Stoked. Chuffed. Elated. Beyond excited.

That’s how I’d describe Agnew Law’s recent addition of our new Partner, Chandrika Shori.

Chandrika is a smart, exceptionally well-organized attorney based in Dallas, Texas, with a background working in-house for a multi-billion-dollar healthcare technology company. She strengthens the backbone of Agnew Law and expands what’s possible as we continue to grow.

We couldn’t be prouder to have her working with us.

As a business owner, sometimes you need to know what’s working, what isn’t, and what’s starting to cost you. For us, that was our website.

As we expanded into digital marketing, it became clear we were sending potential clients to a platform that couldn’t close the deal.

We spend our days guiding clients through practical business decisions; and it turns out, it’s just as important to take your own advice.

Instead of chasing bad money with good, we invested in a full rebuild, partnering with an exceptional web design team to position our site for real growth.

We are thankful to Studios for their exceptional work, and please check out the new site! 🌾🔥

Agnew Law’s Matthew Agnew had the opportunity to join Kansas Week last night alongside Representative John Carmichael, former City Councilman Bryan Frye, and Cowley Courier-Traveler Editor David Seaton.

They had a thoughtful conversation about several important issues affecting our state, including Kansas’s looming budget challenges, the new school voucher tax credit, and the tragic domestic violence case involving Marine veteran Ivy Unruh.

Matthew appreciates the chance to be part of a discussion that brings attention to issues that matter to our communities.

I want to say "Thank You" to the Derby Chamber of Commerce and to the people and businesses of Derby who came out to show their support for Agnew Law's ribbon-cutting earlier this month. The Derby Business Community truly embodies Napoleon Hill's words: "It is literally true that you can succeed best and quickest by helping others to succeed."

One year ago, I opened the doors to Agnew Law with a tiny dream—and, if I’m honest, a healthy dose of imposter syndrome. Starting a law firm from scratch felt like starting down a complicated path without knowing where it would lead or whether there would be light at the end.

But what a journey it has been.

I’m amazed by the trust so many have placed in me, the opportunities we’ve been afforded to help our neighbors and friends, and the growth we’ve experienced in just twelve short months. I never imagined that year one would look like this—or that I’ve had this in me.

There are far too many people to thank by name—but if you’ve referred a client, sent a word of encouragement, collaborated on a project, or simply believed in this vision, you’ve made a difference. Thank you.

A special thank you goes to my wife, Brandi, our daughter, Isla, and my law partner, Kita—they have been my foundation and greatest supporters. Your support makes everything possible.

Here’s to year two with our new office dog, Teddy!

Texas doctors—if you’ve been approached by a private equity group, don’t sign anything yet.

PE deals can offer big payouts, but they also carry major legal and operational risks—especially in Texas, where the corporate practice of medicine doctrine still applies.

I just published an article breaking down what physicians need to know before selling, how to structure deals around CPOM, and how to protect your long-term autonomy.

If you're a provider in Dallas or anywhere across Texas, this is a must-read:

Let me know your thoughts or reach out if you’re navigating a deal—I’m happy to help.

Compliance Confusion Continues for the Corporate Transparency Act

Whether you are required to file a Corporate Transparency Act report has changed week-to-week throughout December—leaving businesses confused and questioning their compliance obligations. There are piles of law firm articles discussing the intricacies of this drama, but I want to make this simple and easy for business. AT THE MOMENT, THE CTA IS NOT BEING ENFORCED, AND SMALL BUSINESSES HAVE NO REPORT FILING OBLIGATIONS OR DEADLINES. Here is what has happened:

1) Under the CTA, small businesses were required to submit a BOIR Report by December 31, 2024.
2) A Texas district court issued an injunction stopping the requirement to comply with the CTA by December 31, 2024.
3) The Fifth Circuit granted an appeal on the court’s decision but declined to uphold the injunction through the appeal.
4) This triggered the Federal Agency enforcing the CTA to extend the deadline to comply to January 13, 2025.
5) The Fifth Circuit reversed course and granted the CTA injunction while the appeal is being heard—stopping the requirement to comply with the CTA by January 13, 2025.

The Fifth Circuit will hear arguments on the CTA on March 25, 2025. Within a few months, it will decide whether the CTA is enforceable and the corresponding enforcement dates (if applicable). After the Fifth Circuit’s decision, this matter will likely be appealed to the US Supreme Court.

This is a polite reminder for Kansas-registered business formed in odd years that your Kansas Secretary of State Information Report was due in April. If it has not been filed yet, you have until Sunday to complete your filing. Otherwise, you will forfeit your business on Monday and the Kansas SOS will charge your business a fine to be reinstated.

You can file your information report or determine if one is required here: https://sos.ks.gov/businesses/information-reports.html

This is a SUPER simple process. But if you run into any problems, you can just text or call me.
