NYC Business Law Firm, Perdomo Law, Conveniently Located in Manhattan, New York City, NY
The Business Lawyers at Perdomo Law help company owners figure out the legal documents that come along with owning and operating a business. We can help clients understand negotiations, health and safety regulations, license applications, and International contract law. Protecting your interests with legal representation is something that is up to the company owner, but publications like Forbes and Entrepreneur recommend having one on retainer or seeking advice through consultations when dealing with situations involving contracts and employee disputes.
What is Business Law?
This branch of the legal field deals with the ins and outs of running a business. Some corporations can be large like enterprises that perform operations around the globe, or small firms that have one location. Our Business Lawyers help entities file contracts, establish employee and subcontractor agreements, protect intellectual property, and represent the company in a court case. Perdomo Law can also ensure companies are compliant with federal, state, or local requirements.
Any person or entity that has stock or financial interest in a business should seek legal counsel to ensure that his or her needs are met and protected. Starting a new business is often overwhelming and full of legal documents like agreements between the company and suppliers, delivery agencies, employees, shareholders, and community organizations. Legal counsel can identify which ways to register a company, as a sole proprietorship, a non-profit organization, or a corporation. Our attorneys can offer advice about sexual harassment, employee rights, and tax filing are ways that a business attorney can advise owners on their best course of action.
Other examples of how we can help you start, grow and protect your business include:
- Property Rights
- When working in a media field, an agency that uses social media marketing, or a business that relies on design, making sure that the information, drawings, formulas, and other company documentation remain the property of the LLC or single owner firm is crucial. Having someone that knows the ins and outs of the business and products that the company creates is helpful should a dispute arise.
- Commercial Leases - Real estate transactions often benefit the property owner. Even if your firm is going to buy the building or land outright, it makes sense to hire a business attorney like Francelina M. Perdomo Klukosky to review all the contracts for accuracy and hidden liabilities.
- Product Contracts - Our business lawyers can read over contracts between the company and other firms that want to buy goods and services to make sure that the interests of the business are safe. For instance, a home cleaning service must understand the implications of a theft charge for employees. Our attorneys can help you understand all viewpoints of the contract.
- Negotiation - Before entering into a contract agreement, the owner will want to understand who is responsible should damage occur to products, items are lost, and funds do not match. Perdomo Law can assist and prepare CEOs and management personnel for contract meetings with suppliers, real estate investing, and employee raises.
- Franchise Agreements - Our business legal team can review and draft franchise contracts defining who takes care of equipment maintenance, negotiate a fair compensation rate, choose who is responsible for new product creation, marketing, implementation, and more.
- Employment Contracts - Knowing what an employer expects of new hires is vital to establishing a good relationship. Advising the owner about things that the employer must cover is one way our law firm can help a new or established company improve labor efficiency and profitability. Our attorneys also make sure that the business owner has protection should an employee file a lawsuit for wrongful termination, unsafe working conditions, or sexual harassment.
- Service Agreements - Our firm can help you identify responsibilities such as: Who pays for repairs, what maintenance duties are the company responsible for when leasing equipment, and how often service inspections should happen.
- Non-Competition Statements - When an employee loses a job at a company that has industry secrets, it is vital that the worker does not expose these proprietary details to other firms. Some agencies add a non-compete clause in employment contracts to protect the business. Drafting and enforcing these legally binding documents is the job of our business lawyers.
- Non-Disclosure Paperwork - Drawing up papers with the correct terminology to protect the company and the work of employees who are under contract with the firm is a huge help for business owners when using a lawyer. The paperwork has to be very specific, stating exactly what is or is not acceptable. Businesses often put a lawyer on retainer to draw and maintain these documents.
- International Contracts - Working with other countries and businesses outside of the United States takes knowledge of legal requirements in both locations. Negotiations between parties are often difficult because of the difference between business operations, laws, and expectations. Having an experienced International business lawyer on retainer is a must for companies that operate out of the U.S.
- Cross-Border Transactions - Our business lawyers offer similar assistance when selling products outside of the country. Knowing who is responsible for damage to cargo in transit helps the enterprise owner apply for the right insurance policies.
- Hiring New Staff - Depending on the position, compensation, and your performance expectations, our law firm can help you with Non-disclosure statements, management contracts, sub-contractor agreements, background checks, and filing for workers' compensation coverage if needed.
- Obtaining Liquor Licenses - Establishments wishing to serve alcohol need a liquor license to operate. Our attorneys can assist company owners who want to get this approval.
- Food Service - Serving food has many legal considerations, including employee age requirements, health and safety standards, food containment procedures, temperatures for serving food, and when food needs discarding, just to name a few. Companies involved in food service should have a lawyer on retainer.
- Spanish Legal Translation
- Perdomo Law is fluent in Spanish and has many clients in the Dominican Republic. We can help you prepare the necessary documentation, ensure proper translation, and provide you with contract and negotiation services in Spanish.

Business owners that refrain from hiring a lawyer or putting one on retainer can put the business in great danger. Liquor and food licenses require strict oversight and management of the health issues. Losing these items can shut down a business resulting in a significant loss. Some companies never recover. Lost funds, going to court, and paying substantial fines are other possible results of not having a business law firm like Perdomo Law to rely on.
