MAKING LEGAL MISTAKES IS EXPENSIVE But sometimes money is the least of all dangers of not following the law

You might go to prison

There are No Shortcuts, No Experiments, No “Maybe’s”

SO WHICH LAWYER IS GOOD FOR ME?

Page 13: Why Should a Startup Hire a Business Lawyer

FOCUS ON “FIT”Find a lawyer that you feel you can trust, who understands you and speaks

your “language of business”

Or you could face a difficult relationship

SENIOR DOESN’T MEAN RIGHT

You want a right seniority level for the task at hand

You wouldn’t want a junior associate to negotiate your

contract, would you?

SPECIALIST, NOT A STUDENT

Find a lawyer who knows the subject at hand and doesn’t learn on your dime

You're paying for the job done, not for the education
