Running a business effectively requires discipline, time and passion for your work.  At Buchanan Law Office, we realize the amount of effort and pride our clients place in their businesses.  We pride ourselves in our ability to develop creative and sophisticated solutions to the many legal issues that face businesses and corporations, both ordinary and extraordinary.  Often, this includes litigation–avoidance counsel which can short circuit business disputes before they arise or get out of hand.

As a business law attorney, Stacia Buchanan frequently handles matters of contract negotiation and development.  These matters include drafting letters of intent, acquisition agreements involving asset and stock purchases, merger agreements, construction agreements, multi-party agreements, joint venture agreements, licensing and distribution agreements, limited partnership agreements, financing documents such as loan and security agreements, shareholder agreements, employment non-disclosure, non-compete and confidentiality agreements, securities filings, drafting closing documents and necessary legal opinions, preparing press releases and handling other public disclosure matters.  We understand how important relationships are to running your business, and we are thoughtful in drafting all documents with an eye towards fostering those long-term relationships.
