We have particular expertise in complex business and technology transactions, including, intellectual property licensing, medical imaging technology, physician and hospital billing and coding, technology development agreements, software licensing and work for hire, consulting agreements and big data analytics. Our experience in these matters allows us to provide not only comprehensive legal advice, but also practical business counseling to small and mid-sized companies.

To meet the needs of owners of closely-held businesses, we leverage the experience of attorneys in the firm who practice in employment, tax and estate planning services. We provide advice and counsel in matters ranging from business formation and choice of entities to the drafting of critical documents such as shareholder agreements, operating agreements, executive employment agreements, stock option plans and non-competition and non-disclosure agreements. Since we also represent many family-owned businesses, we frequently assist with succession planning and draft buy-sell arrangements that allow for an efficient transition of a business from one generation to the next.
