Boca Raton Corporate Law Attorney
Examples of Corporate Law Disputes and Legal Issues Corporate law encompasses all of the following case types:
- Mergers: Don’t enter a merger agreement without assessing the details and seeking counsel from an experienced Boca Law team.
- Acquisitions: The purchase of existing businesses and assets is an effective way to expand a corporation. However, it’s important that you only move ahead with an acquisition when the deal has been fully vetted by an experienced corporate attorney.
- Formation of new corporations: New corporations will require extensive legal protections so that the company and all stakeholders have peace of mind. Legal advice will be necessary throughout the formation process.
- The issuing and sale of corporate securities: Corporate securities can be issued to help raise finances, reward employees and executives, or to take a company public. Don’t issue securities without legal advice. Compliance is especially difficult if you don’t have the right counsel.
- Corporate tax issues: Tax laws are both complex and cumbersome. However, failing to maintain compliance can result in severe penalties. With the right attorney, you can ensure that you pay the taxes that are required while taking advantage of all subsidies and exemptions.
- Employment disputes and rights violations: Any dispute with an employee or group of employees needs to be carefully managed. It’s essential that a corporation acts within the law, while also exercising its own legally afforded protections.
- Shareholder disputes: Shareholder disputes can be time-consuming to manage and resolve. Our team can help to draw contracts for new shareholders and to resolve ongoing disputes.
- Violations of securities, tax, or environmental law: If your corporation has violated a law related to taxes, securities, or environmental regulations, you will need expert representation. Protect your business interests within the full extent of the law.
- Derivative suits: These unique suits can arise when a shareholder or group of shareholders sue an individual on behalf of the company. Suits are often targeted towards insiders like executives or managers. Management is responsible for defending against these suits. To succeed in your defense, you will need the best lawyers in Boca Raton.
Resolving Corporate Legal Disputes with a Boca Raton Corporate Law Attorney
Often, it is in the best interest of all parties involved in a dispute to settle it out of court. This saves money, time and allows the results of the settlement to be kept private, which can pay dividends to the corporation by keeping its legal difficulties out of the public eye. Because of this, many corporations opt to resolve their legal issues through alternative dispute resolution. Many corporate contracts actually require that any legal disputes that arise be resolved, or at least attempt to be resolved, through a form of alternative dispute resolution like arbitration or mediation. When this is not the case, or if an attempt to resolve a dispute through alternative dispute resolution fail, the dispute may be litigated.
Be proactive and seek legal counsel from an experienced corporate law attorney as soon as you can to determine your options for resolving your case. Corporate lawsuits are typically civil lawsuits, rather than criminal lawsuits.
