Welcome to the McKinney Chapter

Presentation for female entrepreneurs on the legal issues they should consider when becoming an entrepreneur, ranging from organizational structure to partnership agreements and the other types of issues for which they should consider legal assistance prior to diving in to a new business. The presentation will cover the formation of the business entity and issues that the entrepreneur should consider, as well as the potential contract documents and registrations that she might need.  The basic takeaway is that one should not consult with competent legal and financial counsel prior to opening a business.  And, if she is already in business, identify some of the potential issues that she should be aware of as her business grows. 

The presentation does not constitute legal advice; however, my legal background and experience with business provide a framework for identifying those legal pitfalls that an entrepreneur may not have previously considered.
