Business Law

Protecting your INTERESTS

The business attorneys at Smith Haughey are dedicated to protecting our clients’ personal and business interests and to effectively serving as their advocate. Our attorneys have extensive experience in business formation, mergers and acquisitions, real estate transactions, estate and succession planning, labor and employment law, and bankruptcy proceedings. We deliver these services to businesses, nonprofit entities, and individuals.

Our strategy is to work together with clients to develop and identify goals, and to assist in the day-to-day and long-term strategic planning that will help achieve these goals. This approach requires us to simplify complex rules, regulations, and tax laws for clients, and to keep them up-to-date on issues that will affect their business, financial, and property interests.

When family matters impact clients’ business interests – as they often do – we patiently help sort through these issues to resolve problems and to ultimately make the best decisions to achieve client goals. We seek to prevent disputes, but should the need for litigation arise, our unique position as a premier litigation firm gives our clients a distinct advantage.

Above all, we take a personal interest in our clients. We listen and respond to their concerns and we strive to consistently exceed their expectations.

• Business Entity Formation and Governance
• Bankruptcy and Creditor’s Rights
• Employer/Employee Relations
• Business Taxation
• Government and Administrative Regulations
