Providing Sound Business Advice to San Diego Business, Real Estate and Healthcare Companies
Any San Diego business, real estate venture or medical practice should have an experienced local attorney to serve as their business “General Counsel.” What is a general counsel and why is it important for your LLC or corporation? A company’s business general counsel is the lead attorney for all legal matters that relate to the business. As your general counsel, the Watkins Firm attorneys serve not only as your “registered agent”, but manage all legal work including contracts, business documentation, disputes, or lawsuits that may arise.
Larger corporations have their own internal legal team, and the General Counsel will serve as the leader of that group. Small to mid-sized businesses do not need to go to the expense of having a dedicated internal legal team. However, they are required to operate and conduct business in accordance with all federal, state and local laws, ordinances and requirements. As your general counsel, the Watkins Firm will advise you on all legal matters, and will serve as an advisor who can help your business to avoid liabilities and potential pitfalls to maximize the success and profitability of your company.
Your General Counsel is like an experienced guide who knows the area well and helps you to take the shortest and most effective route while avoiding dangerous situations and traps that will delay your progress.
Why Does Every Olympic and Professional Athlete Have a Coach?
Here’s an important question: Why does every Olympic and professional athlete have a coach? These are some of the highest performance and wealthiest of individuals in the world. They are already experts at what they do. They are highly skilled and disciplined. So why would they need a coach?
Now ask yourself this question: Who do I trust most when I have questions about my business, my company, my industry? Every business owner and corporate executive has those “moments” when they’re faced with a challenge or a seeming brick wall. Would you like to know how others have successfully solved that puzzle or gotten over, under, around or through that wall?
How do you expand what you are doing to a larger market, a wider market, a new market? How do you acquire the assets, people and existing operations necessary to move forward? Should you consider “this” decision or “that” option? How do you avoid the types of challenges which cause 80% of the other companies to fail?
