Business Services

Unfortunately for many business owners, law and business don’t always mix well.  Many business owners grow tired of trying to figure out how to protect themselves from liability while at the same time working to run a profitable business.  Additionally, some attorneys can be out of touch with the needs of business owners.  Catalyst is here to help.

Here are a few of the questions we oftentimes hear from business owners:

How do I collect money from people who owe my business money or breached a contract?  Are people who work for me independent contractors or employees?  What is their tax status?  Are my employee handbooks and manuals comprehensive?  Am I shielded from business-threatening liability?  I’m thinking of bringing in a business partner, so how do I protect myself and my business?  How can I draft a business plan to attract potential investors?

These are common questions business owners ask themselves everyday.  Usually, there are only two options for business owners facing these questions: 1)  Ignore the question and cross their fingers that a problem won’t present itself, or 2) Hire a lawyer working on an hourly fee.  Since many businesses believe they can not afford to call an attorney due to the cost, most businesses revert to option 1 and ignore the questions.

Catalyst offers a solution to business owners.  First, the attorneys at Catalyst have decades of combined business and entrepreneurial experience.  We aren’t just attorneys.  We’re businessmen who have worked through many of the issues that may be facing your business.   Further, because Catalyst doesn’t charge by the hour, we offer answers and solutions to questions you may have for your business at transparent and scalable fixed costs.  You may have a single issue or a list of problems to address.  Regardless, you’ll be quoted a flat fee up front before incurring any expense.

Further, Catalyst’s coaching program is a lifeline for businesses throughout the Phoenix-metro area.  Those enrolled in the coaching program pay an affordable monthly fee that gives them access to one of our attorneys whenever they need us.  Our coaching program is a limited scope engagement that allows businesses to have an attorney on speed dial without worrying about an hourly rate.  It’s like having in-house counsel.

Starting A Small Business

Starting A Small Business

Interestingly enough, if you’ve started a business and engaged in a business activity, you’re already a sole proprietorship.  A sole proprietorship is not a legal entity.  You don’t have to file any paperwork with the state to start a sole proprietorship, as it already exists the moment you begin operating as a business.  This is […]

Business Partnerships

This article is written as a followup to my article on Starting a Small Business.  A partnership is another business structure for small businesses.  In exploring possible options for your business, check out the Starting a Small Business article for more information. “What about a partnership?” Like a sole proprietorship, a general partnership doesn’t require […]

How Does Catalyst Find a Debtor’s Assets?

September 2, 2016

The attorneys at Catalyst believe that their creative approach to debt collection and resolution sets them apart.  Catalyst attorneys think outside of the box to make determinations regarding a debtor’s financial situation and ability to pay.  Catalyst has strong relationships with qualified private investigators who use Deep Skip Trace to track down debtors and their […]

How Does Catalyst Collect a Debt?

September 2, 2016

Collecting a debt starts with determining whether the debt is in the form of a judgment.  Simply put, has a court made a ruling that the debtor owes the creditor money?  If so, the debt has been reduced to a judgment.  This allows a creditor to legally seize assets, cash, vehicles, personal property, and real […]
