Business Law

If you are considering hiring an attorney to help you with important legal matters in Philadelphia County, you need someone with the right business experience to meet your needs. We provide a wealth of experience to our clients and can help with numerous legal matters including company formation, code enforcement, and issues with municipalities.

Business Formation Assistance

When you are getting started in the real estate market, it is important to have the right business structure; our experience includes:

• Partnership Formation — we can assist you with drafting a partnership agreement to ensure your rights are protected. In addition, we help with zoning permits and other documents required by the county, state, and local municipalities. With the changes in the Partnership laws that went into effect in April of 2017, it is vital you work with an attorney to ensure your agreements meet the requirements of the new rules.
• Corporation Formation — in some instances, forming a corporation may be more suitable for their needs. Corporations have an easier time raising capital, offer more protection from debt, and do not expire if one of the principals decides they no longer want to be part of the business. We can help you draft the required legal documents, help with state filings, and ensure your business interests are protected.
• Limited Liability Company (LLC) Formation — unlike a general partnership where each partner has equal liability, an LLC provides protection to partners since they are only liable up to the amount of their investment in the business. For many, this difference can be significant. We can help ensure your LLC documents meet the requirements of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

Real Estate Business Issues

We can help defend property owners in cases involving Act 135 Pennsylvania Abandoned and Blighted Property Conservatorship Act. We have also provided legal guidance to business owners, non-profit companies, and neighbors who may be impacted by properties found in violation of Act 135.

When you need assistance with any of these matters, or are facing legal actions pertaining to code enforcement, or the Neighborhood Blight Reclamation and Revitalization Act, contact the Law Office of Henry M. Clinton, LLC immediately. We have the experience, knowledge, and skills to handle your business legal matters.
