Business/Corporate Law

Forming a business and operating it efficiently requires a thorough understanding of the different types of business and corporate forms available and their ramifications for taxes, liability, and other issues. Attorneys at the CVM Law Group focus their practice on advising real estate developers and other companies on the full range of corporate matters, from entity formation to mergers & acquisitions.

Estate Planning
Successful business owners may amass large estates, but often the business itself comprises a bulk of the estate. While the business owner is living and actively managing the company, it makes sense to return earned income to the business to help it grow, but it may not create an estate that has value to the heirs, who may not be capable of continuing the business or even realizing a profit from its sale. Estate planning for the business owner must take special care to be cognizant of these unique circumstances to ensure that the future of the business transpires in accordance with the business owner's wishes. Lawyers at CVM utilize their extensive knowledge of real estate, business law, and tax matters to help clients fashion an estate that meets all of these needs.
