Mark Guay Law Offices

My firm currently represents more than 60 national and international corporations, both profit and non-profit. We emphasize that business is a team sport. It is critical that you create a team of people to advise you on how to protect your hard-earned dollars. I have practiced law in Newburyport since 1985. My firm represents businesses in the full range of legal matters a company may encounter as it grows. This work includes filing the appropriate documents with the Massachusetts Secretary of State's Office for start-ups, protecting and licensing of their product or service, protecting their federal trademarks (if any) and working with them as a team in commercial contract transactions. In furtherance of the theme that business is a team sport, the three legs to a successful risk management program for small businesses are as follows: 1) Asset Protection (2) Retirement Planning (3) Estate Planning Each element is equally important and overlapping. These elements collectively form your overall risk management strategy Areas of Practice business & Commercial Law Contracts Franchising Business Organizations Estate Planning Trusts Wills Intellectual Property Law Trade Secrets Trademarks Copyrights Taxation Law Strategic Planning Mergers & Acquisitions Licensing Real Estate Sales & Leases
