I assist both established companies, and ones that are brand new. I help clients decide on the proper form the business should take, after weighing the various considerations that go into that decision - tax, financial, contractual, and liability, among others. I assist my clients with established businesses in negotiating, preparing, and reviewing contracts, dealing with disputes, protecting intellectual property, the lease and purchase of property, and many other issues.

Professional, prompt service

Cevin Taylor has served my company for several years. He has helped with contracts, setting up LLC documents, and has helped us to avoid litigation. He is prompt and professional. He doesn't overcharge in rate or billing time. He gives excellent advice. Highly recommended!
