Whether you want to start a new business, or already have one, CornerStone Legal Services, PLLC is the Minnesota law firm to assist with all your business and employment law needs. Our Minneapolis business law and employment law attorneys work with for-profit and non-profit businesses and organizations to grow and protect your business.
Employment law can change rapidly. Courts and government agencies issue new opinions interpreting these laws every day, sometimes overturning how a law was previously interpreted in long-standing case law. When you consider that lawsuits brought by former employees may end in large settlement awards against an employer, it's easy to see why you should seek legal advice when you get in over your head.
If you run to an attorney every time you have to make an employment-related decision, you could quickly go broke. This is precisely the reason we offer flat monthly retainer options tailored to your desired needs/prospective use (reviewed and negotiated annually). This arrangement allows an organization to seek initial assistance with the daily employment-related uncertainties that arise in connection with things like evaluations, hiring, discipline, termination, etc. We work with you to determine which situations require some expert help and which you can handle on your own. Below are a handful of instances you should seek legal counsel for.
Most small businesses do not have the need or ability to have their own full time legal department - We are your "In-House Counsel" when you need it! Need to ensure compliance with regulations impacting your business? Contact us for a compliance consult. Do not have a compliance program in place yet? Let us work with you to provide the framework and support to protect your business from prospective litigation.
At CornerStone Legal Services, PLLC, our clients are our business. We are dedicated to building a solid relational foundation with each of our clients to ensure clear understanding of their goals and dreams. We help businesses develop and protect what they already have by providing direction and guidance to minimize legal risks. Its your business, it matters to us.
