There are certain things that you just shouldn’t do in life: don’t
drive without wearing a seatbelt, don’t answer “yes” if you significant other
asks if her jeans make her backside look big, and don’t start a small business
without the advice and expertise of a corporate lawyer on your side. Each one
of these life lessons could cause major damage to your well being, but you
don’t have to learn the hard way.
Corporate lawyers play an important role in a company,
especially a company that is just starting out. At this point in the process is
where most of the vital documents to running your company are drafted and
signed. From applying for government licenses and permits to drafting employee
and contractor agreements, corporate lawyers build a legally stable and
protected foundation for the future of your company.
After your business is established, corporate lawyers still have a
plethora of matters to attend to. They facilitate securities, abide with tax law,
ensure that you have code compliance, protect your intellectual property, advise you
through bankruptcy, organize documents for financial reporting, facilitate
mergers and/or handle human resources issues.
You may be thinking that lawyers are expensive. Can you really
afford one? Consider this: a corporate lawyer protects all those invested in
your company; you, your shareholders, employees, creditors, contractors, and
customers. By advising in business transactions, they are safeguarding all that
you have worked so hard to build for your company.
When you find a loophole in a contract or get served with a
lawsuit, then it’s too late. A lawyer’s fees to draw up a contract or to file
for a copyright is just a fraction of the expense that it would cost to go to
court to fight on your company’s behalf. Moreover, many corporate lawyers
charge by the hour so you can create a budget and prioritize what issues are
most pressing.
You are busy managing the detailed workings of your company. Let a
corporate lawyer tend to the legal side of things to give you peace-of-mind and
to protect your business from the inside out.
