Business

For nearly 90 years, we have represented businesses of all sizes, ranging from startups to publicly-traded corporations. The hallmark of this representation is our high level of personal attention. It starts with the problem solving approach our business attorneys take to the legal matters we are entrusted to handle. And it continues with a keen attention to responsiveness and quality of service.

Each of our business attorneys has been trained to counsel business owners on the range of issues affecting their companies. Our ability to spot potential legal issues and resolve them before they mushroom into larger problems makes life easier for our clients. In this sense, we pride ourselves in being the trusted advisors of our business clients.

We understand the economic and business pressures on our clients who operate in an increasingly competitive and expense-conscious business climate.

We are committed to efficiency in all disciplines within our business services practice. Many of our business lawyers are recognized for their capabilities in disciplines such as corporate & securities law, estate planning & probate services, middle market business, real estate transactions, and taxation and employee benefits.

Our estate planning, intellectual property, mergers & acquisitions (M&A) and corporate practices are organized under a single organizational structure called our Business Practice Area. This allows us to bring together all of the varying disciplines necessary to successfully complete any transaction for any business owner - from buying and selling assets or businesses to protecting and acquiring intellectual property to succession and estate planning. At the client level, we take that concept further by creating a multi-disciplinary team around each client. This allows all of the attorneys on the team to have instant access to whatever information is necessary to answer a client's question or to solve the challenge, whether that be tax, real estate, ownership structure, or even review of intellectual property.

In these client teams, one or two attorneys are designated as the leaders and have ultimate control over all aspects of the transaction, staffing of the team and billing/budgeting. These teams meet regularly and coordinate various efforts to ensure the client is served effectively, efficiently and quickly. Given this unique structure, our teams handle transactions ranging from the acquisition and divestiture of companies and/or their divisions, to the divestiture of former corporate headquarters, to the review of the acquisition of intellectual property portfolios, to documenting and coordinating succession planning.

Hahn Loeser has a multi-faceted, multi-disciplined practice which is supported by a wide range of resources including attorneys, paralegals and support staff.
