Business and Corporate Law

Corporate Law
H&W partners routinely serve as counsel to and members of the boards of directors of numerous not-for-profit organizations and have expertise in all aspects of related legal guidance and corporate governance. H&W can incorporate and form not-for-profit organizations (whether formed as corporations or charitable trusts) and guide the client in obtaining tax exempt status as well in complying with additional federal and state governmental filing requirements. H&W’s business organizations and trusts and estates experts work closely with the not-for-profit clients, whether in setting up the organization, in assisting in structuring the transfer and distribution of assets, in addressing the legal issues that arise in the course of the day-to-day operations of the entity, and even in the disposition of assets and winding down if ultimately dissolution is desired. Our range of clients in this area includes private schools, museums, libraries, historical preservation societies, land conservancies, religious corporations, cemetery associations, civic associations, private-public governmental partnerships, historic house associations, as well as private and public family charitable trusts and foundations.
Intellectual Property
H&W has experience in forming and representing numerous types of business organizations – whether corporations, LLC’s, partnerships, LLP’s, professional corporations, joint ventures, or not-for-profit corporations and charitable trusts. Our clients include privately-held and family-owned corporations, some of which have been in the same ownership for many generations. We regularly establish and represent start-up and spin-off entities, and we have significant experience in representing U.S. subsidiaries of foreign corporations, including several of the largest multi-national corporations in the world. The day-to-day corporate practice may include advising, negotiating and drafting in connection with setting up a business entity and selecting and creating the most appropriate vehicle; identifying and preparing the general corporate and business operating documents; negotiating and preparing commercial agreements and related documentation relating to sales and purchases of goods and products or services with purchasers or suppliers; establishing, reviewing, amending or terminating distribution, representation, agency and partnership agreements; negotiating and drafting lease or purchase agreements for corporate offices or manufacturing or warehousing facilities; asset or share purchases or sales of businesses; sales and buy-sell agreements among shareholders; opinion letters in connection with transactions; matters relating to hiring and termination and other matters relating to employee relations, including preparation of handbooks, manuals and policies; defense of wrongful termination and harassment or other employment-related claims and counsel; trademark, trade name, copyright and intellectual property protection and filings; secured and unsecured transactions; as well as advice in connection with the numerous other corporate, administrative, regulatory, environmental and governmental issues arising in the normal day-to-day course of business. These are merely a few typical examples of this kind of issues we regularly help our business clients successfully and expeditiously resolve.

Through our extensive experience in representation of municipal governments, we have expertise in real estate, land use, zoning and related environmental and land use litigation matters, including zoning and planning board hearings and appeals, summary proceedings, Article 78 proceedings, tax certiorari proceedings, nuisance, encroachment, adverse possession and Section 1983 civil rights claims. H&W partners also routinely and successfully handle all aspects of many different kinds of commercial civil litigation claims, including multi-party and high volume document cases as well as much smaller, single-party actions. The nature of such claims may cover contractual breaches, misrepresentations, claims seeking injunctive relief or specific performance of a contract, realization on judgments, trusts and estate disputes and claims before the New York Surrogate Courts, bankruptcy (creditor’s rights) claims, intellectual property infringement and proprietary information disputes, wrongful termination or harassment claims, product liability claims, defamation and libel claims, among many others.
