San Diego, California

Real Estate and Business Transactions and Corporate Governance

The Law Office 0f Donald Schiffer assists growing companies, entrepreneurs, and real estate developers throughout San Diego, California with business operations and real estate transactions.

I opened my solo practice in 1994 after many years as in-house legal counsel and executive positions with financial and real estate development companies.

Business Formations and Dissolutions
The Law Office of Donald Schiffer helps developers and other entrepreneurs choose the appropriate business entity for starting a business, including limited liability company (LLC), limited liability partnership (LLP), C-corp, S-corp or other entities.

I also assist existing companies with restructuring for reasons related to tax, business succession, growth, and elimination or addition of partners and investors. When businesses are dissolving, I help the owners handle shareholder issues and liquidation and transfer of assets.

Business Transactions
My practice counsels small companies and mid-sized corporations in the San Diego area with all aspects of mergers, acquisitions and divestitures, including buy-sell agreements, shareholder agreements, and other transactional issues. I have overseen the purchase and sale of all types of businesses, large and small.

Real Estate Transactions
The Law Office of Donald Schiffer can facilitate all types of real estate transactions for developers, business owners and individuals in the greater San Diego County area. I handle all types of residential, commercial and industrial property transactions, including preparing and reviewing commercial leases.

My background in both real estate and finance enables me to thoroughly assemble (or review) a purchase transaction, from escrow and title issues to homeowner association formation and preparation of conditions, covenants and restrictions (CC&R’s). I have also established homeowner associations, filed condominium plans and drafted contracts for architecture and construction management.

Business Operations
As a former executive – and owner of my own law practice – I have key insights into the day-to-day legal issues of running a small business. I can help clients with a range of business operation services, including:

  • Licensing of technology or intellectual property 
  • Strategic partnerships (joint venture agreements) 
  • Distributorship agreements 
  • Consulting agreements 
  • Employment agreements 
  • Manufacturing arrangements 
  • Joint marketing agreements

Please contact the Law Office of Donald Schiffer to arrange an initial consultation with me regarding your business or real estate issue or transaction. I strive for excellence in providing both legal advice and personal service.
