Small business big risk

Tax, GST, Personal Properties Securities, Sale and Purchase of Business 17 Sep 18

The claims scenarios LPLC sees in relation to small business often arise from exuberant purchasers who have just signed up to buy their own business, full of hope and enthusiasm. They cannot wait to get into the business, want settlement in just a few days, and only need the practitioner to check the contract and make sure there are no major problems. The information in this LPLC Practice Risk Guide guide is designed to help practitioners recognise the trouble areas and manage your clients in a way that best protects the client’s interests and their own position.
