What Does a Business Lawyer Do?

Although the word lawyer conjures up a myriad of stereotypes that have persisted over the decades, the truth is that there are many types of lawyers who practice in different areas with varying skill sets. While some specialize in prosecuting or defending criminals, others advocate for environmental issues or civil rights. In addition, many lawyers go through their entire careers without ever entering a courtroom.

A business lawyer, on the other hand, takes care of the legal issues involved in operating a business. Whether it’s a startup or an established company, a business lawyer can be very helpful for almost every aspect of running a business.

Defamation Against Businesses

Consumers use the internet to make a variety of decisions, including what products to buy and what professionals to hire. During their research, many consumers go online to look at reviews the business has received on local business directories like Yelp or Google+. Online reviews can have a huge effect on the success of your business so it is important to understand your rights should your business receive a negative one. If your business has received a negative online review, it could be that you and your business are being defamed. Before taking action, you should consider using any dispute or review process provided by the review site.

Types of Contracts and Business Agreements

When entering into business with any individual or organization, clear communication is key. No party wants to take legal action against another, but unfortunately, such action becomes the only form of recourse when business contracts and agreements are either not followed or simply don’t exist.

But for those new to business contracts, choosing the appropriate document can be a stressful task. With these simple definitions from a top business attorney in NJ, doing business and avoiding litigation will become a much more surmountable undertaking.

This guest post was written by Efraim Landa

Efraim Landa is a venture capitalist and the founder of Effi Enterprises.

When talking about a private equity fund, usually they tend to be partnerships that have been formed by a PE firm. Private equity funds can either be for general investments of businesses or they can also fund in different industries. Most of the equity funds you see these days last around 10-13 years, which is usually an entire term, but they do vary by business. When you get a private-equity fund the fund is closed when you the business have distributed all the funds back into the account for the partners of the fund. As you can see this is a very useful and efficient way to get money for something like a small business or start-up, but they tend to be difficult to get unless you have a projected plan of action to show the partners you would/could/will make money from the business so that they can get their money back. Private Equity funds tend to focus on one of the following:

Types of Unions

In the United States, we have many different labor unions. While there are categories like Private, Public and Craft Unions, there are also smaller groups as well such as Manufacturing Unions, Building Trades, Transportation Unions and Service Industry Unions.

Legal Ethics for Paralegals

Legal ethics are obviously related to the legal system, but they are a set of standards and guidelines in where conduct is measured. Most anyone in the legal system will use NJ legal ethics, but they vary depending on the position and title you ascertain. For example, paralegals and lawyers both have rules of conduct, but because lawyers tend to deal more with clients one on one, they have different rules of conduct than a paralegal. But, the same sentiment remains – to keep the client protected via confidentiality, as well as keep the lawyer or paralegal protected as well. There are by far and wide, more rules for lawyers than paralegals, but here are a few things you might want to look over as far as legal ethics for paralegals.
