Outside General Counsel for Your South Florida Business

When you’re building or running a business in South Florida, legal issues don’t wait for a convenient time. Partnership disagreements, contract disputes, employment conflicts, lease negotiations, and succession planning can all demand immediate attention—often when you need counsel you trust right away.

KEW Legal is a business law firm in Coral Gables and Sunny Isles Beach that acts as outside general counsel for business owners and investors across Miami-Dade and South Florida. We focus on the legal matters that define business life: partnership and vendor disputes, employee issues, buying and selling businesses, contracts and commercial leases, investment property, and commercial evictions. We work with owners and investors who need a lawyer they can call when issues arise, not just when they’re in crisis.

Who We Help

We work with business owners, investors, and operators across South Florida—from Coral Gables and Aventura to Brickell, Doral, Fort Lauderdale, and throughout Miami-Dade and Broward counties. Our clients include entrepreneurs managing their first ventures, established business owners navigating complex transactions, investors managing commercial real estate, and owners managing operations from abroad who need reliable local counsel for matters like commercial evictions and lease enforcement.

How We Work With You

As your outside general counsel, we take a practical, responsive approach. Rather than waiting for problems to escalate, we help you understand your options early, negotiate from a position of clarity, and structure deals and agreements that protect your interests.

When disputes arise—whether between partners, with vendors, or over contracts—we work to resolve them efficiently. We handle the negotiation, documentation, and litigation if necessary, so you can focus on your business.

When you’re buying or selling a business, we guide you through due diligence, negotiate terms, structure the deal, and handle the documentation. The same care applies to succession planning: we help you think through how your business transfers to the next generation or new ownership, and we put that plan into legal form.

When employment issues emerge—misclassification disputes, non-compete questions, separation agreements, or policy questions—we advise employers on their obligations and options.

For investment property and commercial real estate, we handle lease negotiation and enforcement, eviction proceedings (including for owners managing properties remotely), and the legal structure of your real estate holdings.

For contracts and commercial leases, we review terms before you sign, negotiate on your behalf, and enforce them if the other party doesn’t perform.

We’re available by phone, email, and in-person consultation at our offices in Coral Gables and Sunny Isles Beach. We respond promptly because we know that business moves fast.
