Experience is The Key Ingredient

Contracts are the Foundation of Successful Business Transactions

Contracts are the foundation of any successful business transaction, and these important documents govern everything from your transactions and relationships with suppliers and customers alike as well as your employment relationship with those who work for your company.

Choosing the right San Diego business attorney involves identifying and connecting with a legal partner who can cover every aspect of your business.  You want to avoid the pitfalls which have befallen other companies and protect against disputes and litigation.  When a dispute arises, you want a business attorney who takes a unique approach to business disputes which is specifically designed to accomplish your goals while resolving any dispute quickly and in a cost-effective manner.

Pro-Tip: “This is about where their business is going to go. It’s about the journey.  When they come in, they tell us the story and we ask them questions about what kind of business this is going to be – we want to know from a lawyer’s perspective. Is this a high risk business? Is this a trending business? Is this a highly regulated business, those kind of things so that we can provide sound counsel and advice. And then we ask about other things and what they’re doing and just to get a gauge on how sophisticated they are or how new to business they might be so we can help.

We think about how to structure a business so that if they need to bring people in down the road, it’s set up to do that. Or more importantly, how’s this all going to end? Exit strategy.

We talk about all of those things. We talk about one year, five year, 10 year plans. We just try to get a feel for where they’re going, what their game plan is. And if they don’t have a game plan, we share how other companies have done it and give them a menu of things that they might want to think about.” – Dan Watkins, Founding Partner
