The documents your business needs depend on its structure and operations, but many businesses benefit from formation documents, operating agreements or bylaws, customer and vendor contracts, employment agreements, confidentiality agreements, and policies that comply with Illinois law. Having these documents prepared or reviewed by an attorney can help prevent disputes and clarify expectations.
Any contract involving large dollar commitments, long-term commitments, ownership interests or complex legal terms is a good candidate for an attorney to review. Generally, it is much cheaper to check contracts before signing than it is to correct problems after they have been signed.
Yes. Carefully drafted contracts, clear business policies, good corporate governance and ongoing legal advice can prevent many disputes. An attorney cannot eliminate risk entirely, but with a little planning you can often avoid misunderstandings, and if a dispute arises, put your business in a better position.
