Albuquerque Lawyers for Business Formation and Operations

People form business entities for many reasons. For some clients, this may be their first business and we help them choose a business organization that both protects their assets from personal liability and provides tax advantages. Operating a business in your personal capacity without any business structure, or committing yourself personally to a business enterprise can lead to devastating financial consequences. Some business clients form a new business entity to keep the results of a new venture separate from an existing business. Others want to start a venture with a group of partners. As business lawyers, we help clients in Albuquerque, New Mexico decide whether they want to operate as a Closely Held Business, Limited Liability Company (LLC), Partnership, or Corporation.

The type of entity chosen for a business potentially affects every aspect of its operations. We advise our clients on director and officer liability, business dissolution, franchising, reorganization, trade association membership and activity, joint ventures, mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, business successions, and shareholders' rights.

We also represent businesses in jury trials and non-jury trials involving causes of action arising out of personal injury, business torts, professional malpractice, breaches of contract, partnership disputes, employee lawsuits, shareholder disputes, and other contract disputes.

When companies are faced with major lawsuits or financial crises, we can advise the business about all of their options, including filing for bankruptcy protection. We are also skilled in the collection of debts owed the business.
