What does a business lawyer do?
A lawyer can help you structure you business entity into a corporation, partnership, limited liability company (LLC), sole proprietorship, association or joint venture. An attorney can also represent business people — including business owners, business partners, managers, directors, officers, shareholders, contractors, subcontractors, consultants and employees — to protect them against the contingency of breach of contract or nonperformance.
When do I need a business lawyer?
Generally speaking, if you are a business owner seeking to protect your business and your assets, it is a good idea to hire an experienced business attorney. At the Campbell Law Firm, PC, we can help you protect your assets from creditors and lawsuits, and we can advise you on compliance matters to reduce the risk that you will run afoul of government rules and regulations. The firm also routinely assists business clients in negotiations, which can result in more favorable transactions for your company. Common junctures for retaining the help of a law firm include those times when you are:

Can I afford to hire a business lawyer?
The question is actually not whether you can afford a business lawyer, but whether you can afford not to hire a lawyer. There is a lot at stake in business ventures.
