Be sure your attorney knows the laws of your state pertaining to these issues.

A corporate lawyer is usually referred to as a transactional lawyer. They deal with legal issues that arise in businesses or with employment issues. Such things as drafting and negotiating contracts; advising on government, commercial, or compliance matters; understanding and processing required forms like business licenses and taxes; and intellectual property are usually part of their portfolios.

A franchise lawyer works in a very specialized area within the established rules of a parent company. McDonalds, for example, is a national franchise in which local individuals buy into the parent company. The franchise allows the business investor to utilize their brand, systems, names, products, and services. The franchise owner purchases the franchise but also shares a percentage of the profits. These contracts can be very complex, and having a specialized advocate on your side can be advantageous.

There are many reasons to engage the services of a lawyer, including (but not limited to) the ones we have covered here. The most important point is to evaluate each potential attorney the same way you would evaluate any other service provider or major purchase. Do they have experience in the area of law that you need? Can they provide positive reviews from past clients? When you meet with them, do they make you feel comfortable and cared for? Do they seem trustworthy? When it comes to navigating complicated legal waters, having the right lawyer can make all the difference.
