Why Business Owners Shoul…

An attorney is an essential part of any successful business team, however, business owners too often rely on lawyers only to “get them out of trouble.”

The most successful business teams include legal advisors on the front end of many decisions for the following reasons:

  • An attorney is a business owner’s trusted advisor and helps the owner avoid risk. There are many legal issues to consider when operating a business, and having a trusted legal advisor at the ready is a good idea to avoid costly litigation;
  • Because laws continually change, investing in legal assistance before drafting contracts saves both time and money;
  • An attorney helps business owners understand legal issues; and
  • Business owners who are sued or those who need to sue someone for any number of violations will quickly need their legal advisor.

Help is available

While most business owners probably won’t need a lawyer to help through every business day, it’s important to have him or her ready when legal matters arise. Owners who deal with time-consuming and complex issues should retain a lawyer to help them with a variety of ongoing legal tasks.
