Homicide
Homicide is the 5th leading cause of workplace fatalities in the US. Gun violence in the workplace is a matter of increasing focus and concern. At the same time, gun laws in the State of Michigan have “loosened” (for want of a better term) making Michigan a virtual “Shall Issue” state for concealed weapon permits… Details

Business and Corporate Law

Business Disputes
Businesses small and large depend on superior counsel from their attorneys from start to finish. Our legal team has been involved in, and volunteers our time with, nonprofit local small business counseling services.
Limited Liability Companies
The most commonly asked question in a business lawyer’s career is: “I’m starting a business, what kind of business organization should I choose?” The most common forms of business organizations are Sole Proprietorships, Partnerships, Corporations and LLC’s. With few exceptions, proprietorships and partnerships leave the individual owner or owners exposed to PERSONAL LIABILITY for all of the actions of the organization. While there may be other valid reasons (such as tax reasons and low exposure to liability) to use those forms, the most commonly recommended forms of business organization are those which shield the individual from personal liability. Those forms are: Limited Partnerships (where the General Partner remains exposed to direct liability); Corporations and Limited Liability Companies (LLC’s).

Employment Discrimination
BREAKING NEWS!!! — It seems that is a headline for everything these days but our latest update on this topic is indeed Breaking News. When we last visited this topic, we told you that the Michigan Civil Rights Commission (MCRC) had adopted a new policy “interpreting” the Elliot-Larsen Civil Rights Act (ELCRA). That policy was to announce that in its interpretation of the law, the Commission concluded that employment discrimination based upon Sexual Orientation and/or Gender Identity was covered and PROHIBITED by ELCRA. At the same time, it announced it was accepting complaints based on alleged discrimination in those categories.
Non-compete Agreement
We are often asked “are non-compete agreements enforceable”? The problem is, we are usually asked this question when an employee who is subject to a non-compete is leaving his or her employment for “greener pastures”. The notion that said employee might have assigned away his/her right to work in the same industry with the same… Details

Construction Litigation
Whether you’ve got a complex commercial project or a small residential remodel, a contract on a handshake or a complex AIA contract, construction projects are a source of many disputes. Schenk, Boncher & Rypma attorneys understand not only construction law, but the construction process. As a client, this means you are not spending your money educating the attorney about what a load bearing wall is, or the effect of a change order. Our attorneys represent the interests of homeowners, contractors, engineers, suppliers, and commercial project owners in disputes on workmanship issues, construction liens, liquidated damages, termination of contract, payment issues, and change orders. In addition, Fred Boncher is an accredited arbitrator with the American Arbitration Association in the area of construction law.
Real Estate Transactions
Our law firm has direct and extensive experience in all types of legal issues connected to real estate including planning and zoning, boundary issues, contract issues, and real estate purchase/sale issues. Contact us for a free half hour consultation so we can discuss your individual situation.
Land Use and Zoning
Zoning and land planning issues are extremely complex and often involve constitutional due process and substantive due process issues. Our legal team has represented businesses and individuals in this area for over three decades. Every one of our firm’s attorneys is serving or has served on a local zoning board so we have a unique and deep appreciation for the issues involved in land planning. In particular, SBR attorneys have successfully represented sand and gravel (aggregate) mining operations and commercial and business developments. Our firm also represents numerous condiminium associations and developers who encounter these types of issues. If you have questions on zoning, planning, or land use issues contact us today to schedule your free 30 minute consultation so we can discuss your case.
Landlord-Tenant Disputes
Landlord/tenant law is very technical and provides an overwhelming bias in favor of tenants in the residential sphere. As a landlord, you want to be represented by a firm that can find the exceptions that favor you. As a tenant, you want to retain a law firm that can deftly utilize the law in your favor. We excel in this area because of our familiarity with the complex set of laws that govern the landlord/tenant relationship. In the commercial realm, it is important to have a firm that can draft lease documents, oversee the relationship, or negotiate the deal. Our legal team will handle these tasks with efficient advocacy. If you are facing a landlord or tenant issue, contact us today so we can discuss your dispute. We offer a free 30 minute consultation on new cases.

Personal Injury
For the past three decades our law firm has represented clients in personal injury accidents including motor vehicle accidents, product liability accidents, farm equipment accidents, and industrial equipment accidents. Representing Plaintiffs and Defendants alike provides an insight that not many law firms have. Our legal team’s expertise means that you will not only get excellent representation in trial, but you will have tapped in to our law firm’s connections to legal experts, settlement and negotiation expertise, insurance famiarity and more. These advantages are significant and rare. If you have questions on a personal injury or wrongful death case, contact us today so we can discuss your situation. We offer a free 30 minute consultation on new cases.

Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
SB&R is pleased to announce that effective immediately, all veterans and active-duty members of the US Armed Forces and all serving members of law enforcement will receive a 20% discount from our normal fees on all Estate Planning Services (Wills, Trusts, Patient Advocate Forms, Elder Care Planning, etc.) provided by our firm.

Power of Attorney
With the right counseling, you can have flexible options to plan for children and loved ones that gives you comfort that there will be no strife and needless expenses. Planning for the future is a necessity not only for those in their later years but for all adults. Even young couples should have a plan for their asset distribution to their children since the young are not immune from death. Generally our estate planning packages include a will or trust, power of attorney document, and patient advocate plan. Each of these components is important and will be customized to fit your needs and intent. Your plan should be revisited every few years or upon the occurrence of a life-changing event to make sure it is applicable and still conveys your wishes.

Foreclosure
Our law firm represents Independent Bank and we handle a lot of their foreclosure work, and mortgage & loan litigation, among other things. Throughout the past three decades we’ve dealt with a number of banks and are fully equipped to handle the issues they encounter. These previous cases provide us the expertise to handle individuals or corporate clients who have banking law issues or litigation involving banking issues.
Tax Law
Nevertheless, it may still be wise to use a non-limited liability form such as a proprietorship where the risks are low or may be adequately insured against. Most often, the reasons for doing so are based upon tax planning issues. We often work with our client’s accountant to provide the “right” answers to issues that are not strictly liability issues and we can assist not only in business planning but succession planning as well.
