Experienced Business Law Attorneys
At law office of Lewis, Overbeck & Furman, LLP, our lawyers have an in-depth background in business law — they have worked with business leaders from a variety of industries, such as manufacturers, service providers, dance studios, electrical companies, and plumber unions.
Our approach is simple. We cultivate close business relationships with our clients to effectively guide their decisions. All of our cases are handled by a lead attorney who works closely with accountants, actuaries, insurance consultants, architects, engineers, and other specialists on complex cases.
Specifically, we have a strong background helping business leaders form limited liability companies, partnerships, as well as C, S, or LLC entities. When working with clients to start a business, we ask several questions, such as:
- Who are your customers?
- Who will own the company?
- Will business be conducted overseas?
- What will be the company's liability exposures?
This detailed analysis helps us minimize financial and legal implications to protect a company's assets. We also assist businesses entrepreneurs with tax planning – since the type of business chosen will determine how the company is taxed.
