Find vetted business law counsel in Miami, Florida. Incorporations, shareholder agreements, contracts, financings, sales of business. Get a business lawyer who reads the deal carefully and writes documents that hold up.
Online incorporation services are fine for a single-shareholder, single-class corporation with no debt and no investors. Anything more complex (multiple founders, vesting, options, investors, family trusts, multiple share classes) needs a real lawyer. The cost of a bad share structure is paid years later in tax, litigation, or a failed financing.
Look for a firm with active business law practice in Miami courts and tribunals, transparent fee structures, and clear communication. The right counsel will explain options without pressure, return calls promptly, and have demonstrated experience with matters comparable to yours. Every lawyer listed on Bremo Lawyers is verified against the relevant state bar.

Yes, almost always. Even between best friends, a shareholder agreement signed before issues arise prevents litigation when they do. Vesting alone often saves a startup.
