Small business owners are regularly confronted by a bewildering array of legal questions and problems. Ignoring them can lead to disaster -- but with lawyers typically charging $200-$300 an hour, calling one to answer routine legal questions can be a fast track to the poorhouse.

Fortunately, you have a better alternative. Legal Guide for Starting & Running a Small Business clearly explains the practical and legal information you need to:

. raise start-up money
. choose between a sole proprietorship, partnership or LLC
. get licenses and permits
. buy or sell a business or franchise
. negotiate a favorable lease
. insure your business
. hire independent contractors safely
. understand small business tax rules
. pick and protect a good name
. resolve legal disputes
. adopt the best customer policies
. enter into strong contracts
. cope with financial problems
