Business Law In Oregon
Tailored advice is crucial when it comes to making any legally binding decisions. With over 20 years of experience, Mr. Mishkin focuses on utilizing the most tax-efficient and liability-shielding corporate vehicle under Oregon and other state business laws. While starting a new business may be a daunting task, he determines the corporate law structure that most efficiently achieves your long-term goals while mitigating state and federal taxation. He does this by serving clients from offices in Portland, Bend, and West Linn.
Mr. Mishkin is experienced in anticipating future obstacles and hazards with the aim of avoiding protracted and expensive litigation. He harnesses this experience to consult with you to pinpoint and address such matters within your shareholder/operating agreement/bylaws.
If you own a small or family-owned business, transfer of ownership is one of the most important business decisions you will make. For instance, if you retire or move on, you will need to either wind down operations or transfer or sell the business. If you decide to transfer it, you will need to determine the new owner and how to make the transfer.
However, this may be stressful to undertake on your own. As your business lawyer, Mr. Mishkin can advise you on business succession and estate planning in an effort to minimise any extra stress. Furthermore, he can also help to manage succession issues and smoothly transition your business to the new owner.
Perhaps you’re looking to purchase or sell business assets or shares. In cases like these, Mr. Mishkin will lawfully guide you through the transaction while protecting your interests and rights to ultimately protect your future financial welfare.

Business And Commercial Litigation
Having a dependable legal strategy in place is a key component for any business, no matter how large or small. This often involves ensuring critical business interests such as trade secrets or a right to compensation are well-protected under contract.
Mr. Mishkin is knowledgeable in business and commercial litigation and can assist with a wide range of issues such as breach of contract, business fraud or embezzlement, partner and shareholder disputes, insurance law, and other areas of business and commercial litigation.
Business Succession Planning
While it may feel uncomfortable to talk or even think about, planning for the future of your business is necessary to safeguard the results you’ve achieved. Running a business without a business succession plan in place opens you up to potentially devastating impacts if the unexpected occurs.
Mr. Mishkin handles all business succession plans with compassion and care, as he understands this can be an emotional time in any business owner’s life.
He is well-versed in all areas of business succession planning including business structure, business transitions, review and drafting business contracts, business debt collection, and more.
