Business Law

Many businesses choose to take on certain responsibilities without the assistance of a Jackson, Mississippi Business Law Attorney.

Lindsey McGee Turk of Turk Law Firm, PLLC utilizes her prior business experience to offer comprehensive legal services to established business owners as well as individuals interesting in starting a new business. Business law is much broader than many people realize, and a qualified and seasoned Mississippi Business Law Attorney can address most, if not all, of your business-related legal needs.

Mississippi Business Law Attorney – Individual Practice Areas

A skilled Mississippi Business Law Attorney is able to represent clients in a variety of ways. It is essential to have a well-rounded attorney that can address all of your legal needs so that you do not have to rely on multiple attorneys for different business-related legal matters. Having one qualified Mississippi Business Law Attorney saves you time and money while reaching the best result possible for any given situation. Lindsey McGee Turk of Turk Law Firm, PLLC provides business law representation relating to matters including, but not limited to:

  • Commercial Litigation – Business disputes occur on a regular basis, and regardless of whether you wish to file suit against another individual or business, or you or your business is facing a lawsuit, you will need strong legal representation to ensure you have the best chance possible of prevailing. Seasoned Mississippi Business Law Attorney Lindsey McGee Turk will work with you to determine what steps need to be taken to increase your chances of either receiving what you are entitled to as a plaintiff, or successfully defending a lawsuit that was filed against you. Most business disputes are resolved outside of the courtroom after mediation between the parties, and/or settlement negotiations. However, some business disputes do go to trial, and if your particular business dispute must be resolved by going to trial, Lindsey McGee Turk will use her trial skills to prove your case to a judge if your trial is a bench trial, or a jury of your peers.
  • Construction Law and Litigation – The construction business involves a multitude of legal issues that should be evaluated by a Mississippi Business Law Attorney. For example, contractors often need permits to perform work at a given location, and this contractor may also need legal assistance if an employee or independent contractor is injured while on a construction site. Lindsey McGee Turk can help you resolve construction disputes, as well as help you plan how to address potential issues in the future. At Turk Law Firm, PLLC, we will ensure that you are fully aware of what legal issues may arise in your construction business, and what steps you can take to protect your business.
  • Contracts – All legitimate business transactions should be governed by a mutually agreed-upon written contract. Contracts provide a way for businesses and individuals to meet their business goals and simultaneously preserve their rights and interests. No matter what business transaction you are entering into, you should consider how and why a written contract is essential to protect your business should a dispute arise in the future. Many individuals and businesses lose everything as a result of not documenting their rights and interests in a written contract. While oral contracts are valid under Mississippi law, written contracts are proof in themselves of each party’s rights and interests. Lindsey McGee Turk drafts contracts for clients on a regular basis, helps her clients interpret contracts, and always ensures that her clients’ expectations are met and wishes are satisfied once a written contract is finalized and agreed-upon by all interested parties.
  • Contract Disputes – All business owners hope that contractual disputes never arise, but sometimes disagreements over the meaning of a contract do happen. As such, having a skilled Mississippi Business Law Attorney representing your contractual interests increases the chances that you will be able to resolve your contractual dispute in the most reasonable way possible to ensure your rights and interests have not been compromised. Depending on how complex the contract dispute is, your matter may be resolved in a very short period of time, or may take a little longer after negotiating with parties to the contract. At Turk Law Firm, PLLC, attorney Lindsey McGee Turk possesses the necessary knowledge and experience to provide her clients with outstanding legal representation to take contractual disputes head on and help businesses move on as seamlessly as possible.
  • Business Formation – In Mississippi, there are a variety of ways to form a business entity. Many individuals who wish to form a small business are able to complete forms that allow them to become registered Mississippi businesses. However, forming a business does not only involve filling out forms, and it is important that all business owners and individuals seeking to form a business have a full understanding of what should be done to ensure the smooth establishment of a new business entity. Lindsey McGee Turk helps her clients form corporations, limited liability companies (LLCs), partnerships, limited partnerships (LPs), limited liability partnership (LLPs), personal corporations (PCs), among other business forms under Mississippi law. No matter what direction you wish to take your new business, Turk Law Firm, PLLC can help you complete the business formation process in a cost-effective and efficient manner.
  • Employment Law – Having a well-rounded staff is essential to a successful business or organization, and both employers and employees benefit from having a good working relationship. However, employment disputes do arise that may require the assistance of legal counsel. Further, it is always a good idea to have a Mississippi Business Law Attorney help you draft employment agreements, ensure that your employment practices are in compliance with Mississippi law, as well as a variety of other employment-related matters.
