Scenes involving twisted limbs and copious amounts of blood are often what first come to mind when people think of serious injuries. However, some serious injuries may not show any outward signs of trauma, at least not immediately. It is important to keep in mind that just because a person is not bleeding, it does not mean that he or she has not suffered serious injuries.

You may have recently begun to understand this type of scenario after a recent car accident. You suffered blunt trauma in the incident that caused serious injuries but not in the ways you may have expected after a severe crash.

Divorces can shake up a lot of things in your life. Perhaps most notable of these is your family structure. What about your company, though? The end of your marriage may adversely impact your relationship with your business partner and cause your partnership to crumble.

Unless you signed a prenup before marriage (or a postnup after) that protects your business, you'll need to prepare your business partner for what's to come as your divorce unfolds if you didn't sign a prenup before getting married. You'll want to start by pulling your partnership agreement to see exactly what the agreement may say about your ownership rights. If you received reliable counsel when setting up your partnership, you might have a contingency agreement. This type of contract generally spells out what happens with your interests in the business if a life-changing event happened to either one of you.

Georgia business owners may find it challenging to locate commercial real estate that suits the unique needs of their companies. Upon finding an appropriate space, there may be a sense of urgency to move forward with the lease as fast as possible. This is especially true in a competitive market, but it is not always the most prudent course of action for a small business. 

Before signing a lease, you will want to make sure you are not exposing yourself to any unnecessary risks. Negotiating the terms of a commercial lease instead of signing a generic contract will lessen the chance of unexpected expenses and complications that could cost you time and money. There is no one-size-fits-all contract that is detailed and fair.
