Business Lawyer in Traverse City, Michigan

Revision Legal’s Traverse City business lawyers provide legal counsel for the full lifecycle of a business — from entity formation and early-stage contracts through commercial disputes, partner conflicts, and exit transactions. We serve entrepreneurs, established businesses, and technology companies throughout Northern Michigan who need experienced, practical business legal support.

Business Legal Services

  • Business Formation — Advising on the right entity structure (LLC, corporation, partnership) and handling the formation documents, operating agreements, and shareholder agreements that protect your interests from day one.
  • Commercial Contracts — Drafting and reviewing vendor agreements, customer contracts, service agreements, licensing deals, and NDAs. Identifying risk before you sign is far cheaper than litigating afterward.
  • Partner & Shareholder Disputes — Resolving disputes between business owners through negotiation, mediation, or litigation when relationships break down.
  • Mergers & Acquisitions — Representing buyers and sellers in business purchase and sale transactions, including due diligence, purchase agreements, and closing coordination.
  • General Counsel Services — Providing ongoing outside general counsel to growing businesses that need regular legal support without the cost of in-house counsel.
  • Trade Secret & Non-Compete — Protecting confidential business information and advising on non-compete, non-solicitation, and confidentiality agreements for employees and contractors.
  • Business Litigation — Handling contract disputes, breach of fiduciary duty claims, and other commercial disputes in Michigan courts and federal court.

Business Law for Northern Michigan Companies

Traverse City’s business community spans a wide range of industries — hospitality and tourism, craft beverages, specialty retail, professional services, technology, real estate, and agriculture. Each sector comes with its own legal needs, from alcohol beverage licensing and franchise agreements to e-commerce terms and software licensing. Our business attorneys work across industries and bring both depth and practical judgment to every client engagement.

Eric Misterovich, founding partner, focuses on business law with a background that includes understanding how businesses actually operate — not just what the legal documents say.
