Paramus, New Jersey-Based International Law Attorney

An international economy necessarily involves complex legal issues. If you conduct business internationally, you need an attorney who can assist you with drafting the contracts and handling the litigation that often develops. The law firm of Samuel D. Bornstein, P.A., is experienced in helping clients address a broad range of international law issues, including contract negotiation, documentation and drafting, alternate dispute management, and compliance issues.

Through the years, as the firm clients' involvement with international transactions has grown, the firm's involvement and commitment to international work has increased proportionately.

The firm helps international clients with the following issues:

• Is it necessary or desirable to handle the transaction through a new business entity, to be formed in the United States or in a foreign country?
• What country's law will be applied?
• How long will the business arrangement between the parties last?
• How will employee and personnel issues be handled?
• How, where, and in what currency is payment to be made?
• Is one party an agent for the other in any context, and are there any limitations on that agency?
• Can either party assign his rights without the other party's consent?
• Can any part of the business risk be insured or bonded?
• Do the parties owe any post-contract obligations to one another for continuing warranties or guaranties? Are there post-contract covenants against disclosure of business terms, customer requirements and the like? Are there covenants against competition?

The firm understands these and other particular areas of concern. Generally, the firm helps domestic and foreign clients negotiate and structure the international transaction and provides the proper documentation.
