What Is Business Law in Miami?
Business law defines how your company is formed, governed, and protected in contracts and disputes. In a fast-moving market like Brickell and Downtown Miami, clear legal frameworks prevent costly slowdowns and keep deals on track.
When Miami Businesses Need a Lawyer

Our Business Law Process for Miami Businesses
Our process at KEW Legal® is designed to make complicated business law straightforward and actionable.
Discovery & Strategy
Every matter begins with a strategy consultation, where we learn your business model, ownership, and risk profile. We assess entity type, governance style, and key contracts. This step allows our team to identify legal friction points early.
Many small-business legal disputes stem from unclear contracts or ownership structures, early discovery prevents most of them.
Structuring & Formation
Next, we formalize your entity under Florida Statutes 605 (LLCs) or 607 (Corporations) through Sunbiz. We draft operating agreements, bylaws, and shareholder or partnership contracts that balance flexibility with compliance.
For foreign investors, we coordinate registered-agent setup and cross-border documentation in English, Spanish, and Portuguese to allow for accessibility and precision.
Drafting & Negotiation
Our team drafts, reviews, and negotiates contracts covering employment, vendor services, commercial leases, and mergers or acquisitions. We focus on terms that protect you without over-complicating deals.
When negotiating real-estate clauses around Coral Gables or the Design District, we balance legal protections with business speed, closing agreements efficiently while maintaining enforceability.
Regulatory Filings & Compliance
Once your structure and documents are complete, we handle all state and local filings, licensing, and compliance reviews. This includes annual reports, fictitious-name registrations, and UCC filings with the Miami-Dade Clerk of Courts.. We verify each submission for statutory accuracy to prevent costly delays or penalties.
Ongoing General Counsel
After formation, KEW Legal® provides continuous counsel, contract renewals, dispute prevention, and corporate governance tune-ups. Clients describe this as “having an in-house legal team without the overhead.”
By maintaining long-term visibility into your operations, we spot risks before they escalate and make sure your strategy evolves with changing Florida law.

Local Business Law Trends & Codes in Miami
Miami’s business law environment in 2025 is defined by digital filings, updated Florida statutes, and tightened contract enforcement standards. These changes affect how companies form, operate, and protect their assets, especially startups and property-based ventures in Brickell, Coral Gables, and Wynwood.
Sunbiz Modernization & Faster Digital Filings
The Florida Division of Corporations (Sunbiz) launched a major filing-system upgrade in late 2024, reducing average LLC approval times from five business days to just two. This shift benefits entrepreneurs incorporating near the Miami-Dade County Courthouse or expanding into Florida from abroad.
As reported by Sunbiz’s 2024 annual statistics, the state processed 641,597 new business filings and more than 1.1 million document updates.
Updates to Florida’s Revised LLC Act (Ch. 605)
Amendments now require more explicit provisions for operating-agreement enforcement and manager/member duties.
KEW Legal® integrates these revisions into every new LLC document we draft, making sure our clients’ agreements meet current compliance. For existing companies around Downtown Miami or Doral, we review legacy agreements to prevent exposure under outdated clauses.
Noncompete and Worker Mobility Trends
Following federal discussions and Florida’s own case-law developments in 2024, courts in the Eleventh Judicial Circuit (covering Miami-Dade) are narrowing enforcement of noncompete clauses that overreach geographic or temporal limits.
Our team now focuses on non-solicitation and confidentiality frameworks that protect goodwill without violating new judicial interpretations.
