THE FAMILY BUSINESS LEGAL GROUP
Balancing family and business
Owners of family businesses face the same challenges as any entrepreneur, things like building a management team, growing the business and facing competition. But family-owned businesses face other unique challenges: the interplay of personal issues with business matters, defining various members’ roles in the business, balancing the financial rewards of family members active in the business with the interests of those outside the business, and avoiding tensions between family and non-family employees.
Over the years, the Family Business Legal Group (FBL Group) members — Ken Luer, Joan Velazquez and Reeve Chudd — have represented all types of family businesses, from start-ups to well-established companies that are leaders in their markets. Ken, Joan and Reeve combine their broad expertise and their special perspective to guide you and your business through all the challenges you will face, working with you and your other advisors in areas that are crucial to operating a family business.
Ken, Joan and Reeve have practiced together for over 25 years and have combined expertise in corporate and business law, tax, financing, real estate and estate planning. Their broad experience is supported by the full range of Ervin, Cohen & Jessup’s resources. ECJ is one of Southern California's premier law firms, serving family-owned businesses and other entrepreneurial clients with practical, hands-on advice and representation for the full range of their legal needs.
