Businesses of all types and sizes face many challenges to operate successfully today. Agricultural and industrial businesses, however, confront especially burdensome problems. Stressors include compliance with the intricate network of ever-changing federal, state, and municipal laws, and the near constant threat of civil liability. For business owners in these industries, it is important to have strong legal counsel from attorneys with particular familiarity in these areas of the law.

At Tiesenga & DeBoer LLP, we have over a century of combined experience providing skilled guidance and representation for industrial and agricultural businesses throughout Illinois. Our lawyers have an in-depth knowledge of the common issues businesses in these industries face, and we have what it takes to survive and thrive in the face of difficult challenges. We provide comprehensive guidance on all legal matters including business formation, sale and dissolution, contract drafting and review, purchase and sale of commercial property, special use real estate, commercial litigation, tax law, and other complex issues. We understand that legal issues often arise unexpectedly, and our attorneys hard to remain accessible and responsive to our clients when you need us most.

Industrial Businesses

For a business to build a manufacturing plant or similar facility, they must purchase or lease commercial real estate that is zoned for industrial use. If the land is not already zoned for industrial, it may be possible to apply for a variance or special use permit with the local municipality. In addition to zoning ordinances, businesses must comply with environmental regulations and all other federal, state and local laws. We assist industrial businesses through all steps in this process to help them avoid common pitfalls to successfully establish operations in new areas.

Agricultural Businesses

Farming businesses can range from small family operations to large corporate businesses. In either case, agricultural law encompasses a wide range of unique legal issues. We work with agricultural businesses of all sizes, providing comprehensive guidance on matters such as buying and selling of farmland, agricultural land use issues, leases, property line disputes, and many others. Many farms are small businesses with significant land value but very little liquid capital. In such instances, effective complex estate planning strategies can help families and businesses preserve their farmland and minimize the effects of the estate tax.

Industrial and agricultural businesses face numerous unique and complex challenges. At Tiesenga & DeBoer LLP, we put our depth of experience to work to help businesses in these industries stay successful for the 21st Century and beyond.
