| Business Law |
One focus of Whalen & Associates is assisting professional immigrants to obtain the right visa, such as a Treaty Trader visa or L1 Intra-company transfer visa. However, because of our experience we now represent all types of privately held business entities, including, corporations, limited liability companies, limited and general partnerships, joint ventures, and sole proprietorships. We have significant experience in handling an array of business and financial transactions, including business formations, mergers and acquisitions, contract negotiation, drafting and review, and counseling clients about all aspects of antitrust and trade regulation matters.
Our transactional practice extends to every significant legal event in a client's business. In addition to traditional areas of our business law practice, Whalen & Associates offers particularized counseling to entrepreneurs and start-up firms involved in emerging technologies, including the negotiation of licensing agreements, software contracts, and distribution agreements. Some of the areas in which we assist our clients are: |
- Business Plans for Treaty Investors
- Incorporation and Limited Liability Companies
- Partnerships and Joint Ventures
- Contract Negotiation and Review
- Employment and Consulting Agreements
- Protection of Trade Secrets and Intellectual Property
- Employment Issues
|
| By working with clients on the daily legal issues pervasive in today's business climate, our goal is to insure our clients avoid the costly mistakes and errors which occur in the absence of effective representation. However, if litigation is necessary, Whalen & Associates is equipped to prosecute or defend our clients either in court or arbitration proceedings. |
