Reasons You Should Develop a Relationship with a Business Attorney in Florida

Business attorneys can be valuable no matter what your business is going through—whether you’re just getting started as a small business owner or are facing a business litigation suit / legal issue. However, a good rule of thumb to follow is this: the longer you wait to hire a business attorney, the more challenging your legal situation can become.

The saying, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” could not be more applicable. If you hire a business lawyer early in a business, partnership, or dispute, you can save yourself a lot of stress in the long run.

How a lawyer can help your company’s business development?

Although the role of a corporate lawyer is quite broad, they typically help business owners understand their rights, function efficiently and avoid foreseeable legal issues. Consider these crucial ways commercial lawyers will help your business establish a solid foundation and generate long-term growth.

Preventing Business Litigation

Waiting until the time your business gets a court summons regarding a lawsuit is often too late for hiring a business litigation lawyer. When you have a knowledgeable business lawyer already on hand, you tend to stay ahead of such issues and can receive much-needed guidance immediately when incidents occur that could lead to a business lawsuit. To bring in a litigation attorney after the fact is simply a damage control tactic that only works to minimize damages, court costs, and harm to your brand’s reputation. Business law firms with business litigation departments are not only for defending cases; they are perfect for preventing them in the first place.

Incorporation of New Businesses and Supporting Business Operations

An experienced corporate lawyer can take care of the piles of administrative paperwork that most businesses encounter. This way, you can focus on setting up your company and spend important time working on other areas, such as product development or marketing.

Commercial lawyers play an essential role in the incorporation of new businesses as well. Across the preparation of complicated documents, establishing a legal structure and elaborate trademarking practices, corporate lawyers can also help source investors and generate a forward-thinking corporate structure.

Reviewing and Preparing Legal Documents

With so many different types of contracts to consider, a corporate lawyer can pore over these deals to ensure your business is protecting itself. As small and medium-sized businesses regularly have to sign new contracts with clients, investors, suppliers, and employees among many other parties, making sure these documents are legally sound is something you can’t ignore. Backed by a commercial lawyer who understands your industry, you can ensure your business isn’t slowed down by needless contractual disputes.

Settling Disputes

Don’t let your emerging business get dragged down by avoidable commercial problems. If you operate in the commercial landscape for long enough, encountering a dispute that requires legal assistance is almost inevitable. Fortunately, a corporate law firm can offer comprehensive advice no matter what kind of disagreement you face. Whether you take the problem to court or decide to settle, a corporate lawyer can handle these problematic events so you can get back to business.

Advice on Latest Regulatory Changes and on other Legal Matters

Professional commercial lawyers are great for anticipating potential issues in the future, while they will provide imperative advice when you have to weigh up the potential risks and benefits of a deal.

A regular contact to a corporate lawyer also means you stay aware of the latest regulatory changes. While you might be too busy to keep on top of how the local government is shifting regulations, a dedicated legal advisor will have a precise understanding of how these developments will impact your business going forward.

Business Lawyers Help Grow Your Company Valuation

Business lawyers can help leverage your tangible and intangible assets to help you understand and grow the valuation of your company. This includes building an intellectual property portfolio with the trademark lawyers and patent lawyers at the firm you use, as well as making sure your contracts, such as master services agreements, vendor and subcontractor agreements, independent contractor agreements, and leases have favorable terms. This makes your business more competitive and much more attractive in acquisitions deals if you ever want to buy, merger, or sell a company, bring on partners, do joint ventures, or get investment capital.

Situations That Require a Business Litigation Attorney:

Contract Disputes

A contract dispute occurs when one party has a disagreement regarding contract terms, definitions, or performance. And when you’re running a business, the types of contracts that you have can run the gamut. Different types of documents include:

  • Sale of a business
  • Purchase agreements
  • Vendor agreements
  • Non-compete agreements
  • Operating agreements
  • Service agreements
  • Compliance & Risk Management 

Whether you are being accused of violating an agreement or another party has failed to uphold their end of the contract, navigating a business dispute on your own will often lead to less than optimal outcomes.

Business Breakups

It’s a good idea to have a comprehensive exit strategy before you find yourself in the middle of a messy business breakup. In the heat of the moment, personal relationships may have deteriorated and finances are stretched thin, so it can be difficult to think rationally.

There’s no doubt that every business is unique—there’s no one-size-fits-all strategy to a business breakup. In the end, everyone wants to walk away from the situation with a favorable outcome and with the business’ assets being preserved.

Intellectual Property Infringement

What may be less evident, however, is that you should consider retaining a business attorney prior to infringement actually occurring. As a business owner, you don’t only have rights to your business’ physical property. Intellectual property law secures your rights to your trademark, logo, business name, and reputation.

See a Lawyer!

A business lawyer can help you navigate the difficult waters of a business. It’s crucial to consult the appropriate resources and ask the right questions when you hire a lawyer. We help business owners to understand the problems they’re facing and which problems they might face in the future
