How to Prioritize When the Legal Stuff Feels Overwhelming

Your to-do list is long enough when you're starting your business... Adding "get legal" to it can feel like just one more thing you don't have time for.

Tune in to hear the number one piece of the "legal stuff" I think is absolutely necessary when starting your business (even though it's not *technically* legally required).

Key Takeaways

• Most of the steps that we take as business owners when it comes to the legal stuff are actually about risk management, not about what is legally required. Things like contracts and LLCs are tools we use to make business less risky.
• Client contracts help manage expectations so both you and the client have a better experience and a better relationship (which leads to repeat clients!).
• An LLC is the best way to separate your personal assets from the risks of doing business, but forming an LLC is not legally required to start working with clients.
