FAQs

What should I include in a business contract?

Key terms vary depending on the deal, but essentials include scope of work, payment terms, timelines, liability limits, and dispute resolution clauses. It’s important to consult with an experienced business attorney before drafting a contract.

What happens if a deal falls through or someone breaches a contract?

The first step is to evaluate the contract and the facts to determine your legal options. From there, we help enforce your rights through demand letters, negotiation, or, if necessary, litigation. We’re prepared to take your case to court and pursue the outcome you deserve.

Can you help my business comply with California cannabis laws?

Yes. We guide cannabis businesses through California’s complex regulatory framework from startup to full operation. That includes local and state licensing, ongoing compliance, business structuring, and responding to enforcement actions.

What do I need to know about buying or selling a business?

Mergers and acquisitions are something we help many of our clients with. We guide you through due diligence, purchase agreements, asset transfers, and closing conditions to protect your interests.

Do you offer ongoing legal support for growing businesses?

Yes. Many of our clients retain us for general counsel services as their business evolves, and we pride ourselves on being long-term partners with our clients.
