Home-Based Business Coverage
If you've ever had a legal question regarding your home-based business and wondered what it would cost just to ask questions, our Home Business Supplement to our legal subscription plans may be right for you. Our Home Business Supplement gives you access to legal help when you need it for a wide variety of home-based business legal concerns. You'll receive a year's worth of unlimited consultation and a multitude of services for far less than hiring a lawyer on your own. You might be self-employed, but you don't have to go it alone.
If you're a landlord, our Home Business Supplement is a valuable resource to help you draft contracts, lease agreements, evictions, and more landlord-tenant issues for private (non-commercial) property owners.
Receive advice and consultation on home business legal matters, plus one hour of research time on each matter, as needed.*
A provider attorney can also advise you on business legal matters, including taxes, patent, trademark, copyright, or antitrust issues. You'll receive up to three annual designated consultations, up to 30 minutes in length.**
Your attorney will also be able to write letters or make phone calls on behalf of your home-based business. You'll receive any combination of 12 letters or phone calls each year for both in-state and out-of-state business legal matters, each on a unique business matter, with one follow-up communication if a response is received from the third party.***
Contracts and other business-related legal documents can be complicated or confusing. Your attorney will be able to review business legal documents for your home business, up to 4 documents per month up to 25 pages each, pertaining to both in-state and out-of-state business legal matters. If you need more than four documents reviewed in a month, a flat rate of $75 for each additional review applies.+
Late-paying clients are an unavoidable part of doing business. Your attorney can help you collect money owed to your home business by writing collection letters, up to four per month for both in-state and out-of-state debt collection matters. Additional letters are $75 each; in Washington State, a flat rate of $25 for each collection letter applies, with additional letters at $75 each.
Experiencing an IRS Audit is stressful, but your provider attorney through your Home Business Supplement can help you with items on Schedules C and E of your personal federal income tax return. Business entity tax returns are not included.++
