Business Law encompasses a broad spectrum of practice areas, including business litigation, commercial lending & finance, and many others. EKB knows business.

Our highly experienced team of business lawyers advises on a full range of commercial transactions and corporate affairs to entrepreneurs and businesses, from large, multinational corporations to smaller, independent and family-owned enterprises.

We routinely represent clients in various business transactions, including mergers, acquisitions and sales of businesses. We also assist in advising on and preparing shareholders’ agreements, incorporations, reorganizations or dissolutions of corporations, and formations of partnerships or joint ventures.
