Legal Counsel for Food and Beverage Businesses

This page tells the story of the company — our mission, our history, and how we work. Looking for the attorneys themselves? Meet the team on Who We Are.

Over the last decade we’ve built a law firm with the food and beverage industry’s specific needs in mind. Regulatory compliance is the backbone of our practice: we offer an insider’s view on the FDA laws and regulations that impact your products, and label review — detailed guidance on compliant food-label formatting and marketing claims — is one of our fundamental services. RangeMe users and other growth-stage brands are especially welcome.

Whether you’re producing a single co-packed product or a multi-product private label brand, we’ve got you covered. With over a thousand manufacturing agreements behind us, we help you push production through a third party knowing the major commercial and legal risks have been detailed and addressed. We know you need to share your product formula to do business, and we help you share it without eroding your trade secrets. We’re general-practice savvy and handle corporate matters regularly — from routine housekeeping to raising capital, hiring and firing, and building out your trademark portfolio over time.

Smart leaders understand that in the food industry different legal disciplines must be orchestrated and mutually supporting to have optimum effect. FDA-regulated claims on a label need to be warrantied by a co-packer in a manufacturing agreement; not every new LLC member needs access to trade secrets; you can’t buy insurance without understanding the liabilities assumed in supplier agreements. Our goal is to guide the big and small decisions that impact a food business.

Our service plans make legal cost a predictable line-item in your budget and give you the general-counsel relationship your business deserves — an approach the American Bar Association journal recently featured. From farmers and manufacturers to shippers, importers, and direct-to-consumer brands, we serve the full food and beverage supply chain.

There’s a lot more information across the site, so look around — and if you have any questions we’re happy to talk about your business any time. Call (800) 559-4628, email info@foodlawfirm.com, or schedule a free meeting.
