In the 21st Century, deals move quickly and the pressure to perform is real. Technology has increased efficiency, but it has also increased expectations.

Palmer & Manuel’s business lawyers understand the pressures our business clients’ deal with, both in day-to-day operational problems and in closing major transactions. For over 25 years, Palmer & Manuel’s business attorneys have represented individual entrepreneurs as well as public companies, having successfully handled innumerable small deals and major corporate transactions.

The issues we deal with are numerous. It may be as simple as choosing the right type of entity. On the other hand, it may be a situation or dispute so vital and complicated that the survival of the business depends on a successful outcome.

Whatever the challenge, Palmer & Manuel's business lawyers are ready. Palmer & Manuel’s business lawyers have successfully handled the following types of matters:

• Contract review and drafts
• Mergers and acquisitions 
• Sale of an industrial manufacturing/fabrication business
• Counsel to a multiple state, multiple entity organization operating over 100 retail service locations
• Complex corporate reorganizations
• Confidentiality agreements
• Formation and counsel to numerous corporations, general and limited partnerships and limited liability entities
• Shareholder buy/sell agreements

While Palmer & Manuel's business and corporate lawyers use the technology of the 21st Century, in many ways we do business the "old fashioned way": we work to get to know our clients, to understand their concerns and to be sensitive to the pressures that confront them. Since we are not a 100-lawyer firm, our clients usually work with the same lawyer or group of lawyers throughout a project or transaction, and are not passed down the hall to another lawyer they have never met.
