Once a business is up and running, our lawyers provide counsel on a broad range of legal issues that arise in day-to-day business operations, such as:
We serve in the capacity of in-house counsel for firms that are too small to have an attorney on staff. We also assist in-house counsel of medium-sized firms with specific transactions or litigation. We believe in preventative law for our business clients who are often too busy to focus on their internal affairs, such as corporate record books and standard contracts. We agree that it's much better to help clients build a fence at the top of a cliff than to meet them at the bottom with an ambulance. David Howell is a former in-house counsel for an electronics firm in San Jose. Mr. Howell handled internal legal matters as well as supervised the work of outside firms for major litigation and intellectual property matters. Avoid expensive litigation.
