Serving Brevard County Businesses Since 1984
At Goldman, Monaghan, Thakkar & Bettin, P.A., your goals are our goals. Whether you seek to establish a new business, resolve a dispute or facilitate long-term growth, we are prepared to assist you. We are known as the gold standard in legal representation. Our business law attorneys draw from more than 180 collective years of experience to serve small and midsized businesses to large corporations. From our law office in Cocoa, we represent clients throughout Brevard County and the surrounding communities.
Our Corporate Law Services
We are a full-service business law firm. What this means for our clients is that they can receive advice for issues that span multiple practice areas. Just a few of our primary business law services include:
- Business formation: Our lawyers help entrepreneurs make their business dreams a reality. We assist with all stages of business formation, including selecting entities and drafting governing instruments such as partnership and shareholder agreements.
- Business financing: Whether you require a business loan or need general advice on how to best structure the finances and secure funding for your business, our attorneys have the experience needed.
- General business counsel: We often take on the role of internal corporate counsel, handling everything from contract negotiation and drafting to dispute resolution. We assist with internal governance issues and provide legal advice and counsel during daily business decisions, including the purchase and sale of business interests. Our lawyers also advise on general tax and regulatory matters.
- Business dissolution: Businesses do not always last forever. Industries change, and individuals may have other goals or opportunities they want to pursue. Dissolving a business involves many considerations. Our firm can assist with the sale or dissolution of a business. We also help business owners develop succession plans that protect their financial interests.
Our Brevard County business lawyers are also trial-tested litigators. While we regularly use alternative dispute resolution (ADR) and implement risk reduction measures proactively, we can also advocate for you assertively in court.
The Combination Of Financial, Legal And Business Experience
When advising businesses, our attorneys draw on their decades of business and legal experience. They help clients see the long-term financial and business impact a decision will have on their company and implement necessary legal safeguards – such as noncompete agreements – to position them for future growth. Our attorneys understand the business and financial factors at play in running a business. Attorney Matthew J. Monaghan has a Master of Science (MST) in taxation and previously worked as a certified public accountant (CPA) (license inactive). This combination of legal experience, business acumen and financial knowledge makes our attorneys perfectly poised to advise clients on their full spectrum of business needs.
