Grosskopf & Black, LLC, of Eau Claire, Wisconsin, can assist with a variety of services to small businesses and their owners.

We work with small businesses as they are just getting established. We can help prospective business owners decide which is the best type of entity for their business, such as a Corporation, Partnership, Limited Liability Company, or something different. We can also assist in acquiring an existing business or review contracts, bank or loan agreements, and the like. We will also work with your other professional advisors such as accountants, insurance agents, and real estate professionals as you establish your business.

On an ongoing basis, we can assist with reviewing legal affairs, on a annual or “as needed” basis. We can draft contracts or agreements, or review contracts or agreements that have been prepared for your purpose.

We also assist in you locating people who can provide specialized assistance, such as tax counseling, employee benefits or employee disputes, and even though we often refer those matters to others, we can continue to work with you to assure that you receive quality legal representation in those areas.

In addition, unfortunately, some small businesses fail. In that regard, we can assist with Bankruptcy or Debt Consultation, in a variety of respects.

Fortunately, many businesses succeed, and we can also assist with Estate Planning, specifically for business owner, and as time passes, with Elder Law issues for the business owner and his or her family.
