Sacramento Business Attorney

If you are looking for a Sacramento business attorney, why not hire a law firm with experience in business? Real world experience.

Our Firm's founding attorney did not navigate the school-to-law-firm pipeline like most other attorneys. He worked in the real world. He has experience working with small startups and Fortune 100 companies alike. And after employment with others, he started his own company (which he still runs) helping small businesses grow.

We know business because we do business. Your business is not an abstraction. It is not a series of papers filed with the State or kept in a filing cabinet. It is not the stock certificates you can order on Amazon or the business cards you can order on Vista Print.

Your business is more.

Your business is the manifestation of a dream. Your business is a dough formed with your sweat and your blood. Your business lives today because you woke up and chose to assume the habits of a professional gambler and take on risks your friends and family told you were foolish.

Your business, whether established or just starting out, is a testament to your ability to endure pain with patience.

No matter your needs, a Sacramento business attorney can help. Contract drafting, compliance, business formation, trial defense, trade secrets. Whatever issue is occupying your kitchen table at the expense of time with good food and family, we can help. And yes, we know. Every dime you spend with us is being taxed against your retirement, your family vacation, and your child's college fund. Let us make it count for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes.

The answer to this is largely dependent on (a) who will own the business and (b) the potential tax liabilities. Other issues may rule out certain entity selections altogether. For example, a single person going into business on their own cannot form a partnership, since a partnership requires two or more partners. And an attorney looking to start a practice cannot use an LLC to do so. For any advanced tax issues, we know CPAs who can assist you in making the appropriate decision.

Probably not. A sole proprietor can represent themselves in court on the issue, because there is no corporate entity involved. But when a partnership, an LLC, or a corporation get sued or want to sue, they need to be represented by an attorney because the business entity is a separate legal entity from the owner(s). An exception to this rule exists for small claims cases, where a non-attorney representative is permitted to appear for the business entity. That said, if you are the sole-owner of an LLC in California who has recently lost a lawsuit, and you had a meritorious claim or a meritorious defense, but lost because you could not find an attorney to represent you, you should contact us immediately.
