Corporate Law Practice
The Pohl & Short business transactions department offers sophisticated legal services to business owners
of all types and sizes. We draft documents and provide tax and other regulatory advice regarding the organization,
operation and sale of all business entities, both domestic and international. Our clients range from small retail
establishments to multi-million dollar entities operating internationally. We provide business documents and
legal advice of the highest caliber with the personal attention and prompt service available only at a business
boutique law firm.
In some cases, our representation involves only corporate matters. In other instances, we provide corporate
representation in conjunction with other legal services and coordinate this multi-faceted representation to
avoid duplication and inefficiencies. Unlike a multi-state or multi-office law firm encumbered by layers of
administration, we are easily accessible and work to efficiently resolve your legal needs.
Set out below is a brief description of the major areas of our corporate practice:
-
Organization of Business Entities
Our corporate attorneys form business entities (whether corporations, limited liability companies, joint ventures,
general partnerships, limited partnerships or foreign entities). Each member of our corporate department is qualified
to negotiate and draft organizational documents, as well as documentation necessary for the establishment of
financing, licensing, franchising, shareholder and partnership agreements, employment agreements and related
organizational documents.
-
Mergers and Acquisitions
Our corporate lawyers work with our clients in buying, selling and reorganizing all types of businesses. We will
assist you in all phases of negotiating, structuring and documenting business acquisitions, mergers and
reorganizations. This includes the preparation of letters of intent, asset purchase agreements, stock purchase
agreements, merger agreements, partnerships, joint ventures and reorganizations, as well the due diligence
investigations associated with those transactions. Our corporate department has aided clients ranging from local
entrepreneurs expanding their businesses to national and multi-national conglomerates acquiring or merging with
other entities. The corporate department includes attorneys who speak Spanish fluently and have experience
in conducting entire transactions in Spanish.
-
Corporate Tax Matters
Our corporate lawyers have substantial practical experience in all aspects of commercial tax law. In determining
the appropriate type of entity to be organized with respect to a new business or how to purchase, sell or
reorganize an existing business, our corporate lawyers will structure the transaction to create the most optimal
tax impact while attaining your business goals. Our corporate lawyers are also trained with respect to
international tax matters and structure international business transactions to minimize worldwide tax liability
and maximize the benefits of international treaties and foreign tax credits.
The goal of all our lawyers is to fulfill your business law needs. We want you to feel confident that your matter
is being handled properly and efficiently, to be kept informed of its status, and to have a single attorney at
the firm who is responsible and knowledgeable for all of your matters. This defines our business boutique law firm
and contributes to your success and the success of our firm.
