Keeping Unscrupulous Business Partners at Bay

Keeping Unscrupulous Business Partners at Bay

By Nina Kaufman, Esq.

It’s not just business partners that can be unscrupulous, as the article “9 Ways to Keep Hucksters, Schucksters, and Slimeballs at Arms Length When Starting Your Own Business” deftly points out.  There are creepy clients, promise-the-moon marketers, and flaky vendors who are out there, ready to infect the naïve with their less-than-full-integrity way of conducting business. As I’ve cautioned in this blog before, the article instructs nascent business owners to tread carefully, do due diligence, get the relationship in writing, and consult an attorney for guidance on the process, among other things.  Significantly, it wisely cautions readers to believe what they see.  Don’t hide your head in the sand — especially when it comes to ethical problems.  Nip it in the bud right away, or cut the ties and move on — fast.  The time and aggravation you save will be immeasurable. You deserve to be paid, protected, and prosperous. Kaufman Business Law can help get you there. Watch this short video to find out how. Watch our Video

Flying solo doesn’t have to mean going it alone.

I’m Nina Kaufman.

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.
