Sweeney Lev attorneys counsel our business clients on a full range of issues and transactions.
We assist in choosing the form of legal entity (e.g. corporation, limited liability company, partnership) most suitable to our clients' needs and prepare all filings and
organizational documentation needed for the formation of these entities. We also counsel clients on corporate governance requirements and assist in the preparation of minutes and
resolutions.
We prepare a broad range of business and commercial agreements, such as international and domestic distribution, franchising, sales agency and supplier/vendor agreements;
copyright, trademark, know-how and patent licenses; research and development, technology transfer and software development agreements; asset and stock acquisition, joint venture,
franchise, lease and finance agreements; and employment and consulting agreements.
We counsel our clients on intellectual property protection, product safety and liability, insurance, marketing and advertising approaches, regulatory requirements, employment
issues, tax planning and evaluation and corporate acquisitions and divestitures.
Our attorneys offer assistance in implementing corporate compliance programs. For example, we work together with our clients to develop policies and procedures to handle and
protect trade secrets and other forms of intellectual property, to comply with workplace rules and regulations, and to address a range of human resource issues. We also guide our
clients in preparing crisis management plans, developing good manufacturing and safety procedures, drafting employee manuals, and putting in place investigative procedures to
pursue charges of misconduct in the workplace.
