Involvement in any business brings with it the potential for significant legal issues. These can range from business start-up, protection of the business’s goodwill to expansion of the business through acquisition, as well as a myriad of regulatory compliance issues applicable to particular industry sectors.

These matters may arise in the context of implementing a transaction or the resolution of a dispute. Often they call for expert contract writing skills.

If you own and operate your own business or are involved in the management of a listed public company, special considerations apply to the legal services that are required of you.
