Starting a new business or taking over an existing one is difficult enough without having to be an expert for all the legal issues.  Sure you can turn to one of those internet filing companies but they don't answer your questions. 

I have worked as general counsel to many small business, entrepreneurs, self-employed persons, franchise owners, and other business client. 

Forming a corporation or LLC. 
Buying or selling an business.
Drafting, reviewing and negotiating all types of business agreements.
Leases of office and retail space

Litigation is never a first step but sometimes it is necessary.  I have represented both plaintiffs and defendants in a variety of business situations.
