You and your management will have to deal with multifaceted problems in steering your business through many different transitions or even challenging economic times. The Philadelphia resignation and transition planning lawyers at the Jacobs Law Group, the law firm for businesses in the Greater Philadelphia Area, can provide you counsel and assistance through all of these business transition issues.
Whether your business is a startup, family-owned business, or private equity backed company, you will have to deal with many issues including borrowing debt or raising capital to fund the company’s growth, dealing with the economic problems of too much debt, deciding on mergers, acquisitions or sales, dealing with partnership issues, terminating founders or other key managers, and even facing difficult business succession issues.
These multifaceted problems often involving numerous parties and factions, owners, senior management, key employees, lenders, investors, customers, vendors, employees and even family. In some cases, these can truly be “bet the company” type decisions.
If the problem is not effectively managed, whole groups of working owners and key employees may elect to leave the company, causing you an extreme business emergency.
The experienced and skilled attorneys at the Jacobs Law Group (JLG), your Philadelphia lawyers, can help you navigate through these dangerous waters. At JLG, our attorneys have decades of helping our clients deal with all sorts of issues that come up in the life of a business.
For example, advising parties in transitioning out unproductive partners, expelling parasitic partners, dividing companies when the owners could not work together any more, or generational succession issues or even advising directors on their legal obligations in dealing with sensitive information on corporate wrongdoing that has come to their attention, we have a wide variety of experience that can help you ride out the storm. At JLG we understand business, even being involved in other ventures and gaining hands-on business experience; including successfully selling an ongoing business.

We have a unique experience in:
We bring skilled business and legal judgment honed by years of practice to facilitate and ease our clients through difficult career transitions in their lives. We understand that breaking the bonds that tie you to a long-time employer or professional practice firm and to your old colleagues or partners is never an easy task, nor undertaken lightly.
But when that organization is no longer suited to your practice, your career, or your ambitions, a move forward must be taken. We provide keen legal insight of the laws applicable to your situation whether found in Employment Agreements, Non-Compete Agreements, Partnership Agreements, Stock Award Agreements, Invention Agreements, Profit Sharing Plans, statutory enactments, or under common law. We take into account not just the legal obligations under contract but we also analyze the fiduciary duties for our clients who are officers and directors and how they impact the career choices they urgently desire.
But we don’t leave the analysis there. We analyze the business options open to you considering the likely outcome of any legal battle. We also assess how your old firm or employer will initially view the situation and consider tactics to bring them to an amicable arrangement.
