Experienced Business Law Attorney

Starting a New Business

Perhaps you've worked hard all your life for someone else. Now you want to use the knowledge and skills you've learned over the years to start a business of your own.

The attorneys at the Law Office of Ruth Brock can help you start your business or profession with a solid legal foundation for growth. Working with your accountant or financial advisor, we will help you select the appropriate legal entity, whether it's an "s" corporation, a "c" corporation, an LLC, a partnership or one of any number of available business structures. But that's just the beginning.

Our office takes the time to educate you on actions that could expose your personal assets to the liabilities of your business. We'll help you make the choice that's right for your business, and we're here for you as your business grows.

Advising service-based professionals on the appropriate business structure is also part of what we do, and our attorneys have helped chiropractors, doctors, dentists, engineers and others establish and operate successful local practices.

Operating an Existing Business

In addition to the formation of entities, our office routinely handles annual business updates for our clients. We are available to review contracts and leases and provide legal counsel on the day-to-day questions that arise in any business. With 27 years in the Lewisville, Flower Mound, and Highland Village area, we are especially proud of our long-term relationships with local businesses.

Business Transitions

Perhaps you're a seasoned entrepreneur interested in selling your business. Or maybe you're investigating the purchase of an existing business. Our office has assisted both buyers and sellers in transactions involving pharmacies, specialty stores, medical practices, software development companies, restaurants, oil field service providers, and more.

We are proud of the role we've played in assisting our clients with these transactions. Many of these establishments have become key parts of the local economy. We take the time to learn about how the businesses operate so that we can provide the appropriate drafting and legal advice. The more we know about your business, how it operates, and how you want it to operate, the better advice we can give you.

We also provide business succession planning advice to help families in transferring a business from one generation to the next. We look forward to learning about the workings of your business.

Business Services

We have extensive experience offering business law services to business owners, buyers, sellers, employers, employees and partners, including:

• Business formation documents
• Business entity records maintenance
• Buy-sell agreements
• Partnership formation documents
• Non-compete agreements
• Contracts

Determining Legal Obligations

In business, understanding the legal obligations of the documents which you are given is critical. The impact of a document may continue for many years after the ink dries. A lawyer can review contracts and other crucial documents to advise you of the legal obligations and responsibilities of those signing them. An understanding of the responsibilities under a contract provides confidence and can aid in financial forecasting.

We invite you to contact our office with your business law questions. We look forward to doing business with you.
