Business Law

White Plains Business Attorney

Tilem & Associates, PC is committed to providing exceptional legal advice and representation to businesses throughout the New York metropolitan area. We are committed to providing personal representation in an area of the law that is too often impersonal. We understand that litigation is a part of business. However, our objective is to minimize our client’s exposure to litigation when possible.

Types of Business Law Cases We Handle

From our White Plains office, our business attorneys work closely with our clients on matters like compliance issues, business contracts, business and corporate governance, employment practices, and employment contracts. In addition, we have experience handling a variety of transactional work for our clients, including commercial real estate matters.

We also work closely with clients on business succession planning issues. Typically, business succession planning involves family-owned or closely-held companies. While these plans can be complex, when they are handled by an attorney familiar with the business and with the law, they can minimize tax liabilities and protect assets from creditors.

Commercial Litigation & Business Disputes

While we strive to place our clients in a position where commercial litigation is unnecessary, business disputes are, sadly, part of operating a successful business. Since we work closely with our clients, we are in an exceptional position to effectively and efficiently handle commercial litigation. Our lawyers possess the skill, knowledge and experience to litigate the most intricate and complex business law cases.

Few business lawyers possess the extensive litigation experience that is possessed by the lawyers at Tilem & Associates. That experience can be utilized in many ways. Firstly, by knowing what has been the source of disputes in the past, our lawyers are in the best possible position to avoid disputes through careful drafting of documents that avoid the pitfalls we have seen others fall into. Secondly, when a dispute does arise, our attorneys have the experience, skill and knowledge to prevail.

We are Prepared to Defend You in Court

When disputes between or within businesses arise, we attempt to reach a resolution through settlement, mediation and negotiation—reducing the cost, time and uncertainty of litigation. Our lawyers are both exceptional negotiators and exceptional trial lawyers, and our goal is to guard our clients’ long-term and short-term interests. If we are unsuccessful in negotiating a favorable settlement, we will vigorously protect our client’s rights in court.

Our lawyers take the time to understand the facts and the law surrounding each case and to develop a winning strategy to get you the best possible outcome.

We are well-equipped to handle business disputes and civil law suits involving:

• Breach of Contract
• Business Torts
• Civil RICO
• Real Estate Litigation
• Employment Litigation
• Complex Litigation
• Federal Civil Litigation
• Construction Litigation
• Corporate Dissolution
• Tax Litigation
