Lanier Ford assists clients at every stage of the business life cycle. Clients are advised on which form of entity is most suitable for their business, including the relative advantages and disadvantages of using a proprietorship, general or limited partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, C corporation, or S corporation, and the appropriate state in which to organize the entity.
Clients regularly consult with our attorneys about ongoing operational matters, such as employment and compensation issues, business transactions, and compliance with federal and state laws and regulations, including public-disclosure requirements, mandates of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and fiduciary duties. In addition, our attorneys provide clients with continuous tax planning.
We have substantial experience helping our clients to grow their businesses or, if the opportunity presents itself, to sell or dissolve their businesses. Our firm is experienced in sophisticated transactions such as mergers, acquisitions, reorganizations, and divestitures. Lanier Ford clients include public and private companies (both large and small), venture capital firms, and entrepreneurs in many different industries. No matter the size or type of your business or its current life-cycle stage, Lanier Ford can provide essential planning advice for a successful future.
