Business Attorneys in Denton, TX — Peters Kussmaul Crosier

Peters Kussmaul Crosier works with Denton owners on company purchases and sales, new ventures and their first funding, everyday contracts as outside counsel, and commercial lawsuits.

Denton is home to the University of North Texas and Texas Woman's University, and education and health care are central to its economy. Shops, restaurants, bars and music venues line downtown around the historic Courthouse Square, and manufacturers and distributors work near the I-35E and I-35W junction and in districts such as Westpark. The city's development efforts target logistics, automotive manufacturing and aviation. That brings supply and carrier contracts, founder agreements and company sales.

How We Help Denton Businesses

Ask a Question

We're selling our Denton manufacturing company. What will the buyer's due diligence focus on?

Customer and supplier contracts that can end on a change of ownership, title and liens on equipment, environmental permits and site condition, and the financials behind the price. Gathering them early keeps the deal on schedule. See selling a business.

We met at UNT and are starting a Denton company. What should the founders sign first?

An agreement on who owns what, how founder shares vest and what happens if someone leaves, plus an assignment of each founder's work to the company. If that work used university resources, check the school's intellectual property policy. See founder equity and vesting.

Our Denton company was served with a lawsuit in Denton County. When is our answer due?

The deadline is short. In a Texas district court, it is set by the court rules and counted from the date the company was served. Missing it can lead to a default judgment, so get the papers to a litigator right away. See business litigation.
