Longview, Washington Business and Commercial Lawyers

Local attorneys providing commercial law services to small and large businesses in southwest Washington, including Longview, Woodland, Vancouver, Centralia, Chehalis, and Kelso Washington, Wahkiakum County, Cowlitz County, Lewis County, Clark County, and Pacific County.

Whether you are planning a small business in your garage or undertaking a multi-million dollar venture with a group of partners, it's important to choose the right business structure. Choosing the right business structure can protect you from liability and also save money on your taxes. Committing yourself personally to a business enterprise or partnership can lead to devastating financial consequences.

At Reitsch, Weston & Blondin, P.L.L.C., we help business owners through the process of planning and creating limited liability corporations (LLCs), partnerships, S corporations and other types of business structures. We will help you explore all of the options available to your business. We also advise business owners about directors' and officers' liability, dissolution, franchising, reorganization, trade association membership and activity, joint ventures, mergers, acquisitions, divestitures, business successions, and shareholders' rights.
Once your business is up and running, we provide ongoing commercial law services such as:

• Negotiating and drafting contracts
• State filings
• Record keeping and annual meetings
• Sales and acquisitions of businesses
• Franchising
• Dissolution of businesses
• Partnership disputes
• Commercial litigation

Because of the wide range of business law services we provide, we often serve as corporate counsel for firms that do not have an in-house legal department. We have extensive experience in regulatory matters and transactions involving insurance and reinsurance companies. We have served as counsel to major national and international companies. Our specific areas of expertise include regulatory issues before the State Department of Insurance; corporate restructurings and equity changes; investments, securities, and banking matters; and reinsurance and insolvency issues.

We encourage you to review the credentials of business and commercial lawyer Gerry Reitsch. You are also invited to contact us. We look forward to the opportunity to meet you to discuss possible representation.

Every case is important to us.
