8️⃣ There are eight general routes out of a business you own.
Family member. Key employee. Co-owner. Outside third party. Stepping back to a passive role. An Employee Stock Ownership Plan. Going public. Or liquidating the assets.
No single one is right for everyone — but you can't choose well if you don't know the list.

🗃️Ask a business owner what their exit strategy is and you'll usually get one of three things: a blank stare, a shrug, or "I don't have time to think about that."
Fair enough. But most owners don't realise it can take several years to properly position a business for sale or transfer.

Gilbertson Law Office Brand Protection
Registering a trademark is step one. Nobody tells you about step two. Protection only holds if someone's watching for infringement and acting on it when it turns up. Monitoring and enforcement are what keep the mark worth having.

Gilbertson Law Office Brand Protection
A trademark isn't just defensive. It's what stops a competitor using something close enough to confuse your customers. It's part of what makes your business worth something to a buyer or investor. And if you ever expand overseas, having one registered here gives you a foundation to build on.

Your name, your logo, your tagline — you built them. Do you own them?

Gilbertson Law Office Flat Fee Projects
Here's the quiet problem with hourly billing: it makes you avoid your own lawyer. You've got a question, but you picture the clock starting, so you let it slide. Then the small thing becomes the expensive thing. Flat fees take that calculation out of it.

Gilbertson Law Office Flat Fee Projects
Not every legal need is ongoing. Sometimes it's one contract you need drafted properly. One agreement reviewed before you sign. One specific thing, done and dusted. Flat fee projects exist for exactly that — defined work, defined cost, finished.

Gilbertson Law Office Flat Fee Projects
"How much is this going to cost?" is a question we like to hear. You should have the answer before any work starts, not after. Flat fee projects begin with a conversation about what you need, then a proposal with the number on it. You decide from there.
