Serving the Legal Interests of
Closely Held Companies
A closely held company is a private business
entity that is owned, operated and controlled
by a small group of individuals (shareholders).
Unlike publicly traded companies, ownership
(stock) in a closely held business is not
available to the general public. The vast
majority of closely held companies are family
businesses.
If you want to form a Closely Held Business, it
is vital that you speak to an experienced
business lawyer who fully understands the
advantages and disadvantages inherent to
such a business entity, as well as the best
ways to minimize tax liabilities and how to help
shareholders establish an effective business
succession plan.
Although there are numerous advantages to
establishing a closely held company, having a
comprehensive shareholder agreement in
place is essential in case disputes arise
between the shareholders. Beck & Christian
handles a wide range of issues for Closely
Held Businesses, including:
•
Drafting, Negotiating & Reviewing Business
Formation Contracts
•
Drafting, Negotiating & Reviewing
Shareholder (Buy / Sell) Agreements
•
Acting as General Counsel on Behalf of the
Closely Held Company
•
Providing Tax Advice to the Business
•
Defending State & Federal Tax
