the Price of Legal Services for Small Businesses

I paid an attorney $500 to help me set up my small business. The cost of $500 included setting up a sole proprietorship, writing up contracts for my business, setting up liability insurance, and discussing all of the legal aspects of setting up my small business.

My husband and I recently started a small business that specializes in servicing already installed epoxy-stone flooring. We needed to go to an attorney to set up our contracts and to help us form a sole proprietorship. The time spent with the attorney was very valuable in helping us to understand the basics in setting up our small business, including what is required by law in Ohio to start a small service business. We are now more confident that our business is legitimate in the eyes of the law.

Before you decide to start a small business, you should contact a lawyer that specializes in small business to help you set it up. You can call around, because some attorneys will offer you a package price that will include everything you need to get your small business up and running. Getting an attorney is definitely money well-spent, because you will know that you are on the right track.
