Building your business? We’re building your protection.
For entrepreneurs, startups, growing businesses and family-owned enterprises in Porter County and Northwest Indiana, the legal side of business often gets pushed aside. At Galloway Law, we prioritize your legal foundation so your business can thrive—and you can rest confident that your rights, contracts, assets and liabilities are properly managed.
Why legal counsel early matters for your small business
When forming a business, entering contracts, hiring employees, or planning for the future—mistakes or omissions can be costly. Engaging legal support early helps you:
- Choose the right entity (LLC, corporation, partnership) with proper operating agreements
- Protect your personal liability and shield your assets
- Draft, review, and negotiate contracts, leases, vendor agreements, employee documents
- Ensure compliance with Indiana state and federal regulations (e.g., employment, licensing, liability)
- Plan for transitions: sale, succession, closing or expansion
- Mitigate risks from litigation, disputes, and unexpected events
