"Business" is a rather broad label. Broad as it is, most of what we do is assist businesses with their affairs. From drafting documents and providing guidance at the inception of the business to winding up the affairs of a business (or negotiating/effecting the a sale of a business) and everything in between, we handle both the litigation and the transactional/consulting side.
20 years, 100 cases
My family owns a large construction company where I worked, full or part-time, from the ages of 15 - 29. Since becoming an attorney, I have represented developers and contractors in every facet of their operations.
