Let's get legal. Should you hire a lawyer to create a contract? What about whether to sign one? Is it better to just close your eyes, hold your breath, and sign everything?

You’re invited to dip your toes into the scary legal waters that involve a lot of paperwork, some Latin, and a large pile of legal jargon that no one Jill’s ever met actually enjoys — all for the sake of figuring out if we really need to sign all the paperwork that flies back and forth in the small business world.
