A business podcast for Canadian entrepreneurs who want to build their business on a solid legal foundation.
As with many previous episodes, much of the content for the topics I talk about on this podcast come from questions that I receive from you. In this episode, I discuss legal expense insurance, which is something I haven’t covered yet, but I have been asked about and will be useful to know about as a small business owner. Today you’ll hear about:
What legal expense insurance is, what it’s specifically designed for and examples of some of the risks that may come up for a small business owner
Legal disputes commonly faced by small business owners and that may require legal expenses
Why it’s so important to understand what coverage you already have under your other insurance policies
How often to have the conversation with your insurance broker and specific questions to ask when you do speak with that person
The significant financial impact that legal issues can have on a business and the pros and cons to weigh as the owner
Why more and more small business owners are opting for legal expense insurance right now
