Corporate Governance

Advising Business Clients in Corporate Governance Matters

Corporate governance is the mechanism of rules, practices, and processes by which a corporation is controlled and directed. The framework of governance establishes the rights, duties, and responsibilities granted to different participants in the corporation.  A solid corporate governance creates a system of checks and balances between corporate participants and is essential to the proper functioning of the organization.

The attorneys in our Business/Corporate Law Practice have decades of collective experience advising New Jersey business clients on a full range of governance matters.  Our lawyers work with boards of directors, managers, officers, shareholders, and members to help ensure that they have strong and proactive governance practices and policies in place to ensure compliance with ever-changing governmental standards. We offer a wide array of services to meet our business clients’ needs, including counseling clients on matters involving:

• Business formation
• Establishment of governance systems
• Stakeholder agreements
• Compliance reviews of corporate books and records
• Compliance with reporting obligations and disclosures
• Creation of business codes of conduct
