Running a business demands more than vision and hard work—you need thoughtful, dedicated counsel to help capitalize on opportunities and navigate challenges. At Franklin & Frankel, we offer comprehensive business law services designed to help businesses thrive at every stage, from formation to succession planning. Whether you’re negotiating contracts, preparing for a sale or acquisition, or safeguarding your company’s interests, we are here to guide you every step of the way.
Business Transactions; Mergers & Acquisitions
Business sales, mergers, and acquisitions are pivotal moments in any company’s lifecycle. These deals offer opportunities for growth, expansion into new markets, and an exit strategy. But these transactions are complex and each one is different. Having experienced legal counsel on hand is essential to ensure your transaction goes smoothly.
At Franklin & Frankel, we guide businesses through every stage of M&A transactions. From structuring the deal and negotiating your letter of intent to drafting and reviewing contracts and the closing table, we ensure that your interests are protected and that the transaction aligns with your strategic goals.
Contractual Agreements
At Franklin & Frankel, our attorneys are experienced in crafting various agreements that safeguard your business and set you up for growth. We help our clients draft and negotiate operating agreements, employment agreements, nondisclosure and confidentiality agreements.
From vendor and client agreements to service contracts, our team helps mitigate risks and prevent costly disputes. We regularly craft buy-sell agreements, crucial for planning ownership transitions due to retirement, disability, or unforeseen events.
Annual Business Housekeeping
Annual business housekeeping is essential for companies of all sizes. We help companies stay on top of crucial tasks like updating corporate records, filing required documents, and reviewing governance policies. Regular reviews of contracts, policies, and operations ensure your business is prepared for audits and can adapt to changing regulations. You can focus on growth with proactive legal support while we handle the details.
Outside General Counsel
Outside general counsel services provide businesses with reliable, on-demand legal expertise without the expense of maintaining a full-time in-house attorney. Relying on our firm for general counsel support on an as-needed basis offers the kind of legal guidance your company needs without the cost of building a full-time counsel office internally. We assist with everything from day-to-day challenges to navigating complex legal issues with long-term ramifications.
Succession Planning
Succession planning is like the corporate version of creating an estate plan. Our attorneys help business owners and managers develop tailored strategies to smoothly transition leadership when the time comes. Whether preparing for retirement, an unexpected event, or transferring the business to the next generation, our team provides guidance to address legal, financial, and operational challenges.
