THE CREATIVE’S COUNSEL LEGAL SERVICES

CORPORATE LAW (Yes, we know you expected this—but what does it really include?)

Corporate law is an extremely broad area of practice—which is one of the reasons we love it so much! Bassford Remele can handle most legal matters related to your business, and if we can’t, we have a vast network of trusted professionals who can.
Some clients come to us for one-off business matters, while others rely on us as their outside general counsel.
What is an outside general counsel? It’s an attorney who isn’t an in-house employee but brings the experience and strategic insight to manage a wide range of business and legal matters, whenever you need it—without the cost of a full-time lawyer. With us, when you call, we’ll already understand your business’s “what” and “why,” giving you personalized legal guidance that cold-calling a lawyer just can’t offer.
Interested in forming a charitable business model? We can help with that, too! From Non-Profits and B Corporations toother creative business structures, we assist in incorporating your passion for giving into your entrepreneurial journey.

Building your team? With whom? What roles? What are you entrusting each person with? Sorting through classification and determining what each position entails is commonly misunderstood, so let us help you sort through it.

Are you building with hopes to sell? or merge? or pass down your business? It is commonly thought that mergers and acquisitions are reserved only for large companies. However, M&A takes place at every size and for a variety of reasons. As a business owner it is important to understand the importance of M&A, how it may benefit your company, and the factors that should be considered when considering this path. The Creative’s Counsel is here to assist you with any questions that you may have, whether it be looking into the far future or a merger happening just around the corner.

Do you have your sites set on growth? It is never too early! The wonderful thing about being an entrepreneur is having the ability to grow in your own time, at your own pace, and how best suits you and your vision. We work with our clients to understand the various paths to growth at many stages in their business models, so that when the time comes they are comfortable identifying a timeline and the support needed to do so.

Many of our clients have come to us to draft the real estate documents necessary to sell and buy property, especially when they aren’t involving a realtor.

Are you looking to lease an office space? Find a new spot for your business? Simply wondering what it would take to own your own space? The Creative’s Counsel is able to offer transactional and concept advice, review real estate contracts and financing documentation, or find an expert who may be best able to assist you with your specific real estate need.

Oh how we know that disputes are never fun, but inevitably they arise. We have a wonderful team of litigators who can guide you through disputes of all natures.
