Corporations:
Individuals who operate their own businesses often
choose to incorporate. The incorporation process results in the creation of a new entity
which is registered with the State. It may provide the owners of the business with
protection from liability from the debts of the corporation and wrongful acts of
employees. It also provides a convenient method for more than one individual to invest in
the business and for the business to continue unchanged while ownership changes. The
formation of a corporation also requires additional accounting work and state filings.
Each business owner has to weigh the benefits of incorporation against additional costs.
Other alternatives for the operation of a business
include sole proprietorships, partnerships, limited partnerships, and limited liability
companies. We can assist you in setting up any of these entities, in preparing all the
necessary documentation, maintaining the entity and in preparing shareholder or
partnership agreements.
Contracts:
We can draft Florida contracts for you or your
business or review contracts you have been asked to sign. We can prepare or review
employment agreements, non-compete agreements, sales contracts and business agreements.
Provisions in a contract that specify such things as the term of the agreement,
termination provisions, and the parties rights on default, including attorneys fees, can
significantly improve your protection. The initial cost of a properly prepared contract is
usually small compared to the cost of a lawsuit over an ambiguous agreement. We also deal
extensively in contract litigation and negotiation.
Foreclosures:
We represent both Plaintiffs and Defendants in real
estate foreclosures. Florida law does not allow self-help or administrative foreclosures,
so all actions to take real property must be through the court system. Many foreclosures
also end up in Bankruptcy Court, so a knowledge of state law and bankruptcy law is
helpful. We handle all aspects of a foreclosure
