Our experience and connections can help your business grow.

Your business is big enough to have big legal concerns.

Every day, businesses too small to employ a legal department run across situations where they need legal advice to smooth their way and avoid BIG problems down the road:

  • The IRS challenges whether a contractor is really an employee. How do you document status of people you pay?
  • You need to buy or lease property. What should you look for in the contract?
  • You get a letter from a regulatory agency. How do you answer it?

Bill Price knows. Call 800.630.4780 or email him to find out how as little as $500 a month can give you the peace of mind of a lawyer who knows your business at your service, only an email or a phone call away.

GrowthLaw can help find financing:

A growing business often needs financing options. GrowthLaw can help you find and deal with

  • SBA, other government-guaranteed lenders
  • Private equity groups or business "angels"
As your business moves forward with a financing deal, GrowthLaw provides

  • compliance with securities and business organization laws
  • deal structures that protect all parties. 


GrowthLaw can help you sell
or buy businesses:

Tax time approaches: is your business properly organized?

Now is a good time to review the state of your business, its tax liabilities and how you plan to make your business grow this year. These questions can get you started.

  • When did you last review taxes and regulations that apply to your business? Don't get caught by changes in income, sales, unemployment and other taxes;  licensing requirements for your business or employees; or environmental, worker safety, and other regulations.
  • Is your business big enough to need formal organization? Which would be best? Bill can help you choose the right form for your business from the options of LLC, LP, and various other corporate forms, by explaining the tax and legal consequences of various corporate entities.
  • Do you need buy-sell agreements with partners or investors? These can reduce complications if partners argue or when an investor wishes to cash out..
  • If you use independent contractors, be sure you document their independence. People who don't pay employment taxes without proof of contractor economic independence and proper arms-length contract  relationship will have IRS, state UI office, and wage claim liabilities.
Of course, other issues besides tax liability can affect your company. For instance:

  • If you have employees, do you have and use an employee handbook? Bill has experience with personnel contracts, noncompete agreements, and other considerations in relation to both employees and outside contractors or freelance help. 
  • Does your business have plans in place for leadership succession? Sole proprietor and family-owned businesses often fail to survive unplanned transitions after owner CEO death or disability. Let Bill help you plan for your business to survive.
  • Should you buy some customers, sell all or part of your business, refinance, or recapitalize? Interest rates are low, and so are commercial and industrial property prices. If you need to sell, potential buyers are numerous, for strategic reasons, or because they need to buy a good management job.
