Dealing With A Family Business Dispute: Protecting What Is Rightfully Yours
A family-owned retail business came to JCS Law Corporation after siblings fought over who should manage the company and how much control each sibling should hold. With conflicting interests and emotions running high, the family feared that litigation would tear at their business, their relationships, and their finances. In a free 30-minute consultation with JCS Law, Jonathan Sievenpiper, J.D., listened to the family’s concerns and noted several important priorities from both a business and family perspective.
To help them resolve these issues outside of court, we participated in a series of carefully crafted negotiations-balancing lawyering experience with family sensitivity-and tracked steps toward consensus by drafting a new shareholder agreement, clarifying roles and responsibilities among members, and guiding the parties through a dispute resolution process. The business continued, family relations remained intact, and the time and expense of litigation was avoided. Our clients praised Jonathan for showing them how even complicated legal concepts could be broken down in terms they could understand and for leading them to arrive at an effective, practical, and enduring conclusion.
Estate Planning Victory: Securing A Family’s Assets
“A recently retired married couple from Brentwood reached out to JCS Law Corporation for estate planning support. They were worried about ambiguous wills and the prospect of future conflict amongst their adult children. During his first consultation, Jonathan Sievenpiper went through their records and discussed the necessity of a full estate plan.
Working together, we outlined tailored wills, durable powers of attorney, and advance care directives for them. Explicit instructions were set in their estate plan including how their assets are distributed, considerations they have made regarding guardianship of minors, as well as their wishes concerning medical care. They are feeling relieved and grateful knowing that they are keeping their family from unnecessary confusion or conflict. Our friendly, step-by-step process empowered them to make wise and confident choices.”
Helping a Local Business Owner Get Started Right
A passionate entrepreneur had a vision for opening a boutique fitness studio in Nashville-but got lost along the way with all of the steps necessary to legally launch her new business. She needed direction on what business structure to select, how to properly draft and negotiate a commercial lease, how to protect herself from liability, and more. JCS Law Corporation offered her a free 30-minute consultation to understand her needs and provide a legal roadmap.
We took her through the steps of forming her LLC, reviewing and negotiating the commercial lease, drafting waivers to maximize her protection from liability, and advising her on employment contracts and California regulatory compliance so that she could build her business. Three months later, her studio was open for business. She still seeks our counsel on all legal issues. She thanked us for providing our guidance and relayed that our ability to break down complex issues into easy-to-follow steps while providing local knowledge were vital to her ability to open her doors.
Solving A Real Estate Transaction Problem
“An engaged couple encountered problems while purchasing their first home in Nashville. Title flaws and last minute contract amendments put the deal’s closing in jeopardy. JCS Law Corporation immediately identified legal issues, discussed such issues with everyone involved in the process, including agents, lenders, and seller’s attorney.
We reviewed the title documents thoroughly, resolved the liens encumbering the property, and negotiated the terms of the amended contract to ensure that our clients’ interests were protected. The couple purchased their home on schedule as a result of prompt action and effective negotiation. They commented that our approach of constant communication and providing them with the comfort that they had an experienced advocate made the entire process manageable.”
Representing A Client In A Civil Litigation Case
A local resident was sued for breach of a business contract. There were large damages being claimed, and our client was concerned about financial and reputational damage. Jonathan Sievenpiper met with the client to review the facts, the contract, and possible defenses.
Evidence was gathered, witnesses identified and testimony prepared, and a complete defense made ready. Through negotiation, we were able to help our client resolve the dispute through a favorable settlement prior to trial-resulting in significant savings of time and money. The client was thankful for our candid advice and guidance through the process, including the peace of mind it engendered along the way.
