Services

SK advises clients on corporate formation, completes required filings and publications, drafts operating, shareholder, and other formation agreements, advises clients on ownership options including decision-making structures, insurance considerations, business development, contract and purchase order creation, financial considerations, and operational best practices. We work closely with each client’s financial and accounting advisors to make sure that every “i” is dotted and “t” is crossed.

With 2 decades of combined legal experience , SK’s principals are well-versed in contract interpretation, negotiation, and client advisement. Our objective is to facilitate our client’s wants and needs without becoming a barrier to progress. We quickly identify and focus on your areas of concern or interest and work collaboratively with opposing counsel to achieve a mutually beneficial arrangement. Our job is to be a part of our client’s progress and success, and to prevent litigation by addressing foreseeable ambiguities that can lead to future disputes.

Our resume of experience is deeply rooted in real estate transactions from all perspectives. We have successfully acquired, disposed, leased, zoned, financed, and developed hundreds of millions of dollars of real estate in the past two decades. SK has experienced nearly every possible oddity when it comes to these transactions and has the experience and confidence to navigate these “surprises” smoothly, effectively, and to our client’s benefit. We have represented landlords and tenants in all areas of real estate including multifamily, commercial, industrial, medical, mixed use, and municipal. We know how to quickly identify potential lease or purchase agreement traps and areas of risk quickly. Together with our outside title examination and real estate closing partners, we provide a cost-effective, full-service suite of services for any or all aspects of your real estate needs.

Our principals are proud of our track record achieving comprehensive solutions to potentially litigious disputes in a cost effective, collaborative manner. We do our best to resolve issues before they require arbitration, mediation, or a courtroom. Our practical approach immediately allows us to pinpoint the areas of disagreement and work quickly towards mutually acceptable solutions.

Risk mitigation is a core part of our DNA. We work with our clients to ensure the right amount of insurance coverage is in place, that standard contract forms include the appropriate coverage requirements for business partners and vendors, and that contracts include sufficient risk transfer language to ensure our clients are protected with the most effective cost structures.

SK provides comprehensive advisement to businesses of all sizes and shapes, including establishing strategic growth initiatives, facilitating succession planning and ownership changes, and any needed or strategic updates to corporate structure. We are skillful in mergers and acquisitions as well as financial repositioning and financial negotiations.

At our core, SK’s niche skillset pertains to assisting our clients with construction-related legal issues. Through our affiliate, Bellwether Advisors, LLC, SK’s principals have nearly two decades of hands-on experience with the construction industry. From negotiating vendor agreements to ensuring thorough risk transfer and communication between construction and design professionals, to assisting with long lead item management and pre-construction materials acquisition, SK has both legal and practical experience to maintain project momentum without sacrificing our client’s financial position. We are experienced in handling construction defects, labor issues, project documentation, and interfacing with municipal building and permit departments to ensure a smooth process all around. Our track record completing complex projects from the construction site confers SK with a unique expertise in managing construction law issues to avoid costly and time-consuming litigation, while making sure our clients are protected at all times.
