How I can help you
As a practicing lawyer, I have provided legal advice and business counsel to a wide variety of business, ranging from start ups, to businesses considering growth options, including growth strategies, mergers, acquisitions, and businesses that were financially challenged, and considering downsizing or even going out of business. This has included issues related to ownership structures for partnerships, joint ventures and arrangements for investors, as well as financing, litigation and contracting issues.
Finally, I also have significant experience in disputes, and how they might be handled to avoid costly litigation or arbitration, or how to approach resolution processes such as mediation.
