Areas of Practice

Corporate & Business

We cater to a broad range of business clientele, from entrepreneurs and start-ups to mid-level, closely held companies. There are critical decisions to be made at both the inception and conclusion of a business, and those decisions require qualified advice.

 

Bank & Finance

We represent clients in regulatory and transactional matters involving banks and non-bank financial institutions such as hedge funds, loan workouts and restructurings, debt and equity offerings, state and federal regulatory compliance, and mergers and acquisitions.

Entertainment

With more than 30 years of experience, the lawyers of GLG represent established professionals (independent producers, agents and managers), creative talent (writers, directors and performers) and rights owners in the global, ‘transmedia’ marketplace.

 

Litigation

We understand any business dispute, including between partners, shareholders or with a former employee, can be extremely damaging to a business. GLG has extensive experience providing strategic representation and effective resolutions for companies facing complex legal disputes.

Estate Planning

We provide you the tools necessary to secure and protect your hard-earned business or investments. We advise you in the preservation of your wealth for subsequent generations. Each particular asset – whether it is a family business, partnership interest, family residence – is different, and we understand each unique situation.

 

Trust Administration

The firm provides individualized attention to a new trustee in the performance of his or her duties. We assists a trustee or executor in creating the very transparency that the beneficiaries seek, annual accounting, fiduciary tax returns, and reports to beneficiaries.

“The Guzman Law Group provided first-class legal representation and advised the process every step of the way.”
