What are the Legal Considerations for Starting a Business?
Starting a business involves several legal considerations:
Business Structure: Choosing the right legal structure (e.g., sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation) affects liability, taxation, and regulatory requirements. Licensing and Permits: Businesses must obtain the necessary licenses and permits to operate legally. Trademark and Copyright: Protecting the business's name, logo, and other intellectual property is essential.
