Setting up a business
Setting up a new business is big challenge, yet very exciting. We love working with new businesses and developing great relationships based on trust, mutual respect, value and of course high quality legal advice and service. legal issues are vital when setting up a business, but they always fit within an overall set of initial decisions which need to be made, including :-
- Is your business selling goods or services or both ?
- What is your attitude to risk and how risky is your new business concept ?
- Where will your business operate from ?
- Will you employ staff at the outset ?
- Funding issues
- An overall business plan including projections and marketing strategy
