Common Texas Business Law Questions

What type of business structure should I choose?

The right structure depends on your goals, tax preferences, and level of personal liability. Options include LLCs, corporations, and partnerships. Our firm can walk you through each and help you select what fits best.

Do I need a lawyer to review business contracts?

While it's not legally required, having a contract attorney review agreements can prevent misunderstandings, protect your interests, and clarify obligations that may not be obvious.

How are business disputes typically resolved?

Many disputes are resolved through negotiation or mediation. However, if informal resolution fails, our firm is prepared to represent you in business litigation.

What should I know before buying a business in Austin?

You’ll want to conduct due diligence, review financials, inspect existing contracts, and assess liability. We guide you through the process to help you make informed decisions.

Can I protect my intellectual property without filing a patent?

Yes. In many cases, trademarks, copyrights, or trade secret protections can apply. We help businesses identify and legally safeguard their intellectual property.
