Who We Serve

Sophisticated Legal Counsel for Serious Entrepreneurs

Let's be honest... Every business or non-profit organization has a target market or audience. None of us can (or should even try) to be all things to all people. While we're always happy to "talk shop" and share ideas with fellow entrepreneurs, we know that we're not going to be the right fit for every potential client. So how do we define "serious entrepreneurs"?

POSITIVE PEOPLE ON A PASSIONATE MISSION

At the heart of it all, we help positive people on a passionate mission pursue those passions without worrying that legal "stuff" might come back to bite them. Our best clients: communicate with us about the matter at hand AND their big picture goals and vision for their business or nonprofit; pursue that vision and their underlying goals with a passion; exhibit integrity, honesty, and loyalty; are fun but still professional; and exude positive energy.

THERE IS NO "I" IN TEAM

Our best clients have a team of people around them--business or strategic partners, key employees, investors, an advisory board or board of directors, etc. It's not that we don't help solo-preneurs, but that most of our clients are not planning to remain one person shops forever. Our clients range from start-ups to organizations with about 100 employees. 

SPEAKING OF TEAMS

As a business law firm, we want to be part of your team. Our best clients have a relationship with us long before a "problem" arises because they recognize the value of having trusted legal counsel at every step of the way. We're not like 911; you don't have to wait until there is an emergency to call.

SPEAKING OF BUDGETS

Just like marketing, accounting, and banking are line items in your annual business / nonprofit budget, there should also be a line item for legal services. Of course, just how much should be in your budget can vary quite a bit depending on whether the organization is a start-up or a rapidly growing company that has been in business for several years. It also depends on whether or not you are involved in a highly regulated industry. For example, franchisors, medical professionals, credit service companies, etc., can all expect to spend more for legal services than a brick and mortar retail business. Regardless, as long as the organization has a budget, our goal is to find a way to help you minimize legal risks and plan for the future within that budget.

If you love what you do and you want to build something amazing (or take amazing to the next level), then let's talk.
