Experience
We are experienced litigation and mediation practitioners. Our preference is to reduce the expense, the emotion and the time that court and mediation requires.
The way to do this is by preparing proper agreements prior to any involvement in a business venture.
To that end, please look through the items below. Our documentation is robust and seeks to protect your time, assets and business success from future events.
Every business and every venture is different because of the personalities and needs of the individuals involved. Therefore we do not recommend a template approach – a generalized document may not provide all the protection your individual circumstances require. At Grahame Jackson & Associates, we personalize the documentation for your particular set of circumstances.
