Corporate Structuring & Transactions
The firm provides full-service corporate transactional services. On the corporate governance side, we provide clients with services including the maintenance of an electronic corporate book, conducting meetings and keeping minutes, ensuring notices and votes are done correctly, and otherwise protecting the officers, directors, and managers of companies from the liability and exposure that arises in connection with the performance of their duties.
All too often, we have clients come to us where these aspects of business have been entirely ignored or mishandled. Managing the company in accordance with the statutes and keeping the correct corporate records is essential, both in terms of running the internal operations of the business and, most importantly, avoiding the litigation that is triggered by substandard corporate governance.
In addition to corporate governance, the firm handles all manner of contracts involving businesses and individuals. The following is a non-exhaustive list of the types of intra-company and outside-business transactions that the firm handles:
