Small Business General Counsel
We help you design, implement, and maintain effective plans to help you reduce your personal liability, preserve all viable income tax deductions, facilitate your retirement, maintain family harmony, retain key employees, and minimize taxes.
Helping You to Live Your Business Dream
Many of our clients are business owners. We are business owners ourselves. So we understand on a very practical level how important it is to proactively monitor your business to ensure you can stay focused on the growth of the business. We focus on an integrated approach to business planning. And, most importantly… we ensure that your business has the proper foundation to allow for maximum growth with minimal risk to you and your loved ones.
We don’t just respond when things go wrong. We proactively work as a strategic partner.
Our Approach
We are the holistic business advisors you have been looking for, not just putting in place legal documents or acting reactively, but instead giving you the peace of mind of knowing you have not only set your business up right from the get go, but that your business systems continue to keep up with your growth trajectory.
We help you with your Legal, Insurance, Financial and Tax issues, and we do all of this in the context of your family values and belief systems.
To accomplish this, we encourage collaboration among all of your professional advisors to help create the most effective team for your success.
Our fees and packages are intentionally structured so that we are all on the same side of the table when it comes to the success of your business.
We are incentivized to be efficient, to be effective, and to help you grow.
