A Guide To Business Formation And Litigation For Entrepreneurs

At Powers & Rogers, PLLC, we bridge that gap. Our experienced attorneys provide comprehensive legal guidance and advocacy, tailored to the specific needs of entrepreneurs and business owners of all sizes.

• Strategic Entity Selection: We go beyond simply suggesting LLCs. We delve into your business goals (growth plans, funding needs) and governance structure (owner involvement) to recommend the most suitable entity (sole proprietorship, LLC, C-Corp, S-Corp).
• Compliance Navigation: We handle the intricacies of entity formation for you, ensuring adherence to state regulations. This includes filing necessary paperwork, drafting articles of incorporation (corporations) or operating agreements (LLCs), and establishing essential corporate governance frameworks.
• One-Stop Shop Convenience: Located near a renowned accountant, you can address both legal and tax concerns efficiently in one location.

• Tailored Agreements for Every Need: We draft, negotiate, and review contracts (partnership agreements, vendor contracts, non-compete agreements) specific to your unique circumstances, ensuring clarity and addressing potential loopholes.
• Protecting Your Interests: We prioritize enforceability and risk mitigation in every contract. This includes clear breach of contract clauses, dispute resolution procedures, and intellectual property protection, safeguarding your business from potential legal issues.
• Experience You Can Trust: Leading our contract team is founding partner, Kara B. Rogers, Esq., a member of The National Order of Scribes and Order of Barristers. Her drafting expertise ensures your contracts are ironclad.

• Dynamic Approach: We offer a comprehensive range of dispute resolution options tailored to your situation and desired outcome. Whether it’s negotiation, mediation (facilitated settlement), binding arbitration, or litigation, we guide you towards the most efficient and cost-effective solution.
• Cost-Effective Resolutions: Founding partner, Robson D.C. Powers, Esq., has been selected eight consecutive years for inclusion on the Super Lawyer Rising Star list, and prioritizes finding cost-effective solutions without compromising your position.
• Protecting What Matters Most: Our assertive advocacy ensures your rights and business goals are upheld throughout the dispute resolution process, minimizing disruption and maximizing recovery.

• Identifying Potential Threats: We work collaboratively with you to assess potential risks across your operations, supply chains, and contractual relationships. This includes legal compliance issues, data security breaches, and potential disruptions from key vendors.
• Customized Risk Management Strategies: We develop a plan to minimize exposure to these identified liabilities. This plan can involve risk avoidance (implementing best practices), risk transfer (insurance, contractual indemnification clauses), and contingency planning (creating backup plans for unforeseen circumstances).
• Peace of Mind for Long-Term Success: Proactive risk management safeguards your assets, ensures business continuity, and fosters a culture of risk awareness within your company.

• Ongoing Legal Support: We provide comprehensive legal counsel as your business grows and evolves. This includes guidance on corporate governance, contract negotiation and review, intellectual property protection, and employment law compliance.
