Business & Tax Law Attorneys

Experienced Business Law Attorneys Serving Kentucky and Indiana

Our business law services meet you at the intersection of commerce and law. We aim to support small to mid-sized companies in navigating the complex legal landscape that impacts their day-to-day operations. Whether you are just starting out or looking to expand or restructure, we provide comprehensive legal guidance that helps protect your business, ensure compliance, and foster growth.

Our Services Include:

Entity Formation & Structuring

We assist in choosing the right business structure—such as LLCs, corporations, or partnerships—ensuring that it aligns with your business goals, protects your personal assets, and plans for a tax-friendly succession or exit. Our team always begins with the end in mind, and we will work hand-in-hand with your accountants and/or financial advisors to provide the best path forward.

Contracts & Agreements

From drafting and reviewing contracts to negotiating terms, we help safeguard your interests in agreements with suppliers, customers, partners, contractors, and employees. Small and mid-sized businesses often find themselves in a pickle: negotiating deals with large companies that employ legal counsel. With experience on your side of the table, we are familiar with those challenges and what is and is not possible to negotiate into contracts and agreements with much larger entities. Combined with our quick response time, we reduce the time you need to close the deal.

Dispute Resolution

Should conflicts arise, we offer mediation, arbitration, and, if necessary, representation in court to resolve disputes efficiently while minimizing risk to your business. Simply stated, we avoid disputes as much as possible by planning for confrontation on the front end of an engagement when we initiate entity formation and structure. Furthermore, we make sure conflict resolution is addressed in any contract we facilitate. However, conflict is inevitable, and our deep understanding of commerce and business operations helps us achieve a best-possible outcome for our clients.

Mergers & Acquisitions

Our team provides legal advice and support for mergers, acquisitions, and sales, ensuring smooth transactions and helping you achieve your strategic objectives. We work hand-in-hand with accountants – either your own or a preferred partner – to handle all the valuation, financial transactions, and legal documentation required to successfully close a deal.

Compliance & Regulatory Guidance

If your business is navigating regulatory changes, we help ensure that you comply with local, state, and federal laws to avoid penalties and legal issues.
