A well-structured shareholder agreement brings clarity to important relationships and decisions. Whether setting up a new agreement or working through a dispute, legal guidance can help ensure the process is fair, thoughtful, and built to last.
Key provisions like buy/sell clauses, rights of first refusal, shareholder loans, non-compete terms, and succession planning are carefully considered to reflect your goals and avoid future misunderstandings. It is about creating stability today and setting your business up for a successful future.
Experienced with domestic and international corporations and lenders, we regularly advise clients on corporate mergers, acquisitions, sales deals, and other related business transactions.
Drawing upon industry-specific knowledge and experience, our business lawyers provide strategic guidance for a successful transaction, including business immigration, competition/antitrust, employment/executive compensation, environmental matters, financing, foreign investment review, intellectual property, litigation, pensions, real estate, and securities/regulatory.
With the right guidance, the merger and acquisition process can feel more focused, more manageable, and better aligned with your goals, both now and in the long term.
Choosing a business name and registering your trademark is a crucial step in building your brand. LK Law ensures your intellectual property is protected.

Working with a non-profit, society, or charitable organization often comes from a place of purpose, and the legal side should support that, not complicate it. Whether you are incorporating, applying for charitable status, forming a trust, or navigating governance responsibilities, the right guidance can make things clearer. From individual donors to family foundations and community groups, the goal is the same: to help your organization run smoothly, meet its obligations, so you can stay focused on what really matters.

We represent acquirers, targets, boards, committees, shareholder groups, and financial advisors in a full spectrum of mergers and acquisitions—from friendly and contested takeovers to corporate reorganizations, proxy contests, going-private transactions, and cross-border deals.
Beyond transactional work, we support clients with their ongoing compliance needs, including corporate governance, disclosure obligations, stock exchange requirements, and other securities regulatory matters.
Behind every lawyer is a belief that the law should do more than solve problems—it should support people through life’s moments. That belief is central to how our business lawyers approach their work. It is not just about the outcome, but how you get there.
From first conversations to final decisions, you can expect clear guidance, honest dialogue, and a steady hand through every step. The goal is simple: to make sure you feel informed, supported, and equipped to move forward.
