Hatch, Little & Bunn, LLP
has represented
individual and business clients in the
Triangle area of North Carolina for almost half a century. An important part of
our success is developing legal strategies
that protect our clients' interests and
provide them with the tools to make informed
decisions. We provide corporate clients with
the experience to help them select the
appropriate business formation (corporation,
Limited Liability Company, partnership, etc.),
develop and negotiate solid contracts and
agreements, collect monies owed and provide
general legal counsel.
Our
attorneys are business thinkers who advise
clients based on our knowledge of the law,
industry and the client's bottom line. Our
team of attorneys represents a wide range of
disciplines, and as a result our clients
receive multiple perspectives on their legal
and business strategies. In addition to
Corporate Law, our practice areas include
Administrative Law, Bankruptcy &
Collections, Criminal Law, Family Law,
Landlord/Tenant Law, Municipal/Zoning Law,
Environmental Law, Personal Injury, Public
Utilities Law, Real Estate, and Estate
Planning and Administration.
Corporate
law addresses the formation and operation of
corporations. Federal and State laws regulate
the way corporations are created, organized
and dissolved. A corporation is formed as an
"artificial person" who can enter
into contracts, sue or be sued, and perform
the other duties required to successfully
operate a business. The major benefit of
forming a corporate entity is that individual
owners or shareholders of the corporation are
shielded from personal liability. Functioning
as a legal "person," corporations
have successfully claimed human and and
constitutional rights.
As
experienced corporate attorneys, we assist our
corporate clients in all aspects of their
operations and daily transactions. We also
support newly forming companies. Acting as
corporate counsel, we offer the advantages of
responsive service and results, without the
inherent costs of in-house counsel. We ensure
that accurate corporate books and records are
kept; call regular board meetings and annual
shareholders meetings; provide yearly and
periodic reports to shareholders, and advise
directors and shareholders on their rights and
responsibilities. Hatch, Little & Bunn, LLP
provides business clients with other
