Washington State Agencies Enforcement

There are various state agencies in Washington with duties that are created by state law. The agency themselves are in charge of the drafting and implementing regulations and enforcing the regulations in instances of non-compliance. Many agencies have broad powers, including the power to regulate ownership and financing, security, advertising, and impacts on public safety and the environment. We work with out clients to understand their businesses and ensure our clients remain well-informed and well-advised to avoid any undue issues. If you have questions on regulations, talk with one of our business attorneys to learn more.

In-House General Counsel Services

In addition to traditional representation of businesses, we offer in-house general counsel legal services. If you have a need for an in-house, on-site attorney presence, we offer fixed rates for full on-site days. We offer this as a cost benefit to small and mid-size businesses whose needs do not warrant a full-time attorney, but who have consistent legal counsel needs.

We will work together to determine an appropriate schedule to fit your needs. On that day, an attorney from Halverson Law will be on site with your business. During that day, your business will have the undivided attention of your in-house attorney, and the in-house attorney will work diligently to address as many deliverables as possible.

Give us a call today and speak with a business attorney or stop by to set up an appointment. We have plenty of off-street parking, a friendly and professional staff, and a comfortable and casual office environment. We’re looking forward to helping you and your business grow.
