Long Island Business Law Firm
A business lawyer helps you form the company, put your deals in writing, and sort things out when someone doesn't hold up their end. On Long Island, that often means a restaurant, a contractor, a medical practice or a family company with no in-house counsel.
According to U.S. Census data, Nassau and Suffolk counties have roughly 99,000 employer establishments, and plenty of those owners are handling legal questions alone. At The Frank Law Firm P.C., we work as your Long Island business attorney from the first LLC filing through a commercial dispute and, if money gets tight, reorganization. You keep one firm that already knows your business, from Franklin Square to Port Jefferson Station.
Business Legal Services Long Island
The Frank Law Firm provided me with legal advice and guidance during a difficult situation. I came to them to review and explain a legal contract I had signed. Amanda was very knowledgeable and explained the document thoroughly. She was very reassuring, and honest in answering all my questions. I would highly recommend to anyone seeking legal representation to reach out to this firm.
Thomas Frank came highly recommended by an attorney I trust and represented me in a complex matter against a large business entity represented by a large NYC firm. He immediately grasped the nature and scope of my case and came up with a brilliant, linear strategy in short order. Just as swiftly, Thomas strategically executed on each step. I have worked with white glove law firms and have never found the level of consistency and professionalism that Thomas provided in his capacity of counsel. He literally made zero mistakes, even in the moments of game time decisions in the courtroom. Not only that, his creativity and judgement led to an outcome that exceeded my expectations, and, as a human being, he was an absolute pleasure to work with. I cannot recommend Thomas Frank highly enough!
We came to Frank Law Firm because our original attorney put us in a scenario where everything was mismanaged. Amanda quickly cleaned up our previous attorneys mess and put us back on track. From day one they were very transparent about their process and fees. They provided fantastic guidance for us as new home owners. The team was highly responsive and often took time to ensure we fully understood potential outcomes and next steps. Overall we would work with them again and recommend to friends.
Amanda was a pleasure to work with!!! Selling and buying a home at the same time is very stressful too begin with and my experience was very difficult and stressful to say the least. Amanda was so patient, always available, and very knowledgeable to every question and concern that I had. I was truly blessed to have her represent me with both of my transactions. I would definitely recommend The Frank Law Firm to anyone that is looking for the best lawyers out there!!!
Amanda was extremely attentive and followed up on everything promptly. The law firm was professional and courteous and I highly recommend it.
Top of the line customer service. Helped me get my moving violation dismissed and I didn't have to do anything ! Was certain I would get in some trouble but was completely shocked when I received the news that it was completely dismissed. In the past with other law firms I paid a lot of money to only get the penalty months later. The Frank Law Firm dealt with my situation in the most kind and professional way. Very nice people.

Thomas Frank was a pleasure to work with. The experience was nothing but a professional one. Mr. Frank guided me through the whole process of Chapter 7 bankruptcy. He was always available to reach by email or texting at any time that I contacted him. He never failed to get back to me within hours. I highly recommend Mr. Frank for all of your legal issues. Also, you'll find their price for their legal services to be more than fair. Again, a great big thank you to a professional and knowledgeable team.
I needed an attorney quick fast and in a hurry. My girlfriend recommended this firm. I called and Amanda got back to me quickly. She researched my issue and gave me good guidance. She is a former prosecutor but able to explain convoluted legal concepts in a very straight forward way. We didn't wind up retaining the firm due to the time contraints of our case, but I know we will be working with them in the future. Give them a call, I think you will like what you hear.
I would like to thank Thomas in handling my first time home buying experience with his law firm. He was very polite and very professional. He even took the time to explain to me page by page about some documents I received from the seller, which by the way it was on his spare time to answer all of my concerns about those documents. He responded on every email and text that I had questions and concerns and I got answers. Thomas made himself accessible and told me if I have any other closing related issues pertaining any documents to give him a call. Thank you once again on doing a great job. I would highly recommend Thomas Frank and his law firm.
I retained Frank Law Firm when I received a warrant for an unpaid ticket. Not knowing the severity of this issue, I called and consulted Amanda. Before giving me any direction, she took the time to make some calls and figure out what exactly was going on. She then guided me through the process. She was very comforting and explained everything in a manor that I understood. I would like to send a sincere thank you to her and Frank Law Firm. The amount of attention and guidance I received was refreshing. I would recommend them to anyone!
The Frank Law firm has helped me and my family tremendously. Amanda has been nothing but a blessing with her vast knowledge and resources, Me and My family were very satisfied with their service. Would definitely recommended them.
I'm a real estate investor in NY and I honestly could not ask to partner up with any firm better than the incredible people at Frank Law Firm. There passion, love and dedication for what they do is evident. I can't thank them enough for everything they have helped me with so far and we are only going to grow from here...
Business Litigation Lawyer Long Island
Most disputes start small: a vendor who won't deliver, a landlord who reads the lease differently than you do, a co-owner who stops returning calls. As your Long Island business dispute lawyer, we start with the simplest fix that works, which is often a firm letter or a direct conversation.
When that falls short, we step in as your business litigation lawyer on Long Island, handling contract disputes, partnership conflicts and commercial litigation for owners in Nassau and Suffolk. You'll know where you stand at each stage, and we'll tell you straight when we think suing isn't worth it.
Corporate Attorney Long Island
As a corporate attorney on Long Island, we help you choose between an LLC, a corporation or a partnership and handle the setup. We draft and review contracts, from vendor agreements to the operating agreement that settles who owns what, and we keep an eye on compliance, including employment law.
Leases matter just as much. Whether your storefront sits on Jericho Turnpike or Montauk Highway, we review commercial leases and handle real estate transactions, since that is often the biggest commitment a local owner signs. Because we're a Long Island business law firm that also handles bankruptcy and Chapter 11, these business legal services stay with you if things turn.
Long Island Business Attorney Steps
Have a question about your situation? Start with a conversation.
Ask our teamEarlier than most people think. The easiest moments are before you form the company, before you sign a lease or a big vendor contract, and before you bring in a partner. A few hours of attention then shape everything that follows.
The next best time is the first sign of trouble, like a customer who keeps paying late or a co-owner pulling in a different direction. Plenty of Nassau and Suffolk owners call a small business attorney only after a problem has grown, and we'll work with that too. But the sooner we see the situation, the more choices you have.
You can file the paperwork yourself, and online services make it look simple. What they don't do is tell you whether an LLC, a corporation or a partnership fits the way you actually operate. They also don't write the agreement that says who owns what and what happens if two owners disagree.
That agreement is what you'll wish you had when a disagreement comes. A Long Island business attorney can set up the entity and the agreements together, so they match your plans for the company, and flag questions to take to your accountant.
It depends on the work, and we won't throw out a number we can't stand behind. Business lawyers generally bill in one of three ways: hourly, on a retainer, or a flat fee for a defined job like forming an entity or reviewing a contract.
Which fits depends on whether the work has a clear start and finish. At The Frank Law Firm P.C., we explain how fees would work before you commit, and we don't charge corporate rates. With any lawyer you're considering, ask for an estimate on your specific matter and what's included. Call 516-246-5577 and we'll go through it with you.
In New York, a corporation generally can't appear in court on its own the way an individual can. It needs an attorney. That surprises owners who assume they can show up and explain what happened.
If your company is sued, or you need to go after a customer who won't pay, talk to a business litigation lawyer before any deadline passes, because ignoring court papers can cost you the case by default. We handle commercial litigation for Long Island businesses in Nassau and Suffolk, and the first step is often a conversation about whether the dispute can be resolved without going all the way.
You still have options, though fewer than if you'd put things in writing. Start by gathering what does exist: emails, texts, bank records and filings that show who agreed to what. Then talk to a business dispute lawyer before the relationship hardens or one of you makes a move that's hard to undo, like locking someone out or emptying an account.
Many partner disagreements settle through negotiation or mediation, and a written agreement can come out of that conversation. Owners who started a company together on a handshake often land here, and we help Long Island owners work out the next step.
Sometimes, yes. Chapter 11 is built for businesses that want to keep operating while they reorganize their debts. Subchapter V, created in 2019, was designed to make that process faster and less expensive for small businesses.
Whether either one fits depends on the kind and amount of debt you carry. A liquidation chapter, by contrast, usually means closing. We handle bankruptcy as well as business law, so if you're a Long Island owner buried in debt, you can talk through reorganization and your other options with a firm that won't make you feel like you've failed. Call before your options run out.
