Synopsis

The all-in-one business law book

Whether you’re just starting a small business, or your business is already up and running, legal questions come up on an almost daily basis.

• decide between an LLC or other business structure
• save on business taxes
• get licenses and permits
• choose the right insurance
• negotiate contracts and leases
• avoid problems if you’re buying a franchise
• hire and manage employees and independent contractors
• attract and keep customers (and get paid on time), and
