I’m Sharon Prysant, and I’ve been a technology and business transaction attorney for more than 25 years.
Fifteen of those years were spent at one of the world’s largest law firms representing some of the world’s largest companies . . . and I’ve worked on more than $6 billion in deals for clients ranging from startups to Fortune 25 corporations.
I’ve also taught and published on legal topics.
And throughout my many years in the legal world, I’ve seen firsthand the kind of problems that can arise when businesses don’t have a proper foundation in place.
Often, business owners are so excited to get going that they don’t stop to make sure they’ve properly protected everything they’ve worked so hard for . . . and they mistakenly believe that creating a separate legal entity is just a formality that can be “handled later.”
But as long as you’re operating as a sole proprietorship, all your personal assets are on the line . . . and all it takes is one lawsuit to lose everything.
Setting things up properly from the beginning protects against unnecessary risk — and it’s often the most efficient and cost-effective choice.
