In this 10-15 minute presentation, Matthew will cover some small business legal basics, such as:

• Common legal mistakes made by small businesses

• Contracts businesses should have in place

• Business structures and whether yours is still fit for purpose

• Managing risk before it becomes a legal problem

• When to seek legal advice and when you may not need it

Whether you're a start-up, growing business, or established operator, this session will provide practical tips to help protect your business and avoid costly surprises.

About Business Before Hours

Held on the third Thursday of each month, this casual event invites small business operators and sole traders to join us for a bacon and egg roll from 7:30am to 8:30am. A 10-15 minute presentation is delivered on the month’s topic. It’s a chance for people to connect and learn about events, business programs and services in a way that respects busy schedules.

This monthly program is aimed at breaking down the barriers between business owners and information about region-specific resources and initiatives that can support their business planning/management and work-life balance. Contact us to request to be a presenter.
