Business Law
Businesses do better with an experienced lawyer on their side. We assist our clients with their corporate structure, ongoing governance and internal relationships – the internal foundation that drives the business. We also assist with the external commercial transactions – the actual business of our clients that drives their profits. Our business clients hire us to be their advocate, their consultant, and their advisor so they can make solid, well informed business decisions.
Family Enterprises
Each individual and generation in a family-owned enterprise wants to feel valued, heard, and respected. Burroughs Law understands family dynamics and listens closely to what our clients need. On the technical side of things, we provide advice regarding all aspects of corporate governance and commercial agreements as they relate to family-owned businesses.
