Meeting the Current & Future Needs of Our Clients

At Beardsley, Jensen & Lee, we understand the ever-changing needs of our business law clients. Whether you are just getting established or are facing a serious dispute that could threaten your company, our attorneys are ready to help. No one is given a cookie-cutter, pre-manufactured solution here. Each client and their business are seen on an individual level, and we deliver individualized answers.

Business Formation, Planning & Succession

One of the most challenging aspects of owning a business is forming it. If you are just starting your business, we can advise you—along with your tax advisor—on selecting the right type of business organization. We can draft the documents you will need and provide insightful information to help ensure continued success from the very beginning.

Passing along or selling a business—whether it involves a partnership, LLC, corporation, or S-Corp—can be a challenge, too. While you are focusing on keeping operations moving smoothly, worrying about succession is not something you want to add to your plate. Instead, add it to ours and breathe a little easier.

Our business formation, planning, and succession lawyers can help with:

  • Articles of incorporation
  • Articles of organization
  • Partnership agreements
  • Operating agreements
  • Bylaws
  • Shareholder agreements
  • Buy/sell agreements
  • Asset sales and purchases
  • Non-profit formations
