Owning a business involves many issues, from the initial formation of the business, through problems that arise day-to-day, to termination of the business.  Should you form a partnership, a limited liability company (LLC), or a corporation? Or just a simple non- structured business? ........... Knowledgeable legal advice will help you decide the best structure for your business.

          Sometimes form contracts do not fit the particular situation facing a business owner, especially when the form contract has been devised by someone who lives and works in another state. A contract written specifically for you with your best interests in mind is very valuable.

          Businesses such as construction companies may have contract problems with sub-contractors. Liens may be involved. Legal advice is necessary to ensure your business is protected.

          Businesses who hire employees face many issues. If your business is specialized, perhaps you need a non-competition agreement with your employees. If you hire independent contractors or if you are an independent contractor, you need a contract to protect your interests.

          Our business cases are handled by attorney Joan McPherson, who has an undergraduate degree in Business Administration and has been practicing law since 1984. She has handled many business cases.
