Fighting for Your Rights

At Jarrett Law Firm, PLLC, whether you are starting, merging, or selling a business, we are here to give solutions for your business legal issues. Creating operating agreements/bylaws, filing the appropriate formation documents with the state, determining your best type of business structure and helping keep your contracts tight are what we do.

We listen to the issues before recommending possible solutions. Our intense legal research ensures that you do not throw money at a problem that can be solved in other ways. No matter the type of business you are in or what stage of development you are at, we have the expertise you need to move your business forward.

If you have questions about your business, schedule an appointment to talk to an experienced business law attorney to get legal counsel. Understanding what your responsibilities are and how the law applies to business dealings can help you protect your interests and your business’s future.

Why Do Business Owners Need Legal Representation?

Business owners are busy. They have clients to meet with and employees to manage and are focused on the growth of their companies. However, running a business also requires a lot of legal work, whether that’s ensuring you choose the proper legal structure for your company or protecting your intellectual property. Houston business lawyers make this easier by taking some of the legal burden, leaving you free to focus on what matters most.

Business transactions rely on an in-depth understanding of state and federal laws and industry guidelines. Companies need to ensure they comply with applicable regulations and laws and have done everything possible to protect their interests through properly executed contracts, tax planning, and exit strategies. An attorney can help with all of this, from handling the day-to-day legal needs of a company to representing you in a contract dispute.

What Is Commercial Litigation?

Commercial litigation is a formal way of referring to a legal dispute between two businesses where at least one party has filed a lawsuit against the other. This usually involves a dispute of some kind, whether that’s allegations of breach of contract or one party is accusing the other of stealing intellectual property. The objective of the lawsuit is for the plaintiff to show that they sustained damages as a result of the defendant’s actions and are owed compensation.

Whether your business is on the receiving end of a lawsuit or is the party seeking compensation, you need the help of a commercial litigation attorney. These lawyers have in-depth knowledge of the state and federal laws that apply to business agreements and transactions and are experienced litigators. They know how and when to attempt to negotiate a settlement and when it’s in your best interests to take your case to trial.

As a business, you don’t want to fight an expensive court battle, but sometimes it is necessary to fight back. Our experience in business law and corporate litigation at Jarrett Law Firm, PLLC, brings you the expertise you need to win against the threats to your bottom line.

Is Mediation an Option?

As a business owner, you know how important the art of negotiation is, and this is true even when it comes to business disputes. Anytime you can resolve an issue through cooperation and compromise, you can save your company money and yourself the stress of ongoing litigation. Mediation offers a way for the parties to come together and have a productive discussion about the dispute, ideally finding a solution that works for everyone involved.

A courtroom battle is only needed when there is no potential agreement that both sides can live with. An experienced business attorney can help you see clearly the merits and potential pitfalls of your case so that you can make an informed decision about litigious measures.

Many times, we can successfully negotiate a settlement before you ever need to step foot in a courtroom. We take the time and put in the work to resolve your issues to the extent the law allows. We can help you evaluate if a potential offer is fair, and we’re prepared to represent you at trial if the negotiations fall through and a trial is necessary.

What Types of Business Law Cases Does Jarrett Law Firm, PLLC, Handle?

When you are looking for an experienced Houston business law firm to represent your interests and ensure your company is covered, Jarrett Law Firm, PLLC, is here to help.

Whether you are facing a corporate drama with multiple players or a small dispute between yourself and a business partner, we have the knowledge to support you in these areas and more:

  • Breach of contract
  • Business torts
  • Investor or start-up disputes
  • Commercial real estate transactions
  • Intellectual property disputes

It is important to understand that there are specific rules surrounding how and when you can file lawsuits related to these issues. For example, Texas law puts a four-year statute of limitations on breach of contract disputes. Your claim must meet these legal requirements and be filed in a timely manner to be heard. Speaking with an attorney is a crucial first step. You will be able to discuss your case, get their legal opinion, and find out what evidence you will need to support your claim.

The best way to protect your business’s interests is to be proactive. Don’t wait until you’re in the middle of a legal issue to seek help. Call our firm at 346-683-2240 to learn more about the business law services we provide and how we can help your company.
