At the office of Matthew D.

Contact my office to arrange a free initial consultation.
Business Transactions
I advise individuals and business entities on all transactional matters, including:
- Choice of business form. I will take the time to learn about your business and identify your objectives. Together, we will examine the different business structures and determine which legal structure provides the protection you require, as well as the tax consequences you need. I will then prepare and file all the documents necessary to establish your business in compliance with state and federal laws. I will help you set up a partnership, a limited liability company or a corporation.
- The negotiation, review and preparation of commercial contracts. I will handle all aspects of any business agreement, whether a vendor contract, an employment agreement or a contract with a customer.
- Financing arrangements. When you seek venture capital, whether through loans or the sale of debt or equity instruments, I can help you negotiate the terms and ensure that any financing documents accurately reflect your agreement.
- Real estate investments. I will help you negotiate the sale or purchase of commercial real estate and will prepare any documents necessary to complete a commercial real estate transaction.
- Dissolutions. I handle all matters related to the termination of a business, from the winding down of corporate affairs to buyouts.
- Bankruptcy matters. As a former clerk to a federal bankruptcy judge, I understand the bankruptcy laws. Whether your company needs protection under Chapter 7 or Chapter 11, or you are a creditor in a Chapter 13 proceeding, I will protect your interests.
Commercial Litigation
When business disagreements cannot be resolved amicably, litigation may be your only option. Whether it's a breach of contract action or unfair competition, I will represent your company in court, in depositions and any other proceedings.
