Small business makes up the majority of our economy and is the main driver of whether we succeed as a nation or not.  In these turbulent times, small businesses are still in need of legal representation, but they are becoming more cost conscious.  Many small businesses have shut their doors since the recession began, but the ones who are surviving need to protect themselves now more than ever.  Yet, small businesses are hesitant.  Everyday corporate legal work is either being done by the company itself, at its peril, or being given to low cost attorneys with little or no experience.  Exposure to liability has increased because of this hesitation by companies to hire attorneys for their businesses.

Jalesia McQueen Gadberry understands the need for reasonably priced legal counsel, especially during these tough economic times.  Ms. McQueen Gadberry has worked at top law firms in the St. Louis region and can provide corporate legal work for a variety of industries at a much lower cost to small business.  She has worked with small start up businesses, as well as more established small businesses.  She has conducted mergers, acquisitions, contract drafting, contract reviewing, corporate governance and other corporate legal work necessary for running the business.  Because of McQueen Gadberry LLC's emphasis on flexible fee arrangements, we work with the small business to arrive at an appropriate arrangement, such as a monthly retainer or flat fee.
