Business Law

Business Law

From simple filings to unexpected fire drills to the confident calculation of risk, every day is an opportunity to grow. You need a trusted ally who not only understands your business and its needs but also has the experience to anticipate them—someone who answers every call, shoots straight, and encourages the best decision, even when it’s the hard decision. That’s our business law team. Together, we’ll clear the path for you to do what you do best: build business.

You are accomplished attorneys, you do your due diligence and you do it diligently, but you are business people first and that is unique.

Focus Areas

Mergers & Acquisitions

Shepherding your company through change can be exhilarating, but it can also be taxing. Once we have an understanding of your goals, we’ll connect with your financial advisors and accountants on the details of the deal so you can focus on your team, your communications, and your future.

Succession Planning

The long-term success of any enterprise is far from a given. Preparing to pass the torch requires forethought and careful planning. Together, we’ll put the pieces in place that will not only set you up for the next chapter, but that provide peace of mind for everyone involved.

Private Equity Investment

Whether you’ve already established private equity or are looking to start, our team will work with your leaders and financial partners to structure and manage your fund by raising capital, forming alliances, and identifying opportunities that lead to deals that pay dividends.

Financing & Capitalization

Captial fuels both new and established businesses alike. The route to securing it? That can look very different from company to company. Together, we’ll analyze the pros and cons of each opportunity to figure out the right equity-debt mix for your circumstances.

Corporate Contracts

Corporate contracts are necessary to protect and propel your business forward. And chances are, they’re the furthest thing from your mind. Our team is well-practiced in the full range of corporate contracts, from leases to licensing agreements and everything in between.

Reorganizations & Divestitures

The impetus for reorganizing or divestitures can vary greatly from industry to industry, but the net effect is often similar: a more efficient, more profitable company. We’ll work side by side with your leadership team to ensure every opportunity is realized throughout the process.

Cannabis Law

With the passage of the Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act, adult use of cannabis is now legal in New York State. The growth and sale of hemp, cannabidiol (CBD), delta-8 THC, and other cannabis products is a market full of opportunities right now. However, it is important to understand ever-changing the local, state, and federal laws surrounding the industry.
