Our focus is to advise founders on typical matters such as raising capital safely, how to protect their intellectual property and to accelerate their growth sensibly.

What Does It Mean to Do Corporate Law?

Corporate law is the legal foundation that supports how a business is formed, managed, financed, and expanded. At its core, it governs how companies interact with shareholders, employees, investors, and regulators—and ensures your operations comply with both state and federal laws.


A corporate lawyer works behind the scenes to make sure your business is protected today and positioned for success tomorrow. At Empire Business Law, that means we provide strategic advice on:


  • Corporate structuring and entity formation
  • Mergers, acquisitions, and dissolutions
  • Shareholder agreements and bylaws
  • Corporate governance and compliance
  • Investment, fundraising, and securities law matters
  • Risk management and legal liability protection



Simply put, corporate law is what keeps your business on solid legal ground—so you can build without hesitation.

FAQs About Corporate Law Services

  • What types of businesses need corporate law services?

    Almost every business can benefit from corporate law services, especially if you're planning to grow, raise capital, or bring on partners. Whether you’re a startup, an LLC, or a large corporation, having a corporate law office like Empire Business Law on your side ensures you’re structured correctly and legally protected.

  • How is corporate law different from business law?

    Corporate law is a subset of business law focused specifically on corporations and legal entities. While business law may include areas like contracts and employment, corporate law zeroes in on entity formation, governance, shareholder rights, compliance, and financial structuring.

  • What documents are involved in corporate law?

    Key corporate law documents include articles of incorporation, bylaws, operating agreements, shareholder agreements, stock certificates, board resolutions, and meeting minutes. These documents define how your company operates and protect its legal standing.

  • Can Empire Business Law help with mergers or selling a business?

    Yes. We provide comprehensive legal support for mergers, acquisitions, and business sales. We handle due diligence, negotiation, contracts, regulatory compliance, and everything needed to make sure your transaction is legally sound and strategically beneficial.

  • Is corporate law only for large companies?

    Not at all. In fact, small businesses and startups often benefit the most from corporate law services. Getting your legal foundation right from the beginning prevents costly mistakes down the road—and helps you scale smarter.
