We primarily assist entrepreneurs and small to mid-size businesses with general counsel services. These include:

• forming, maintaining, and winding down businesses;
• mergers and acquisitions;
• drafting and negotiating contracts;
• advising on compliance with applicable laws;
• handling corporate governance matters;
• filing for and protecting trademarks;
• assisting with implementing business processes;
• and advising on legal disputes.

As a generalist firm, we refer out matters requiring substantial subject matter expertise and litigation. In other words, Manzanita Law can be a first stop for any legal issues a business has, and we'll strive to address these in a practical and straightforward way.

The Firm bills based on a standard hourly rate. This means you pay for the hours we spend working on a matter and corresponding with you on the matter. If you prefer, we may be able to offer an alternative arrangement for specific projects.
