General Business Counsel

The everyday legal questions of running a company across Columbus and central Ohio: formation, contracts, ownership, and the decisions that come with growth.

Counsel for the Decisions a Business Faces

Running a company produces a steady stream of legal questions. How to form the entity. How to structure ownership. Whether a contract protects you. What to do when a deal, a partner, or a vendor relationship changes. We are the firm owners call for those questions, with practical answers sized to the decision in front of you.

The goal is judgment, not volume. We tell you what matters, what does not, and what the sensible course is. Where a matter touches tax, employment, or real estate, we can handle that too, so you are not stitching together advice from several firms.

What We Handle

  • Entity formation: LLCs, corporations, and partnerships.
  • Operating and shareholder agreements.
  • Commercial contracts and vendor agreements.
  • Buy-sell agreements and ownership transitions.
  • Business purchases and sales.
  • The general counsel questions a small company cannot staff for.

One Firm for Connected Matters

A single decision often spans areas. Selling the company raises tax and contract questions. Bringing on a partner raises ownership and employment questions. Because the firm covers tax, employment, and real estate as well, the advice stays consistent across the matter.
