In-House Counsel for Small Businesses in California
What if small businesses could afford to have an attorney on staff at all times? It is an essential tool for a small business to have an attorney’s number on speed dial. Many business owners take comfort in knowing that an attorney is available on short notice to answer questions and dispense timely advice.
One of the services our firm offers is an in-house law plan that can be customized to meet the needs of your business. For a low monthly fee, business owners can gain access to an on-call attorney with whom they can schedule meetings on short notice.
The following is a list of legal services that we offer as part of our firm’s in-house counsel plan.
Business Tax Planning and Compliance
Our experienced business tax lawyers are available to alleviate the burden of complying with various tax laws that may apply to your business. We can help you identify and utilize tax provisions that could trigger tax deductions and credits for your business. California and federal tax laws require businesses to adhere to several regulations that can be easily overlooked by an overworked business owner. We will work to prevent any tax issues that could impede your business.
Drafting, Reviewing and Negotiating Contracts
Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating contracts is an essential part of any successful business. For example, if you are offering services to a new client, you may need to tailor your agreement to meet that client’s needs specifically. Our skilled lawyers can draft or review contracts that strike a balance between the unique needs of your clients and the needs of your business.
If you are a new business owner, our lawyers can also help you with the formation of your business. There are a variety of business entities to choose from, such as S corporations and limited liability companies (LLCs) – and picking the right one for your business is critical. Our business formation attorneys can present you with the most desirable options for the company you want to create.
Business Dispute Resolution
Litigation does not have to be the first option when you encounter a business dispute. In some cases, arbitration or mediation may be a more cost-effective and desirable option than litigation. However, if all parties are not willing to settle, or if an arbitrator arrives at an improper judgment, the cost of these options may rise quickly. Our attorneys can help you determine whether arbitration or mediation would benefit your business more than traditional litigation.
Business Bankruptcy
If your business cannot operate effectively due to excessive debt, it may be worth it to consider filing for bankruptcy. Many business entities provide owners and even shareholders with protection from liability for the debts of the company. This means that bankruptcy proceedings will not substantially affect the finances of individuals who operated the company under most circumstances. If your company has become insolvent, you should seek to get ahead of the problem to minimize losses.
