Ascend Law offers a wide range of services to small business starting with our Foundational Audit where we take an integrated approach to ensuring your business has the four pillars in place:
- LEGAL foundation to protect your personal assets from your business activities,
- INSURANCE so you are managing your risk without spending more than you need to,
- FINANCIAL systems to allow you to make smart decisions about the future based on the numbers, and
- TAX strategies so you keep as much of your hard earned dollars as possible.
Ascend Law believes that working with business owners to focus on these key areas allows the owners to focus on growing their companies on a strong foundation. Of course we help you create the formation documents and provide guidance on other key documents if you have not yet completed these.
Ascend Law offers a unique member program that gives you the benefit of having legal counsel available when you need it without having to worry about hourly legal bills. Once you complete a foundational audit you can pick the level of membership you require. And if you elect not to join our membership program we will review your plan at three years as part of your initial audit. Ascend Law will also keep you up to date on key issues for small business owners each month. We know you are busy so we help you keep on top of important legal issues that often fall through the cracks.
