Business and Transactional Counsel

We provide practical, strategic counsel to founders, executives, and nonprofit leaders navigating complex business transactions and organizational decisions. Whether you’re launching a new venture, managing governance issues, or restructuring for growth, Asher Law Associates offers seasoned legal guidance grounded in real-world experience.

Our transactional practice is often a natural complement to our political and nonprofit work. We help tax-exempt organizations, advocacy coalitions, family foundations, and donor collaboratives structure affiliated entities, manage compliance, and negotiate with confidence. On the for-profit side, we advise closely held businesses, startups, and mission-driven enterprises on formation, equity arrangements, commercial agreements, and risk mitigation.

Our approach is direct, responsive, and focused on helping clients make decisions—not just understand their legal options.  Whether you’re forming a company, negotiating a deal, or rethinking your governance model, we help you get it right and keep it moving.
