Choosing to organize, operate, or sell a business can be a financial gamble with substantial risk. The choice of legal representation for your business interests can have a dramatic impact on the success of your enterprise. Sound advice and planning from a skilled business lawyer will help you to avoid disputes and take advantage of all opportunities provided by the law. Failure to secure the best advocate available could result in business mistakes that could jeopardize your investment and result in costly, protracted legal battles.

The Consistency of Corporate Counsel without the Expense

Our Firm provides big firm expertise with small firm value. We serve business and private clients throughout Ohio and across the United States in a number of practice areas. At Joseph D. Carney & Associates, LLC., a small but efficient legal team of business professionals provides hands-on, comprehensive counsel to private investors with substantial assets and multi-million dollar corporations requiring national and international administration.

Corporate Business Counsel

Many investors and businesses do not have the budget to employ full-time corporate counsel, choosing instead to retain legal representation on an "as needed" basis when problems arise. Joseph D. Carney & Associates, LLC. was formed specifically to offer a viable alternative to this piecemeal approach, combining the consistent, long-range advocacy and planning of corporate counsel with the flexibility and affordability of hourly representation.

Accountability

Our attorneys are experienced business planners and litigators having appeared at all levels of the Ohio state and federal courts and in association with attorneys nationwide. An arbitrator, Mr. Carney believes in the use of out-of-court solutions wherever possible, including arbitration, mediation and other forms of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) whenever possible, but only when it is in the best interest of his client.

An important standard of accountability by which a business lawyer may be judged is the number of long-term relationships developed with clients. These ongoing relationships illustrate clearly the attorney's success in guiding, protecting, and building the business interests of corporate clients and investors.  We are proud of our many long-term legal relationships.
