Mr. Baynard’s practice focuses on corporate formation, real estate and commercial transactions, as well as banking and commercial finance. His background allows him to represent a variety of businesses from formation through financing and throughout operation. Mr. Baynard is available to help new companies, existing companies seeking out new ventures, and those simply seeking to stay current with changing laws and regulations. He works with real estate developers, Alaska Native corporations, health care groups, manufacturers, financial institutions, and others.
