Getting down to business

Businesses operate in a climate that demands instant results, real-time feedback, and around-the-clock access to essential information and advice.

Businesses also face constant challenges as a result of changing technologies and market forces, global competition, and a growing and complex web of legal requirements and regulations.

Sustained success is a result of knowing how to navigate and manage these factors effectively for the best results.

At Burns White, we apply customized thinking to our clients’ business challenges and deliver practical solutions. We generate tangible and cost-effective results for a diverse group of clients, ranging from Fortune 500 companies to individual practices and proprietorships.

Our attorneys understand business from the inside out. With a diverse range of backgrounds, many of us possess direct experience as owners, board members, and officers of various business entities. This unique perspective enhances our ability to assist our clients in meeting their business goals and objectives, while successfully navigating their unique legal issues, and minimizing exposure to legal risk and unnecessary litigation.

  • Capital formation: accessing capital through private and institutional equity, debt, and loan financings
  • Corporate governance: providing consultation and advice regarding corporate governance and management issues, board policies and procedures, conflicts of interest, fiduciary duties, indemnification rights, and D&O insurance
