Business & Corporate Attorneys & Lawyers | Minneapolis MN

We wrote the book on business and corporate law, literally. Richard Saliterman's publication, Advising Minnesota Corporations and Other Business Organizations [four volumes, hardbound] is the principal Minnesota business law practice treatise used by lawyers, judges, and academicians to understand all areas of the law affecting Minnesota businesses and employees.

In print for over fifteen years, this authoritative multi-volume set has become an established reference across the state. Due to its wide acceptance and authority many prominent Minnesota attorneys have contributed to the authoring of an expanded second edition (2011), including co-author Roger J. Magnusson – Senior Partner Dorsey & Whitney LLP, with contributions from Brett Larson and other members of our firm.  The second edition includes forewords from the deans of the University of Minnesota Law School, William Mitchell College of Law and Hamline University School of Law, as well as contributions from Peter Withoff – Senior Tax Partner at Faegre and Benson LLP.

Saliterman & Siefferman's business and corporate law practice group helps start-up companies move from formation and business planning to initial capitalization.
