Starting and running your own business is one of the most exciting times in a person's life. Being your own boss and doing what you love is part of the American dream. There are many legal issues involved in setting up a business, including important decisions about what type of business entity to form.

Having owned and operated several successful small businesses, I am well qualified to walk you through all of your options for setting up a new business and let you know about the pros and cons of the different paths available to you. I will make sure that you have the information you need to make an informed decision.

I know that every business is different and I pride myself on the personalized service I provide to each client. I will help you put together a customized business plan designed to help you reach your goals and protect your interests.

I have helped clients in a variety of business matters, including:

• Small business purchase and sale transactions

• Business formation, including corporations, partnerships and LLCs

• Business planning and financing

• Collections

• Licensing and permits

• Commercial real estate matters

• Succession planning

• Unwinding the business

Contact my office today to discuss your small business transaction questions. I offer an initial 60-minute consultation for $150, a $75 savings over my standard hourly rate. At this meeting, you will receive the small business road map which I have developed, a format for a business plan which I have used to help businesses such as yourself, and an understanding of the issues before you so you can make the best decision possible.
