Business Counseling

From 40 years of providing services to companies and individuals experiencing financial distress has arisen a unique practice of counseling people and companies on “how not to fail.” What does this mean? Planning is the key. When starting a new business or currently operating a business, relevant resources, information and tools are essential. Corporate bylaws and shareholder agreements or limited liability operating agreements are the foundation of sound business practices. We often act as the “conductor of the orchestra.” Working with labor lawyers to plan for the regulatory compliant treatment of employees is an essential resource. Family lawyers well versed in community property issues are another resource. Estate Planning lawyers come into play when the future disposition of ownership is made part of the conversation. Accountants who understand accounting issues beyond mere tax returns complete the field of expertise.
