Houston Business Lawyer

Do you own a business, or are you thinking about acquiring one? Without a Houston business lawyer representing your interests in a critical business matter, all sorts of things can go wrong.

We don’t mean to scare you. We’ve just seen it all as a firm with extensive experience in offering business law services. Had some of our clients come to us for legal services earlier, they may have saved a world of confusion.

Common disputes and problems in business law include:

  • Employment disputes
  • Partnership disputes
  • Shareholder disputes
  • Employment agreements
  • Contract disputes
  • Business torts
  • Disputes over purchasing assets

In the worst case, you can find yourself on the wrong end of a costly business lawsuit.

Fortunately, a skilled Houston business lawyer can advise against risks and exposures that may elude you. In addition, our attorneys can ensure that your business transaction goes smoothly. Whether you’re an individual, small company, or large business entity, our Houston business law firm can help. A free case evaluation is just a phone call away.

What If You Don’t Have a Business Lawyer?

It’s always wise to have an experienced business attorney guiding you in legal business transactions. But what if you decide to go it alone without an attorney? Well, legal challenges are inevitable. What follows are a few areas where we’ve seen problems.

Business Partners and Co-owners

When a business is created, you may have co-owners or partners help with marketing, accounting, financial matters, and more. Therefore, the entity formation documents should fully explain each business partner’s duties. Establishing the business relationship between members going forward is often overlooked.

The operations agreement also should explain how to resolve conflicts with the partners or co-owners. It’s essential to have an attorney with legal knowledge review this agreement to ensure all bases are covered. Experienced Houston business attorneys can foresee potential internal disputes a mile away. Let legal counsel from The Titus Law Firm help you keep these at a minimum.

Health and Safety

Health and safety conditions are sometimes not a priority in a new or growing company. Accidents may happen that risk the business. Was enough liability insurance purchased to protect the organization?

The entire operation can be at risk without a Houston business attorney overseeing these types of critical legal aspects. All it takes is one personal injury lawsuit, product liability, or premises liability claim to cripple a new business. Make sure you’re covered by speaking to us about your options.

What Our Houston Business Lawyers Do

You can rely on our Houston business lawyers for the following services (as well as others).

Business Transactions

Are you preparing for a business acquisition or merger? Our attorneys know how to negotiate, draft, and close all kinds of business transactions. If you try to do this on your own, you will quickly find that you are way in over your head.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is business insurance planning?

This planning is important because it includes insurance against losing a vital person in the business. This insurance policy can be used to provide cash to the company while you replace the deceased person. A business attorney can provide business insurance planning to ensure your business survives the loss of a key executive or owner.

How do I know if a person is an employee or an independent contractor?

There is no test to determine if the person in your company is an employee or contractor. Instead, the IRS looks at your whole relationship with the person to make that determination. You can ask the IRS for a determination with Form SS-8.

Can I call my new business a ‘wholesaler’ to attract more clients?

You only can call yourself a wholesaler in Texas if you don’t sell to the public. It’s illegal to advertise a company as a wholesaler if they sell to the public. See Sec. 17.11 of the Texas Business and Commerce Code.

What should I do after I form a corporation online?

Many new business owners think they are ready to do business after receiving their charter. Next, the board of directors should call and hold their first organizational meeting. After that, they should adopt bylaws, nominate and elect officers, and handle any other business. A business attorney can assist you with completing your first corporate meeting.
