It doesn't mean you need to be spending 10 or $20,000 a year, but it means you are getting to know each other.”“The good news is if your business is small, that means your risk is also probably small.” “My first question is always, well, what does your contract say? And if the answer is we didn't have one, that just makes things much harder to figure out how to bring the two sides together to an agreement.”“There are ways that you can put these in place that don't require, you know, spending 1000’s of dollars on a lawyer, which probably doesn't make sense if you're a newer business owner.”“I think most people don't realize that you have to look at the law of the state where they're located and your own state where your business is located.”“If you hire a contractor…they own the rights and whatever they create, which is totally bananas, like you would think it would be the opposite. But because they're contractor, they own the rights. You can change that in a contract. Connect with Autumn:⭐ Connect on Instagram @awbfirm⭐ Connect on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/awbfirm⭐ https://awbfirm.com/  Connect with Allison:⭐ Connect on Instagram @allisonwalsh⭐ JOIN OUR FREE COMMUNITY: https://www.facebook.com/group....s/shebelievedshecoul Check out book recommendations from the show here
