I sat down with Dave Lorenzo on the Inside BS Show to discuss what business owners should consider when hiring an attorney and the importance of having a team of subject matter experts available to help when needs arise. During my conversation with Dave, I answer several questions regarding how I engage with clients and what business owners need to know when dealing with legal issues impacting their business, including:
- Do I need a lawyer to start a business?
- Should I work with a litigator of a transactional attorney?
- What questions should I ask a lawyer before I hire her?
I really enjoyed my conversation with Kimberly Prescott on HR & Cocktails about the challenges employers face as many companies were hoping to return to fully return to the office this fall.

Businesses need to stay on top of updated guidance and mandates, especially since businesses have more options than they did this time last year.
