on verbal promises to keep this valued information confidential. We can draft and negotiate specific confidentiality and non-disclosure agreements that will help keep your information yours.
