  • C corporations and S corporations
  • Limited liability companies (LLCs)
  • Limited liability partnerships (LLPs)
  • Professional corporations
  • General partnerships
  • Sole proprietorships

In conjunction with business formation, we help draft or negotiate the partnership, operating or shareholder agreements and assist clients with licensing and regulatory compliance.

Beyond startup, Darling & Wilson, PC, provides ongoing consulting for business contracts, purchase or sale of business assets, commercial lease agreements, land development projects and other transactional matters.

Business And Commercial Litigation

While we always strive for early and cost-effective resolution of disputes, we are prepared to go to court to achieve the objective or protect your business. Our trial lawyers have experience with many types of business litigation, including:

  • Breach of contract
  • Partnership disputes
  • Business dissolution
  • Commercial lease disputes
  • Real estate deals

We will explore all remedies, from demand letters and direct negotiations to representation in arbitration or litigation.

Our founding attorney, the late Curtis Darling, was recognized as a pillar and a philanthropist in Bakersfield and the surrounding communities we serve. We strive to maintain that trust with our business clients through quality legal work and personalized service. As a boutique firm, we are able to offer individualized attention and tailored solutions.
