ABOUT OUR FIRM


Starting and managing a business is hard work. Understanding business law is important to your success.  That’s where we come in. At Pearce Roberts Business Law, LLC, we work with business founders, owners, managers, and professionals.  We share legal expertise with all types of businesses, from startup companies and high-growth companies to long-established businesses. 

Each industry faces different legal issues, and every business is presented with its own challenges and opportunities.  Our firm is here to help you navigate the complexities of business law.  From sharing startup advice to handling mergers and acquisitions, we’re here to help. 

Our firm is dedicated to helping our clients achieve their business and personal goals, and we are proud of our clients’ many successes and accomplishments.  Recently, we have assisted clients with the following:

A major corporate reorganization which combined multiple companies into one entity for operational efficiencies, managerial streamlining, succession planning, and lower future expenses.
  • The sale of a minority stake in a business in order to provide liquidity for the majority owner.
  • A Series C Preferred Stock sale to provide funding for a rapidly expanding business.
  • The sale of a minority interest in a company which brought in specialized management talent.
  • The negotiation and settlement of an intellectual property dispute between a company and a former executive.
  • A Convertible Note offering for a business which has tremendous plans for expansion in 2018.
  • The sale of two businesses following the death of a major owner in each company.
  • The domestication of a foreign business into South Carolina which moved here for tax and quality of life reasons.
  • The formation of multiple new separate businesses in South Carolina in verticals from software to real estate.
We thank our clients, and we greatly appreciate the confidence placed in us by them and by our referral sources in 2017.  We look forward to working shoulder-to-shoulder with current and new clients as we help them tackle the challenges and take advantage of the opportunities they will see in 2018 and beyond.
