We can then draft and file the documents needed to form your new entity and help with fictitious name filings as well as applying for necessary business licenses. For both new and existing businesses, K&S can provide legal support for your fundraising and investment-related agreements. In addition, K&S can assist in setting up key corporate governance infrastructure and important recurring agreements and contracts
- Business/Commercial Law - K&S attorneys have significant experience with negotiating and documenting contracts of all shapes and sizes, from small (under $1 million), medium (between $1 million and $10 million) and large (over $10 million). And, while we don't specialize in business litigation, K&S can assist with pre-litigation analysis and planning when actual or potential business disputes arise. We can also refer you to a number of excellent commercial litigators in California if your matter ends up in litigation.
