Business Strategy

---

New Founders understand how difficult it is to launch a business.  You have to turn a great idea into a great business, and every great business should be built off of a solid foundation.  That foundation is one that starts with a proper business entity and continues with corporate financing which supports all other phases of growth.  I work with founders and early stage companies throughout these phases.  I will help you structure your business entity, advise on various methods of corporate financing and will act as counsel on various growth strategies- such as mergers and acquisitions.

Business Entity Structuring-

One of the very first questions founders ask themselves is what is the best entity to form.  C-Corporations, S-Corporations, Limited Liability Companies, Sole Proprietorships are the most commonly used business forms.  There are pros and cons to each of them.  I will first consult with you to understand the type of business you are looking to create.  We will then discuss the size of the business, the amount of partners you will have, your financing strategy, your target geographic reach and much more.  I will use this information to advise you on the best entity structure for your business.  

I will assist you with structuring that selected entity after we have decided on the proper choice.  This includes necessary state filings, drafting organizational documents and compliance advising to keep your business entity in good standing.    

Business Counsel-

Once you are up and running, I can act as business counsel for your daily operations.  As you transact business, I can negotiate, draft and review third party agreements with employees, contractors, vendors, clients and other business partners.  I will advise you on strategic business decisions providing both practical business and legal insight.  

Mergers and Acquisitions-

Mergers and acquisitions can provide excellent growth opportunities for a company.  They allow you to acquire talent, enter new markets, provide more services, collect additional assets and growth in several other ways.

I can guide you through the m&a process.  I can assist you with devising the proper strategy.  I will provide due diligence on a company you are thinking of acquiring or merging with.  I can assist you with the negotiations of the deal terms and provide counsel during the entire contract to closing process.
