 The firm’s attorneys guide start up and established business owners through formation, small and multimillion dollar transactions and varied business contracts. Customized documents On a regular basis, we deliver practical business and legal advice grounded in decades of experience. We provide start up business clients with individualized and comprehensive analysis of the business laws that surpasses the generic cookie cutter and minimalist Secretary of State forms. While the Secretary of State forms are sufficient to meet the Louisiana form requirements, there are additional documents needed to protect personal assets from business debts.
Alford & Alford assists business owners with capitalization documentation, customized bylaws, stockholder agreements and operating agreements. With consultation from Alford & Alford, business clients compare tailored company agreements with the default rules cast by the state legislature. Consider, for example, the effect of a divorce or death of an owner on the other owners or viability of the business. Business owners can either choose the defaults set by law or create their own rules to cover these and other critical contingencies.
Business contracts Businesses also look to Alford & Alford to craft and analyze agreements with employees, vendors and customers. The types of contracts include, but are not limited to:
Financing tranactions During the life cycle of businesses, many owners buy, sell and/or lease assets, equipment, inventory, office space and/or real estate. With knowledge and practical insights acquired from years of experience, Alford & Alford is positioned to lead businesses on both sides of these transactions.
Construction Industry Contractors are granted lien rights that only a few others are similarly afforded. This creates a unique contractual relationship between contractors and property owners.
Alford & Alford has represented both contractors and property owners in all phases of the construction process including such matters as the initial negotiations, drafting the construction contract, resolution of issues that arise during construction, filing and defending liens and representation in construction litigation.
