Legal Considerations When Starting A Business: A Workshop With Opticliff Law

This workshop and Q&A session will address common issues entrepreneurs face when starting a business. You will discuss questions such as:

• When is it time to incorporate, rather than do business under my own name?
• Should I form an LLC, partnership, sole proprietorship, or a corporation?
• If I do business in multiple states (or hope to later), should I incorporate in Maine or elsewhere?
• How do my early decisions about company formation affect my ability to attract investors later?
• Does my tech company really need to incorporate in Delaware, or is Maine ok?
• How should business partners divide up duties and rights?
• What should I know about choosing a partner or co-founder?
• If I don’t have cash flow yet, is it okay to staff my business by using contractors/freelancers rather than employees?

This workshop and Q &A session will be presented by Zeke Callanan, Esq. of Opticliff Law.
