Successfully launching a new business entails numerous important steps, including selecting the best legal entity through through which to operate, the appropriate jurisdiction, and how to best facilitate capitalization and ramp-up. If your business will operate as a limited liability company (LLC) or partnership, it’s also important to have in place an operating agreement or partnership agreement that establishes the rights and responsibilities of all stakeholders.
-
Contracts are the backbone of business operations. Contracts govern the rights and obligations of a business as it interacts with the world, including with vendors, customers, investors, consultants, and other service providers.
Close attention to contract language helps a business achieve its commercial goals. It also helps a business avoid risks and unpleasant surprises.
-
The way a business interacts with its employees is critical to success; without a happy and focused workforce, a business is just a name and a logo. To that end, it’s important to set the right tone from the outset and establish a clear understanding of what a business and its employees should expect from each other. Onboarding materials, employee handbooks, and policies and procedures are just some of the fundamental tools a business can utilize to properly set and manage employee expectations.
Reiland Legal can help your business establish an effective framework for interacting with employees, including reviewing or drafting handbooks, policies, and other documentation.
We can also perform periodic reviews to ensure your business’s employee-facing documentation remains viable in the face of ever-changing legal and regulatory obligations and your business’s evolving needs.
-
Over time, your business may evolve to accommodate new investors, new opportunities, or maybe just a new way of operating.
