Business Attorneys in Carrollton, TX — Peters Kussmaul Crosier

For Carrollton owners, Peters Kussmaul Crosier takes on company purchases and sales, entity setup and restructuring, the contracts behind day-to-day operations, and lawsuits when those contracts break down.

Carrollton's economy is built on making, storing and moving goods. Warehouses and wholesale distributors line the I-35E corridor near Trinity Mills, and the city's economic development office also counts advanced manufacturing, professional services, health care and construction among its main industries. Koreatown, where Old Denton Road meets the George Bush Turnpike, adds Asian restaurants, grocery stores and shops. The legal work follows: supply agreements and credit terms, subcontracts, owner agreements and, in time, the sale of the business.

Ask a Question

We're buying a Carrollton wholesale distributor. What should diligence focus on?

Start with the supplier agreements: whether the product lines are exclusive and whether a change in ownership lets a supplier walk away. Then check how much revenue rests on a few customers and how inventory will be counted at closing. See due diligence.

Carrollton spans three counties. Does that affect which federal court hears a case?

It can. The Dallas County part of the city is in the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division, and the Denton and Collin County parts are in the Eastern District of Texas, Sherman Division. Federal venue turns mostly on where the defendants live and where the events happened.

Our Carrollton construction company wants to give a key employee ownership. How does that work?

Common choices are ownership that vests over several years, or a profits interest or phantom equity plan that shares value without full ownership. The company agreement should cover what happens if the employee leaves, and your CPA should review the tax side first. See equity compensation.
