In business, when I think of lawyers, I think of them as people that helped to protect my family.
And what I mean by this is when you set up a company, you always want to set it up as a limited liability
corporation or an LLC so that if your firm goes belly up or if you get sued, then people can't come
after your house, your assets.
And I think of that as a way to protect or insulate, protect my family.
And you need to hire a lawyer as well.
Whenever you get a contract from a company that you're working for and the people that you work for
or work with are really good people.
I know that they're they're great people, that people I work with, I love them, their family.
But the people that they're employment contracts represents their own legal best interests.
The person you're working for gives you a contract.
She or he probably hasn't read it.
Their lawyer has.
And their lawyers job is to protect their client.
And so what you need to do is just hire your own lawyer on the side to take a look at that employment
contract first before you sign it.
And your employer will understand or your business partners will understand that all you're trying to
do is protect your family or the very unlikely event that something should happen to you.
If you get hit by a bus, you make sure that your family is taking care of.
