December 7, 2007, Newsletter Issue #76: Does business law provide for any licensure or permits that I will need?

Tip of the Week

The type of business that you are starting will dictate whether or not you will need a license or permit of some kind to do business in your area. There are always federal, state, county, city and local rules that should be explored thoroughly before officially opening your doors for business. This research will ensure that no complications arise that would compromise your new business.

Some professions require licensure, such as beauticians, doctors, lawyers, daycare providers, etc. There may also be fees or taxes that are charged by local governments to do business within that particular area.

Issues such as these might be one reason that consultation with an attorney specializing in business law might be in order, whether you're starting a new business or changing the status of your business.

Your local bar association will be able to provide names of attorneys in your area. Legal websites often can assist with the matching of professional expertise to your needs as well. These services are often free, fast and confidential and may save headache and heartache down the road when it comes to operating your business.
