Business Law Services for New Businesses

Are you planning to start your own business or launch your startup? Before you get going, it might be a good idea to speak to a business lawyer first. The Jolley Law Group is a business law firm that can help you with key legal issues that you may want to consider when launching your new business or startup. Here are some legal things to think about if you are starting your own business.

Business Structure and Formation

Are you going into business as a sole proprietor, or are you setting up a partnership, LLC, or corporation? Do you know the differences and the benefits and drawbacks of each? While some business structures are easier to establish they can put your personal finances at greater risk of liability. A business lawyer like the attorneys at the Jolley Law Group can take the time to learn more about your business needs, and help you with setting up the right structure for your business. Certain business structures may have added tax benefits, but these structures may not be right for all businesses. Don’t leave your company’s legal structure up to chance. Contact the Jolley Law Group to learn more today.

Business Tax and Succession Planning

Understanding your tax obligations if you are starting your own business is important. Failing to get this right could set you up for a big tax bill down the road. If you are launching your own startup or small business, reach out to the Jolley Law Group to learn more about business tax and succession planning. When it comes to helping you find the right structure for your needs, or planning ahead to protect your business interests when it comes to taxes, the Jolley Law Group can help.

Contracts

If you are starting a new business and plan to do business with customers or other companies, do you have sound contracts in place? Whether you are offering contracts for services or need sales contracts, or other types of contracts, the Jolley Law Group is a business law firm that may be able to help you. Businesses that rely on verbal agreements or informal agreements run the risk of facing misunderstandings or even litigation. The best way to make sure that you and your customers and clients are clear about your services is to have a sound contract in place. Reach out to the Jolley Law Group, a business law firm today to learn more.

Employment

If you are a new business and will be hiring new employees, congratulations! Hiring employees comes with immense responsibility. Having a contract with employees ensures that you and your workers are on the same page about the terms of employment, compensation, and other matters. If you plan to hire contractors, it can also help to have contracts that make the relationship clear. If you have intellectual property you need to protect or other interests, some employers also use non-compete and non-disclosure agreements in their contracts. The Jolley Law Group can also help you understand your legal obligations when it comes to hiring new workers. Have questions about employment? The Jolley Law Group is a business law firm that can help.

Compliance

Different businesses have different types of licensure, HIPAA, and privacy compliance requirements. You may need to meet OSHA standards or have worker’s compensation insurance. Not meeting these compliance standards can cost you down the line. Don’t make a mistake that can put your business in jeopardy. Reach out to the business lawyers at the Jolley Law Group today to learn more about how to meet compliance standards, and let us help you.
