All your hard work has paid off, and you have made it to the mountaintop. We can help make sure that you keep the assets that you have worked so hard to obtain.
Cease and desist agreements
Is someone using your intellectual property? Is a former employee violating his or her non-competition or non-solicitation agreement? Is another business illegally interfering with your business relationships? We can help draft cease-and-desist agreements to make sure your business interests are protected.
Defense against state and federal regulatory actions
Every business has to comply with state and federal laws. Sometimes these laws apply to all business entities, such as laws that prohibit discrimination in the workplace. Sometimes these laws are specific to your business. And at other times, there may be additional regulations depending on where you sell your product. We can help protect and defend you when receive complaints from state or federal agencies.
Indemnification agreements
You are willing to provide a service for your customer, or your supplier, but you are unwilling to take the risk involved. Perhaps you can have the best of both worlds. We can help you provide the service while still limiting your exposure.
Litigation support
You do what you can to try to stay out of litigation, but sometimes it is impossible to avoid it. We can work with your outside litigation counsel through all phases of the discovery process to help keep costs down, while ensuring that your litigation counsel receives the necessary documentation and strategy needed to properly defend your company.
Termination, non-competition and non-solicitation agreements
Separating from your employees is a part of every business. Different states have different protections when you terminate your employees. We can help draft termination and separation agreements that are state specific. Perhaps you want to ensure that your employee does not take customers away from you. We can also help draft non-competition and non-solicitation agreements that are specific to the state in which your employee works.
Uniform Commercial Code protection
Are your products stored at your customer’s location before your customer pays you for them? Does your supplier store your products before your supplier ships them to you? Or perhaps your products are stored at a third party’s facility. Have you thought about what happens if a creditor seizes the location? We can help you secure your property through UCC protection.
