1. Among the countless worries for entrepreneurs who are starting or are already running a small business is the question of whether they need a business lawyer. The perception is that lawyers charge high rates and many small businesses don’t have much, if any, extra capital with which to pay lawyers. As a result, most small business owners only hire a lawyer experienced with business matters when confronted with a serious legal problem (example, when sued by a customer). However, legal help is a cost of doing business that often saves you money and helps your business in the long run. While you certainly don’t need a lawyer for every step of running your business, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of the cure.
  2. Entrepreneurship has long been a key feature of life in any capitalist society. Most of the biggest companies today started out as one-person operations, and small businesses continue to be essential to the local economy of any country. Whether big or small, all businesses need legal help and advice from time to time. Some large companies will hire in-house counsel, but most businesses have neither the money nor the need for a full-time lawyer on staff.
  3. A real estate purchase, an employment contract, a lease agreement, or settlement agreement, are a significant part of a growing and thriving business. A poorly written agreement that is unclear or ambiguous can lead to legal disputes in the future. Accordingly, no matter the size, scale or scope of your business, working with an attorney can help you address and achieve your immediate and long-term goals.
  4. Legal representation for business transactions and government contracts requires specific knowledge of federal and state business laws. It also requires the services of an attorney who is familiar with the manner in which business operates.
  5. A good business attorney will provide vital assistance in almost every aspect of your business, from basic zoning compliance and copyright and trademark advice to formal business incorporation and lawsuits and liability. Therefore, if you are planning to start your own business, it is important to keep in mind that there are numerous important considerations and decisions that must be made before you start a business. To avoid the pitfalls of not having sound legal advice before starting such a major endeavor, you should consult an experienced business lawyer to assist you. A business lawyer will advise you of the advantages and disadvantages of each business entity model, including tax and legal liability considerations, and will assist you in completing and filing the documents required to form your business.
  6. Successful business operations are based on careful planning, prudent governance and trusted legal guidance. Whether you are selecting an appropriate entity for your start-up company; structuring contracts, anti-competition construction, employment, supplier or licensing agreements; or acquiring, merging or dissolving a business, the expertise of the lawyer you choose can make a significant difference in your business relationships.
