The needs of closely held businesses can be considerably different than those of larger companies, and we excel at meeting these needs by providing an ideal blend of practical business executive experience, and knowledge of business, estate planning, and tax law.

At Mooney McGinn LLP, our attorneys have years of experience counseling closely held and family owned businesses and owners. We offer companies and owners the attentive, personal service they deserve. We provide the full depth and breadth of services our clients require to address their specific corporate and family issues that are often delicately entwined.

We have the experience required to resolve tough problems effectively and efficiently, including: formation strategies; ownership issues; determining how to measure value and appropriately reward those who create it; developing succession planning strategies, estate planning strategies and business strategies; developing estate plans that ensure the appropriate family members have the control and value to secure the future success of the business.

We can also help assure that appropriate labor and employment practices are in place, especially critical when a business is growing rapidly or changing its structure.

We understand the infinite complexities of estate and tax planning related to closely held and family owned businesses. We can help anticipate and address issues in advance, thereby diminishing the likelihood of disputes between family members, financial institutions and taxing authorities in the future.

We have experience and knowledge in:

  • Business advice & planning
  • Estate planning
  • The use of complex family and charitable trusts
  • Gifting strategies and discounts
  • Tax structure and strategies
  • Labor and employment issues
  • Business valuation calculations
  • Compensation plans
  • Real estate matters
  • Succession planning
  • Bank and venture capital financing
  • Mergers and acquisitions
  • Sales advice and counsel
  • Litigation
  • Shareholder agreements, including redemption and cross-purchase agreements
