Albertville and St. Michael Business Contract Lawyer

Contracts

As a business owner, you need to write and negotiate contracts on a regular basis. Contracts are an official agreement between two parties that often have a significant impact on your business for many years. It is easy to overlook or misunderstand certain language, or to neglect to include important wording in a contract. Our business contract attorneys can help you with wording so you understand the contract language, and the contract wording is favorable to you.

Protecting you and your business

Ensure peace of mind in your business with our business contract review. It is crucial to protect yourself from vendors, customers, landlords, and other parties in your contracts. Even if you respect and trust the company with whom you are doing business, a poorly drafted or unfair contract can cause financial losses and may damage your business relationship with the other party.

In addition, you’ll want to protect your business internally. Something as simple as hiring an employee can have drastic effects if not done correctly. Minnesota is an employment-at-will state. It is therefore important that your offer letter or employee handbook is not construed as an employment contract. You work hard to develop and maintain your customers. A competently drafted non-compete agreement can prevent your employees from stealing your customers. You also want a well-worded confidentiality agreement to protect your customer list, intellectual property and goodwill from former employees, vendors, customers and competitors.

As an experienced Minnesota business attorney, Brian Aho will review and negotiate your contracts to help protect you from other parties taking advantage of you.
