Our attorneys regularly counsel clients on any significant changes in federal and state laws that affect their businesses.
We assist clients in forming and operating professional associations. We presently represent many professional groups and have developed a number of fringe benefit programs such as medical reimbursement plans, educational benefit plans, and disability buy-out plans - devices that are also useful in closely-held business corporations.
Among the documents that we prepare for our clients are
- Partnership and limited partnership agreements

- Deferred compensation agreements
- Qualified pension plans
- Profit sharing plans

- Compliance documentation
All documents and plans are tailored to fit the particular business entity involved.
