On several of the questions, James was taking the approach
of what would best protect my interests. This was especially apparent when
dealing with making sure that I have the legal rights to do what I want with my
photography when dealing with people. “Businesspeople
sometimes refer to their lawyers with terms like business prevention
department. They may be reluctant to ask an attorney to draft a contract for
fear of the time and expense that lawyers can inject into the process.”(Introduction
to Business Law, Beatty Samuelson, p208). When it came to the LLC area of my
questioning, concerning liability and how to allocate my personal assets once I
do form an LLC, this was an area that he had to do some extra research about,
so he could give me a concise answer. To do this, he didn’t give me an answer
right away, but did research on those specific questions and was able to email
me with either the answers he found in his research or the proper place to look
for the information I would need to deal with the issues. “Lawyers have a different perspective—their primary goal is to protect
their clients by avoiding litigation, now and in the future. For this reason, lawyers are trained to be pessimists”.
(Introduction to Business Law, Beatty Samuelson, p208) On several of the
questions, he gave me advice to help best protect myself, or gave me advice on
who to talk to in order to best protect myself, my assets and my business.
