So how can an attorney help you with your new business venture?
The most common reasons for needing an attorney are:
Navigating the many forms and requirements of legal documents, like incorporation documents, that are involved.
Assurance the startup is being done right.
Enabling you to focus on other aspects of the business so you don't have to spend time learning the legal processes.
Support with specific tasks like trademarking your name, reviewing lease documents, discussing potential legal structures, and preparing incorporation forms.
Online legal form providers don't always do it right. Businesses aren't one-size-fits-all, so blanket legal documents don't always work.
