Business Law

Beginning with decisions about which type of business entity to form, our business attorneys take a ground up approach, assisting clients in forming a strong foundation for future business growth. Also serving as general counsel to a variety of established businesses, our attorneys understand that as a business expands, its needs change. Our attorneys regularly assist clients with issues involved with raising capital, administering employee contracts and benefits, negotiating and financing real estate transactions, protecting trade secrets and other proprietary information, drafting and reviewing commercial contracts and structuring tax plans. Our attorneys often provide individualized legal counsel to officers, directors, partners, members and shareholders regarding their legal responsibilities and rights.

With broad experience in business transactions, our attorneys have represented a wide range of business entities, from small enterprises owned by a single individual, to large publicly-traded corporations. However, our attorneys are goal-oriented, and they enjoy the challenge of partnering with clients as diverse in size and composition as the markets in which they compete.

Dougherty, Molenda, Solfest, Hills & Bauer also serves as litigation counsel to numerous businesses in industries ranging from manufacturing to financial services. Our broad experience allows us to partner with clients and provide comprehensive legal services tailored to each business owner’s individual needs.
