Areas of Expertise

Small Business Liabilities and Risks

 

Whether you run a clothing store or an eCommerce website, all businesses need to minimize their legal liability and risks. Our managing attorney will assess the structure of your operation, such as its physical or digital space, the types of products you sell, who your consumers are, what type of company you have filed under (LLC, Inc, etc.), and so on. From there, we will tailor the right risk plan, complete with permit applications, insurance policies, and more, so you can worry less about liabilities and concentrate on growing your business.

Contract Drafting and Negotiation

 

Well-written contracts are at the heart of every successful business. If you need help drafting or negotiating contracts, you can rest assured that Shannon Schoultz Solutions will provide the services you need in order to stay ahead of the business curve. We strive to offer our clients high-quality services that are efficient and cost-effective. We help our clients draft and negotiate contracts relating to sales, vendors, real estate. Tailoring each contract according to a project’s scope, size, and budget, we secure the appropriate creative rights for all talents involved.

Partnership and Employment Agreements

 

Many business leaders overlook the importance of choosing a tailored employment contract or agreement and opt instead for generic employment agreements. However, it is essential that the contract your employees sign accurately reflects what is expected of them in your place of business. We can draft both standard employment contracts, specialized agreements for independent contractors, and partnership agreements.

Trademarks

 

Ideas, tangible or not, are the most important things to protect in today’s competitive creative market. With so many channels and constantly replenishing feeds to watch out for, tracing the ownership and originality of a design, brand name, or invention needs the laser-focused eye of a trained attorney. We’ll handle the search, application, and filing process of trademarks, copyrights, and patents.

Digital Media & Technology

 

The internet, software, and technology are so pervasive that we can’t remember having ever lived without them. They make our lives simpler, but behind the curtain are fluctuating challenges in protection and monetization; challenges that our firm stays two steps ahead of. We’ve helped entrepreneurs develop, license, sell, and maintain ownership over their creations. We’ve also negotiated purchasing and partnership agreements for larger investment companies looking for their unicorn.
