Working on a complicated deal?

Business owners encounter a wide range of challenges and opportunities throughout their businesses’ life cycle, so they’re required to transact with other business owners, financial institutions, and government agencies to keep the business up and running. These business transactions, however, can be tedious. So it’s in a business owner’s best interest to team up with a competent business transaction lawyer to expedite the process.

Get your deal reviewed by an experienced attorney

Business transactions affect your assets, liabilities, and equity. Simple negotiations and processing of permits have financial repercussions; they can either make or break your company’s reputation and finances. For that reason, it’s crucial to keep an eye on each and every action that happens inside and outside the company. It’s the business owners and shareholders’ job to protect the company’s market and financial position. 

 

These business transactions and documentation are not purely internal, though. Owners and shareholders can handle simple paperwork on their own, but the company needs to get out of its comfort zone sometimes. The company should make transactions with other institutions to comply with the law and ultimately reach greater heights. Hence, it is advisable to hire and retain a business transaction lawyer when doing in-house and third-party transactions. 

 

As owners and shareholders know the ins and outs of their company, they need an expert who also knows the ins and outs of the business law. And Todd Jackson, one of the leading business lawyers in Tennessee, is the exact definition of that expert.

Small and medium businesses, unlike huge corporations, usually handle internal business transactions. Still, all business owners should hire their own business lawyers to acquire legal protection.

Things to consider with Business Transactions​

Tennessee Law

All your business transactions in Tennessee will be reviewed, approved, and renewed by state authorities and local regulatory bodies, so you’ll need competent business lawyers in Tennessee to comply with local laws. For doing business transactions, understand and navigate Tennessee's laws on antitrust (for fair and competitive business landscape), trade practice, Pyramid or Ponzi schemes (the practice of illegally luring investors and partners), interest rate, tax evasion.

Risks

Financial risks should be your main concern when doing business transactions, especially if you own a commercial business. Owners, shareholders, investors, and stakeholders may lose money over failed business transactions. That’s why a business lawyer should evaluate every step you make before sealing deals.

Federal Law

Your business and commercial transactions are also governed by federal laws. You need to make sure that your day-to-day and company-wide business transactions with employees, shareholders, partners, and investors don’t violate federal laws on employment, licenses, taxes, advertising and marketing, privacy, health care, and intellectual property.

Costs

You need to consider your internal and external business transaction costs. Internally, you’ll handle transaction costs for acquiring human resources, licenses and permits, and legal protection. Externally, you’ll mostly handle transaction costs for production, third-party services, and rent or mortgage.
