At McLario, Helm & Bertling, S.C., we rely on our more than 60 years of experience to help businesses start out on the right foot. Our business attorneys can assist with all the details of your business formation and organization.

If you need advice about starting a business, selling a business, or acquiring assets, speak with a business lawyer at our office in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin. We have been advising businesses in the Metropolitan Milwaukee area for more than 60 years in matters of business organization and acquisitions, and our attorneys know how to help you create a strong foundation for your company.

Business Organization / Formation

The business entity you choose can have a significant impact on everything from your tax liability to the long-term risk exposure and potential growth of your business.

We can work with you as you start your business and explain the benefits and risks of each type of business formation option available, and eventually help you select the right classification for your needs. The business attorneys at our Menomonee Falls law office can then draft the agreements for your operating arrangements and guide you in the negotiation of:

• Real estate transactions
• Supplier contracts
• Distribution or licensing agreements

Our goal is to secure your position in the marketplace by making sure your business gets started on the right legal footing. 

If you are planning to start a family enterprise, we can help you establish your business with an eye toward the future. A business organization attorney at our firm can help you plan for succession within the family and protect the assets of the business in the event of divorce, disability, and death. With our experience in estate planning and family law, you can feel confident that your family business will be in good hands.
