Business Formation & Governance

SBLS assists entrepreneurs and business owners with foundational business documents, including:

• Entity selection guidance
• Operating agreements
• Partnership agreements
• Founder agreements
• Ownership agreements
• Initial corporate documents
• Internal governance documents

These documents establish how the business is owned, managed, and operated.

As businesses grow, informal agreements often need to become formal legal structures.

SBLS helps businesses address questions such as:

• Who owns the business?
• How are decisions made?
• What happens when an owner wants to leave?
• How are profits and responsibilities divided?
• How are disputes handled?
• What protections exist for the company and its owners?

Services include:

• Member agreements
• Shareholder agreements
• Buy-sell agreements
• Management agreements
• Amendments to governing documents
• Ownership restructuring documents

Businesses evolve. Legal documents should evolve with them.

SBLS helps businesses navigate changes such as:

• Adding new owners or partners
• Changing ownership structures
• Bringing on investors
• Creating new business relationships
• Expanding operations
• Updating outdated governance documents

A growing business needs internal systems that support consistent decision-making.

SBLS can help create documents such as:

• Internal company policies
• Confidentiality policies
• Contractor policies
• Business procedures
• Governance documents
• Other operational agreements
