Small Business Solutions

Small businesses need fast and effective answers to legal questions. They also need to control their legal costs.

Prevention

The best way to avoid a problem is to prevent a problem. Many small businesses do not seek legal help until there is a problem. We recommend a preventive approach.

The Process

Whether you are starting a business, or have been in operation for years, the first step is to review your business operations.

For new businesses, we ensure that you have met your legal and liability requirements. We can provide you with general legal advice on setting up a business and reviewing business plans. This service costs as little as $400 and often impresses banks and investors.

For established businesses, we ensure that your operations have evolved with the law. Over time, the law changes and what may have been correct 5 years ago may need urgent updating. The most common areas are lease and contract reviews, workplace regulations, confidentiality, and protection of personal information.

Our starting point is to meet with new clients and get an understanding of their small business and legal needs. This process is like when you first meet a doctor. We go over your history, past concerns, and future goals. We check the vital signs of the business and recommend areas for improvement. This process depends on the size of the small business and normally costs $1,500-$3,000 plus tax.

When a crisis hits

When a crisis hits, prompt transparent response is necessary, especially if the problem can affect a business’ reputation or productivity. We provide full crisis management services.

We provide court work when urgent action is required and mediation services to assist in the private resolution of the problem.

All of our services are tailored to your needs, and our goal is to always deliver cost-effective solutions.

If you are a small business owner, or are starting a business, please give us a call for a free consultation. Then, you decide how much or how little we can assist you.
