You’ll find plenty of Texas business attorneys who can handle your transaction. Yet few help you strategize for future growth or identify situations that may set you up for a partner dispute down the road.
This is where Begum Pelaez-Prada Business Law is different. We help create your legal foundation to be as strong as your business.
With experience that ranges from simple company formations to complex partnership structures, our team brings a business owner’s mindset to every legal matter. You also benefit from bilingual counsel that works fluently in English and Spanish. So nothing gets lost in translation when your deal crosses borders or cultures.
A typical law firm handles your business OR your estate plan. We can work on both together, so you protect your business, family and legacy.
Begum Pelaez-Prada Business Law is based in San Antonio, serving clients across Texas and beyond.
Below you’ll see the areas of business law where we excel. The difference with our approach is, we don’t treat these as separate services. They’re all parts of the same strategy.
For instance, a business formation without the right governance structure can leave you exposed down the road. A merger without estate planning in mind can undo years of careful succession work. We help set up your business today to protect the legacy you’re building for tomorrow.
Drafting for Disagreements: How Smart Companies Prepare for Partnership Disputes is now available on Amazon.
If you’d like a free copy, you can request one directly through our website. Simply reach out and opt in to receive firm updates and insights, and we’ll send you access to the book at no cost.
This book is written for business owners, founders, and partners who want to avoid disputes before they start and understand how governance documents actually work when pressure hits.

Contact UsOwning a successful company begins with an idea. Planning and building a business from the ground up takes dedicated work. Making a dream into a reality requires commitment and serious drive. There are several factors to keep in mind when starting a business. One of the most important is guaranteeing that your company is compliant and up-to-date with federal and state legal requirements. An owner must also ensure they have a good legal framework and contracts to protect them from lawsuits destroying what the owner has built. Working with an attorney who is well-versed in business law could prove extremely beneficial for a small business owner.
Companies must be structured in a way that provides owners with legal protection. A very important factor is the form of business structure. There are many options, ranging from sole proprietorships to S-corps, partnerships and LLCs. Speaking with a knowledgeable business lawyer in San Antonio could help you determine the best path to protect your future. Also, putting the right agreements and contracts into place helps add legal protections for a business. However, agreements and contracts must have precise language to shield owners from legal liability and litigation. The right attorney knows what language to include and what contracts to use in order to protect or minimize, as much as legally possible, the owner’s particular business from liability. One size does not fit all, and one form of contract does not work for all businesses. It is incredibly important to get the right San Antonio lawyer to help you write and review your contracts.
