If there is to be more than one owner of a business, it is critical that the owners understand their respective rights and responsibilities. The best way to achieve that is to have a comprehensive contract to govern the business that binds of all of the owners. Mark S. Ondrejech is very experienced in drafting (and litigating disputes over) these types of contracts. Depending on the entity that the owners choose, this contract will be called either an Operating Agreement, Partnership Agreement, or Shareholders Agreement. The business attorney will also counsel his client how to act in accordance with such a contract.

A business attorney does more than simply handle intra-entity governance. Instead, a business attorney will also help a business client enter into contracts with their employees, customers, landlords, and vendors. The business lawyer may also be engaged to keep the client in compliance with governmental laws, rules, and regulations. When a business grows or seeks to negotiate acquisition by another company, a business attorney will negotiate and draft Acquisition agreements for Asset Purchase Agreements, Mergers, or Consolidations.
