Corporate Law Attorney– Los Angeles, CA

Corporate law and governance refer to the legal rules, processes, and procedures that govern how corporations are formed, operated, managed, and controlled. In California, a corporation is a separate legal entity from its owners—the shareholders—who receive limited liability protection. Proper corporate formation and governance help maintain the limited liability protection offered to shareholders and ensure compliance with California corporate laws, formalities, and the fiduciary duties owed by directors and officers, all of which support the long-term success of the business.

The role of a corporate law attorney is to assist and advise the corporation on various legal matters, including corporate formation, governance, compliance, management, raising capital, restructuring, buyouts, and dissolution.

YLG's® Corporate Law practice provides a full range of legal services for all your corporate law related needs—from corporate formation to dissolution, “corporate divorce,” and everything that may arise in between.
