Tajima LLP provides outside general counsel services to businesses navigating California legal issues. We advise on contracts, corporate governance, employment matters, and dispute prevention, helping owners and leadership teams make informed decisions before problems become costly disputes.
How we help
- Commercial contracts: Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating agreements with customers, vendors, and business partners, with attention to obligations, payment, termination, and potential disputes.
- Corporate governance: Advising on board and shareholder processes, management authority, corporate records, and decisions affecting ownership and control.
- Employment advice: Addressing workplace issues, executive compensation, employee departures, confidentiality, and trade-secret concerns.
- Dispute prevention: Assessing emerging disagreements, responding to demands, and addressing contract performance or payment issues before positions harden.
Business advice with the dispute in view
Our litigation practice informs how we approach business advice. We consider how an agreement will operate when a relationship becomes strained, how a decision will be documented, and what evidence may matter if a disagreement escalates. That perspective helps clients evaluate risk and preserve options while pursuing their commercial objectives.
Ongoing support or a defined project
We work with businesses through ongoing counsel relationships and individual projects. The engagement can focus on a specific contract, governance issue, or employment concern, or provide continuing support as the business's needs develop. When an issue calls for specialist expertise, we coordinate with appropriate counsel.
