Before a business person sits down to create a business plan he or she must stop and think about the reason for its preparation: to attract investors, to attract management talent, to think strategically about the goals and objectives of the business, to serve as a fiscal budget, to serve as a team-building exercise. The business plan can take many forms, from simple executive summaries to fifty page doctoral theses complete with five years of pro forma financial statements, human resource needs analysis, technical diagrams, and engineering schematics. We consult with our clients to review, edit or even prepare the appropriate business plan for their needs. The combination of our legal and business training and our real world, hand's on approach to the practice of law makes us uniquely qualified to advise, and counsel our clients to create the best plan possible.

However, creation of the business plan is only the beginning. What separates the successful businesses from the rest is implementation of their business plan. We provide a sounding board for our clients business plan implementation. If the plan's objective was to attract management talent, we can use our experience to assist our client's locate, negotiate and enter into employment agreements with the necessary talent. If the plan calls for rapid expansion, and significant physical space, our real estate leasing expertise can be hugely valuable to the growing concern. These are just a few of the skills that Jacobs & Associates can deploy for our entrepreneurial clients.
