Starting a Business in Illinois.
Many business owners consider legal services only when their firms are in trouble.
Attorneys also can provide professional help when dealing with other parties such as financial institutions, owners of possible store or plant locations, union officials, governmental bodies, franchising companies, contracts with suppliers and customers and insurance coverage negotiation with employees. In addition, other problems may arise requiring the services of an attorney. For instance, the employer may be served with wage deduction orders against employees which, if not handled properly, can result in personal liability on the part of the employer. The business may become involved in disputes with its trade creditors. The business may have disputes with both present and former employees.
