Houston Business Law Attorney

Business Formation

Choosing the right legal structure for your business is one of the most important decisions you’ll make as an entrepreneur or business owner. At Prophet Law Group, we help Houston startups, small businesses, and growing companies lay a strong legal foundation from day one.

Our business formation services include:

​

• Entity Selection: We guide you through the pros and cons of each business structure—Limited Liability Company (LLC), Corporation (C-Corp or S-Corp), General Partnership, Limited Partnership (LP), or Professional Association (PA)—based on your goals, tax implications, and risk tolerance.

• State and Federal Filings: We handle all required documentation, including filing formation documents with the Texas Secretary of State and obtaining an EIN (Employer Identification Number) from the IRS.

• Operating Agreements and Bylaws: We draft customized governance documents that clarify ownership structure, management responsibilities, and decision-making processes—essential tools to prevent future disputes.

• Partnership Agreements: For businesses with multiple owners, we help draft clear and enforceable agreements outlining roles, profit sharing, and exit strategies.

• Regulatory Compliance: We ensure your business meets local Houston regulations, state licensing requirements, and any necessary industry-specific rules.

Starting your business with the right legal framework can help minimize liability, attract investors, and position your company for long-term success.

Business Litigation

No business is immune to conflict. Whether you’re a small business owner or the leader of a mid-sized corporation, legal disputes can disrupt operations, damage reputations, and threaten financial stability. Prophet Law Group represents Houston businesses in a wide range of litigation matters, including:

​

• Partnership and Shareholder Disputes: Disagreements over ownership rights, profit distribution, or control of the business.

• Breach of Fiduciary Duty: Claims involving allegations that a partner, officer, or director acted against the company’s best interests.

• Business Torts: Including fraud, misrepresentation, tortious interference with contracts, and unfair competition.

• Trade Secret and Intellectual Property Disputes: Protecting confidential business information and proprietary processes.

• Employment Disputes: Including wrongful termination claims, non-compete enforcement, and breach of confidentiality agreements.

Our approach focuses on efficient, results-driven solutions. While we aggressively advocate for clients in court when needed, we also explore alternative dispute resolution (ADR) methods like mediation and arbitration when they offer a faster, more cost-effective outcome.

​

We know that in business litigation, your reputation and bottom line are always at stake. Our goal is to protect both.

Contract Disputes

Contracts form the foundation of nearly every business relationship—whether with customers, vendors, partners, or employees. When one party fails to meet their obligations or when contract terms are misinterpreted, your business could face operational delays, financial losses, or legal exposure.

​

Prophet Law Group helps Houston businesses resolve contract disputes involving:

​

• Nonperformance or Failure to Deliver Services/Products

• Misinterpretation or Ambiguity in Contract Terms

• Vendor and Supplier Disputes

• Breach of Sales Agreements or Service Contracts

• Franchise Agreement Disputes

• Nonpayment or Late Payment Issues

Our attorneys thoroughly review contract language, gather evidence, and build strong legal arguments to protect your interests. We aim to resolve disputes through strategic negotiation when possible—but we’re fully prepared to litigate in court if necessary.

Whether you need to enforce a contract, defend against an unfair claim, or renegotiate unfavorable terms, Prophet Law Group provides experienced counsel tailored to your business goals.
