GROWING YOUR BUSINESS

How I can help your growing business?

There comes a point when you take a plunge with the next big step of your business. This may be such things as taking on office space, hiring an employee, winning a big customer, taking on associates or placing a large order with a supplier.

At this stage, it is more important than ever to get the legals right. Things that can go wrong if you don’t have a good contract protecting your position include:

  • An employee could sue you for unfair dismissal if you dismiss without notice and don’t have a contract recording the common situations when you can terminate without notice
  • One of your consultants could start up on his own and poach your customers if you don’t have a contract including restrictive covenants
  • a big customer could cancel its contract leaving you with wasted stock if you haven’t duly tied them into the order in a written contract
  • The landlord could put up your rent on your office space if you haven’t negotiated a cap on the rent increase clause in the lease
  • A big supplier could delay in delivering the order to you, leaving you with a shortage of stock and angry customers who haven’t received their goods by the promised date

It is always worth talking to a lawyer BEFORE things go wrong as it will be much cheaper and easier to put the protection into place at the start rather than trying to resolve a legal matter once something has gone wrong.

I can help you by providing the following affordable legal contracts:

  • Employment agreement
  • Consultancy agreement
  • Customer contract / service agreement
  • Supplier contract
  • IT supply contract
  • software development agreement

All of these contracts and guidance are available in my Small Business Legal Academy at a very affordable price. To see more click here.

Occasionally, I take on one to one clients and draft bespoke contracts for you.

I look forward to working with you whether that be as a member of my Legal Academy or as a one to one client.
