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.
