Our business attorneys specialize in forming and structuring business entities, ranging from closely held corporations and limited liability companies to emerging growth companies destined for an IPO. Our business attorneys have one overriding objective: to understand our client’s business goals and then help to achieve them as effectively and efficiently as possible. Our expertise includes:

• Advising on choice of entity, ownership and management structure
• Preparation of formation and organizational documents, and shareholder and operating agreements
• Optimizing entity structure in consultation with accounting and tax professionals
• Advising on compensation arrangements — including stock options, synthetic equity, performance-based bonus plans and other incentives — for principals, management and key employees
