Our business clients frequently call on us for advice on labor and employment, technology, data privacy and security, and the protection of trade secrets and intellectual property.

Selling a business, acquiring another business or joint venturing with another entity may be the most important, complex and stressful business transactions that owners and executives will face in their careers. From due diligence review, drafting and negotiation of the purchase, sale or joint venture documents, to closing the deal, the experienced attorneys at HolmstromKennedy will provide you the legal advice you depend on during these transactions. We have represented clients in a variety of industries, including manufacturing, health care, sports, real estate, retail and various technologies. Our firm also has experience providing compliance advice relating to corporate, bankruptcy, employment and benefit issues when needed.

The representation of tax-exempt organizations is a regular, substantial part of our practice.

We routinely provide advice on corporate governance, executive compensation, conflicts of interest, political activity and other “hot-button” issues.
