Providing clients with general business, corporate and real estate law counseling has been a substantial part of my legal work since I entered the law practice over fifteen years ago

A business owner often needs to strike a delicate balance between increasing their bottom line and appropriately securing their assets from undue risk.  We’ll work together to navigate through the legal issues so that you will make the most advantageous decisions for the long term health of your business.

How I Can Help

 As a previous co-owner of a technology oriented Start-up Company, I experienced first-hand both the excitement and anxieties that business owners feel when starting a new business venture.   It is, without question, a process that has many legal uncertainties.  My goal is to help you resolve these uncertainties so that you can devote time to what you do best – managing and growing your business.   

We represent many businesses in a variety of different industries, from family farming and agricultural enterprises to state-wide transportation and retail organizations. We also represent many professional service oriented businesses, including medical groups and corporations, real estate corporations and engineering firms (and, yes, even other law partnerships and professional law corporations). Though we tailor the legal work to best accommodate the industry, there are two common objectives among all business owners – the first is to be profitable and the second is to have their business ownership and assets legally protected. 

From formation stage to implementing an exit strategy for an established business, I am here to help counsel you at every step along the way.
