Andrea Sager, a small business attorney and owner of Legalpreneur is here with us today to share all about LLC’s. Legalpreneur is shaking up the legal industry by providing affordable access to legal advice for small businesses and entrepreneurs so Andrea is the perfect person to have on to talk more about this.
An LLC is something that we talk to our students about, and something that as business owners that we need to consider. Andrea dives into an explanation of what an LLC is, why it protects business owners, and why all business owners need an LLC whether they are making money or not.
We chat about what the risks are if you choose not to have an LLC, whether you should also file for a trademark and copyright, and the reason you may receive conflicting business advice from a lawyer versus an accountant. She goes over three ways to start an LLC which include doing it yourself, working with a third party and working with an attorney. We also chat about other considerations that new bloggers should think about besides an LLC which are having a contract, filing for a trademark and a copyright, and having a privacy policy and terms and conditions on your website.
