https://youtu.be/vZASsvHz7Qw Leasing commercial property may seem like a straightforward deal on the surface, but there's subtle nuances that can come back to haunt you. One of the most common pain points we've found are CAM, or common area maintenance, clauses, which are common commercial leases. As your landlord maintains or improves the property, you can get charged with an ongoing fee that is based on how the landlord spends. It's clauses like these that often trip clients up and get them in contracts where they end up paying much more than they need to be. This is why it's important to have a lawyer look over your agreement before you sign anything. We at Davis Business Law are here to help ensure you don't make the same mistakes.

https://youtu.be/g9W7L6Aq-Xo The best way to fight an unemployment claim is to institute good practices around recordkeeping and documentation from day one of your business opening its doors. In most cases, unemployment claims are fired when someone believes they were fired without cause and the burden of proof falls on the employer to prove cause existed. This is where documentation is vital, as it gives you a record to point to and tangible proof you can present in court. If you need help getting started on putting these best practices in place, reach out to the team at Davis Business Law. We'd love to meet with you and help you protect and grow your business.
