A contract is a document that illustrates an understanding of a relationship. Relationships are complex dealings between two or more people that requires effective communication and mutual understanding to survive. We work with you to develop agreements with other parties including your clients, customers, vendors, landlords, tenants, debtors, creditors, or the government to make sure your relationships survive so that your business survives. Contracts are far more than standard templates and requires extensive evaluation of the other party, the interest of the potential relationship, and other risk factors that impact the relationship. We will guide and advise you through entering into contracts to limit liability and to ensure that you are entering into business ventures that only result adding value to your business. We will negotiate with parties, and we will represent you in any contract disputes.
