"LLC, S Corporation, LP, which is best
for me?" "I'm worried someone might steal my business idea, how can I protect it?" "I've dealt with that customer for years,
so why should I have the agreement in writing?"
Entrepreneurship
is a part of the American cultural fabric and one of the primary generators of new jobs and wealth. It is, however,
also fraught with considerable and often hidden risks. At the Law Office of Alexander Hornaday, LLC we emphasize identifying
those risks and planning for them before they become problems, and finding creative solutions to disputes before the situation
gets to court. Nonetheless, there are times when resort to the legal system is necessary, and in such cases we provide
vigorous advocacy to defend the rights and interests of our clients.
We
can provide valuable counsel to the entrepreneur starting the new business from just an idea, or advise an established business
as it manages its operations, from the day-to-day to the extraordinary.
Among
other things we can help you - Select and utilize the best business structure based on your company's goals, either from inception or
going forward;
- Manage the complicated
regulatory systems your business will encounter;
- Navigate the daunting realm of securities regulation whether you are just going public, planning
a secondary offering, or pursuing a private placement;
- Obtain commercial financing by reviewing loan documents and assisting in credit reviews;
- Draft commercial agreements including:
- Contracts for the sale of goods and services,
- Employee or independent contractor agreements,
- Non-disclosure agreements, and
- Documents concerning the ownership and license of intellectual
property,
- Acquire or rent the appropriate real estate for
your business
- Prepare for the unexpected
and assess the risk of liability when the unexpected becomes the expected;
- Find creative and cooperative dispute resolution before asking a court
to get involved;
- Represent your
business in litigation before a court or administrative hearing; and
- Whatever else your business may require!
Remember: the best and least expensive time to consult an attorney is before problems arise!
