I could save money by using LegalZoom, so why should I go for a lawyer instead?

You absolutely can save money by using an online service, but the problem is that you will likely get what you pay for.  Web services aren’t tailored to your specific needs, which means that they leave you open to a slew of problems if you’re unlucky.  You’d want to go to a great doctor if you were sick with a serious illness, why wouldn’t you choose a great lawyer for something as serious as your company’s future?

Why do I need a corporate lawyer, anyway?

Corporate lawyers are there to protect honest, hardworking business owners.  Great lawyers can help reduce risk, point out major issues that could arise, and also negotiate on your behalf.  It’s also important to remember that we live in a very litigious society, and the right contract can help you avoid a needless lawsuit and major financial loss.  Having a lawyer on your side is just the smart, self-preserving thing to do.

How much will all this cost?

It all depends on what you’re trying to do.  Lawyers might be able to offer a flat fee for some services, but others may need an hourly rate.  Regardless of the way that it’s billed, the goal remains the same.  It’s all about helping you make the right decisions for your company.
