Basic Training: You Only Get Hurt By The Ones You Love

Basic Training: You Only Get Hurt By The Ones You Love

By Nina Kaufman, Esq.

Today’s basic training involves a sad story. A woman gave her heart to another . . . and to his business. What thanks does she get? She gets jilted, in more ways than one. Yet another reason to have a business prenup if your personal relationship sours.  Read on . . . Q.:  I was working with my fiancé on a business idea we both developed. We are co-founders of this business. However, while I was working around the clock on this business, he went behind my back and put it in his name. He did this because, he says, he had the intentions of marrying me and thought it would be “cleaner” to just get married and split half (I have e-mail records of all of this). I also have e-mail records of our correspondence of our business, as well as my booking of a social conference for us to attend, plane tickets, etc. I created this entire website with him, and have even been a ghost writer on his account as well.

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.
