Your Monthly News & Updates
The legal profession has nearly as many practice areas as there are letters to abbreviate them! From modern day aviation attorneys to the "yellow-dog contract" lawyers of yesteryear, many marvel at the myriad fields of law that exist. Since our newsletter is designed to inform people about legal updates  and to inspire businesses and entrepreneurs, I wanted to share about a law not found in jurisprudence:  The Law Of Harvest.  To quote a British author on this topic: 

"The Law Of Harvest is to reap more than you sow.  Sow an  act , and you reap a  habit .  Sow a  habit , and you reap  character .  Sow  character  and you reap a  destiny ." - James Allen

A successful business must constantly be sowing seeds -- taking small yet consistent actions to shape your professional destiny.  Our firm can help your business to comply with the federal, state and NYC employment laws, so you don't get diverted from your primary tasks. We further handle your business law transactions, while you focus on growing your business.
