Young people don’t grow up expecting that their future will include being a litigant. And any business owner who has ever been there will tell you that the cost, not only in legal fees, is overwhelming. Disputes can be generated by a consumer action, a disgruntled employee, a greedy competitor, or be the result of divorce proceedings, bankruptcy, or shareholder disagreement. A governmental agency inquiry (zoning, IRS, DOL, licensing, etc.) is another source of litigation risk.
Fortunately, you don’t have to go through it alone.
