From Daneen Skube, Ph.D., in the Seattle Times came this question-and-answer about business partnership: <<Q. I’m thinking of going into business partnership with my friend. Is there any question I should consider to help me make a decision? A: Yes — would you marry your friend? Marriages are not the only unions that have a bad end when two people aren’t compatible.>> This reminds me of the question I was often asked as a child when, for example, blowing out birthday candles. “Make a wish,” my parents would say. “If you had only one wish, what would it be?” asked well-meaning relatives.

I know first-hand that running a knowledge-based service business has unique challenges. It’s so much easier when you have an advocate in your corner. Over the past 25 years, I’ve worked with thousands of New York business professionals who want a legal advisor to guide and support them as they navigate the business world.
With wide-ranging experience as a business attorney, strategist, and media authority, I bring the added power of a business lens to the legal issues my clients are facing.
And because I’ve been a business owner myself, I’ve lived through the soaring highs and devastating lows – like when my first law firm failed. So I understand what’s involved to serve great clients, detect business risks early and build a true legacy.
I can’t get those 12 years back. That’s why I have made it my mission to ensure that business professionals like you can become wise and discerning leaders, build a solid business, and live your best life.
