Why You Should Hire an Attorney to Review Your Business Plans
Starting a business is an exciting time for an entrepreneur. It is often the result of years of planning and research, as well as seizing opportunities and taking risks, and a little bit of luck. After expending all that time and effort laying the groundwork to start a new company, don’t let legal issues get in your way. Here are some reasons why you should hire an attorney to review your business plans.
Establishing Structure
One of the first things you need to decide is the structure of your company. An attorney can review your business plans and help you establish whether your company should be a limited liability company (LLC), a corporation, or even a partnership. Depending on you and your new business’s needs will determine what structure the company should be.
A skilled business attorney can help you navigate this process and advise you of the various business structures available to you. Taking the necessary steps when starting a business can give you peace of mind and confidence as you grow your company.
Hiring Employees & Adding Partners or Members to Your Company
A lawyer can review your business plans and assist with adding partners or members while advising you on hiring employees. When hiring new employees, there are federal and state laws that you need to abide by when interviewing, hiring, and if needed, firing.
If you are bringing on a business partner or member to your company, it is best practice to put agreements in place in the beginning, so everyone understands the expectations. Should disagreements arise, a well-drafted agreement will give all parties the peace of mind knowing their assets and reputations are protected.
Reviewing Contracts
In addition to reviewing agreements pertaining to partners and new employees, as a business owner, you will want to have an attorney look over your client contracts so that you can best protect your company. As you are starting a new business, every dollar matters and the agreements between you and your clients will ensure payment under the terms of the contract.
