Entrepreneurs may face legal challenges for a variety of reasons. In their quest to innovate and disrupt markets, companies may neglect or misunderstand laws and regulations, resulting in inadvertent infractions. Breach of intellectual property rights, noncompliance with industry-specific rules, or violations of labor law are some examples. In wanting to expand their business, entrepreneurs may overlook the necessary legal due diligence, such as obtaining appropriate permits or conforming to tax rules. Entrepreneurs must be well-informed about their industry’s legal situation and seek expert counsel when necessary.
