In addition, there is liability of the company, if you have incorporated, and your personal liability. If you have not incorporated (formed an LLC or corporation), then you are personally responsible for all debts and judgments relating to the business. If you incorporate, it may lower your need for insurance coverage.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
