San Antonio Limited General Counsel Attorney
Bexar County Small Business Lawyer Providing General Counsel Services
Businesses of all types and sizes will need to address multiple legal issues on a regular basis. While larger companies may have a legal department that can handle these concerns, small or mid-size businesses may not have the resources to keep an attorney on staff. However, engaging the services of a business law attorney for each individual legal issue can be an inefficient way to handle these matters. Ideally, a business will want to determine the most cost-effective way to address its legal needs, and it can do so by working with a lawyer who can serve as general counsel.
The law firm of Geoff Mayfield, Attorney at Law provides limited general counsel services to help businesses resolve their legal concerns and build successful strategies. Geoff believes in forming relationships with businesses and taking the time to understand their needs and goals. Whether you are a small business owner who needs to address specific legal issues, or you need help managing ongoing concerns that affect your business, he can advise you of your options and help you take the right steps to achieve your business goals.
General Counsel Services to Address Business Needs
When serving as general counsel, Geoff can assist with multiple types of business law issues, including:
- Business structure - During the initial process of business formation or in situations where owners or partners may need to restructure a company, Geoff can help determine the best type of business entity to use, and he can ensure that a business is registered properly. He can also help a business put the correct policies and procedures in place based on how it is structured.
- Contracts - Geoff can help a business perform a contract review to identify any issues that may need to be addressed or determine when contracts may need to be updated or renegotiated. He can also assist with drafting and negotiating different types of contracts, ensuring that a business's rights will be protected and making sure all parties understand their legal obligations.
- Employment-related issues - To ensure that a business can avoid disputes with employees, Geoff can review company policies and employee handbooks while also addressing issues such as whether workers should be classified as employees or independent contractors.
- Regulatory compliance - A business may need to comply with multiple laws and regulations at the local, state, and federal levels. Geoff can make sure businesses meet their record-keeping requirements while advising them on how environmental regulations and other laws may affect them.
- Commercial real estate - With his experience in commercial real estate transactions, commercial landlord/tenant disputes, and other matters that affect property owners or tenants, Geoff can help a business take the correct steps to address issues related to commercial leases, real estate development, and other related concerns.
- Business litigation - When a business encounters legal disputes, Geoff can help determine the best options for resolving these matters, including negotiating settlements, using mediation, or taking legal action to protect a company's interests.
