Premarital Agreement
Buy-Sell Agreements govern buyouts between the co-owners of a business, controlling when owners can sell their interest, who can buy an owner’s interest, and what price will be paid. These agreements come into play when an owner retires, goes bankrupt, becomes disabled, gets divorced or dies. They are somewhat analogous to a prenuptial agreement between business co-owners. They do not concern buying or selling companies.

Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
In addition to complying with laws explicitly regulating franchises, parties to a franchise arrangement must contend with a wide variety of legal and business issues: antitrust, securities and corporate law, federal and state tax law and laws relating to the termination and renewal of franchises.
Business Disputes
To efficiently manage a privately held business's legal concerns requires a lawyer with a broad range of knowledge in business law matters, but one sufficiently specialized to offer expertise on the issues involved. Peter Chase will skillfully handle your legal matters in...
Business Transactions
Few buyers have sufficient resources to pay cash for a business. Rarely does a seller feel completely comfortable with only the buyer’s bare promise to pay for a business after the closing. The seller usually wants something else, some additional assurances, from the buyer. The seller of the business wants to be in a secured position if the buyer does not fully pay for the business at closing. A secured transaction is as basic to business transactions as the seller’s extending credit to the buyer.
Limited Liability Companies
Corporations are legal entities which are separate and distinct from their owners. They provide liability protection for their owners and are also usually somewhat less burdensome to operate than limited liability companies. Corporations are subject to varying tax treatment depending on whether they have elected "S" corporation status. S corporations are taxed similarly to partnerships (see - limited liability companies below). Corporations that have not elected "S" status have the disadvantage of double taxation, but have certain other advantages such as unlimited shareholders and liberal fringe benefit opportunities.
Intellectual Property
Antitrust
In the typical franchise, the franchisor limits the geographical area in which a franchisee can operate, restricts the products or services a franchisee can offer, and requires the franchisee to buy from approved sources. In such an arrangement, antitrust issues can easily arise and case law has developed that adapts antitrust concepts to the franchise relationship. The franchisor may require a franchisee to sell only products licensed by the franchisor or produced from ingredients supplied by the franchisor to assure quality and to protect the business format of the franchisor. The franchisor may also require a franchisee to purchase only from approved sources as long as the franchisor sets standards and specifications and it is reasonably necessary to assure quality and to protect the business format of the franchisor. However, a franchisor cannot coerce a franchisee to sell products which are unconnected to quality standards. Kickbacks are also usually automatic antitrust violations.

Workers Compensation
Whether you need insurance depends on your business activities and the amount of liability exposure that you have from the activity. In addition, insurance may be required for employees (such as worker's compensation insurance or unemployment insurance). Some common forms of business insurance include: (1) commercial multi-peril policies (covering a variety of exposures), (2) liability insurance covering premises, activities, and products, (3) business interruption insurance, (4) surety and performance bonds, and (5) malpractice and errors and omissions coverage. In deciding whether to purchase insurance, you should analyze your risk exposure. If you are unable to determine your risk of loss from engaging in business, contact a commercial lines insurance broker.
Employment Contract
An employment contract which is part of a business sale is usually different than in any other context in one crucial area - the identity of the employee. Often the person who is receiving the employment contract is the former owner/president of the company.

Land Use and Zoning

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Contrary to popular belief, estate planning involves much more than just drawing up a Will. Your plan should also include changing your will periodically to accommodate changes to your family structure (i.e., marriage, divorce, adoption, etc.), changes to your assets (acquiring new assets, selling off existing assets, etc.), changes to how your assets distributed after your death, and changes to probate and other laws pertaining to the distribution of your assets. While, distribution of your assets upon your death is an important part of your estate plan, effectively planning your estate involves much more than that. Other issues to consider in your estate plan include...

Bankruptcy
Tax Law
No better example of the interconnection of different areas of law exists than franchise. Franchisors and franchisees both need lawyers that, besides being knowledgeable in franchise regulatory issues, can skillfully handle their corporate, LLC, trademark, securities, antitrust and tax matters.
