When my husband I decided to start a business, we didn't think about the legal aspects of doing so. We didn't realize that purchasing business insurance, getting building permits and making investments all required some type of legal advice. But after speaking to a close friend, who also happens to own a small business, we contacted a business attorney. Now, we have the legal smarts to make the best decisions for our business, as well as the legal representation in case something happens to our company. I hope that you find my blog helpful and informative for your own business. It's a great resource for finding the legal advice, resources and guidance you need to get your company up and running.

Receiving SSI benefits is one of the best ways to have financial security when you are disabled, but the money can stop for numerous reasons. For instance, if you suddenly gain possession of a large amount of money, it is possible for your SSI benefits to be stopped.
