Commercial Law

Every growing New York business faces issues that require the services of an experienced attorney. Stock-option plans, employee negotiations, state and federal taxes and intellectual property rights, all require a corporate lawyer experienced in representing start-ups and emerging companies.

The New York Laws that regulate businesses are both numerous and complicated. These regulations can be difficult to interpret because they are written in legal language not common language to the general public. An attorney with business law experience can help you get on the right track with your business or company by educating you on the law and counseling you on your initial steps.

New York business and corporation law can be complicated. The dangers of not understanding and abiding by both New York and federal law can be costly.

There are a number of legal issues which you must be aware.

• Contract Laws
