Private & Family Business
Graydon attorneys have been serving the needs of family and private businesses for more than 145 years. Over the years the types and manner of services provided have evolved, but the core of our services have remained the same – commitment to be the trusted advisor for our clients to help solve problems and take advantage of opportunities.
A Multi-Disciplinary Approach
While most private business clients develop a primary contact at the firm, business owners appreciate the ability of Graydon attorneys with experience in various substantive areas to work together effectively and efficiently, to produce the best outcome for our clients. Our representation of private business clients begins with counseling regarding business entity and capital formation, continues throughout the operations of the business and often involves planning for the succession or sale of the business.

- Business formation and growth planning

- Financial, succession and tax planning
- Employment related matters
- Commercial contracting
- Intellectual property and technology
- Disputes and litigation
- Buying and selling businesses
- Ownership and management succession
