220.  The #1 Legal Mistake New Entrepreneurs Make — And How to Avoid It" - with Latrice Smith, Esq.

Are you building your dream business on shaky legal ground? 

It’s a common — and costly — mistake. In this episode of Life After Corporate, host Deb Boulanger sits down with attorney and entrepreneur Latrice Smith, Esq., to unpack the legal essentials most new business owners overlook. Whether you’re choosing between an LLC vs S Corp, drafting your first client agreements, or just trying to figure out how to start a consulting business without screwing it up, this conversation is your legal GPS.

Latrice pulls back the curtain on the biggest missteps she sees founders make — from downloading generic business contracts off Google, to skipping crucial business formation documents that protect your assets. She also dives deep into small business legal advice that helps you avoid drama down the road, including partnership agreements, lease negotiations, and why a solid contract is worth more than a catchy brand name.

If you’ve been skipping the fine print, this is your wake-up call.
