What types of insurance does my business need?
Your business law attorney can provide you with all the pertinent information needed to get your business up and running and maintain a high standard of service.

The insurance your business needs will depend on several things, such as the type of business you own, the liability involved with your business activities, the type and number of employees, etc. You may need any of these:

Business owner's insurance
Property insurance
General liability
Malpractice insurance

Business interruption insurance
Malpractice/professional liability insurance
An umbrella policy
Car insurance for company vehicles
Business interruption insurance
You may also be required by law to offer to certain employees:

Worker's compensation insurance

Health insurance
Our attorneys can make sure your insurance complies with State and Federal requirements and we can perform risk-assessment analysis to see if additional insurance would be beneficial.

Do I need a Colorado state license for my new business?
Licensing statutes are designed to protect consumers and ensure quality service. If you visit the dentist, you assume that the legal qualifications have been met. If you hire a plumber, you assume the plumber is licensed and has a certain depth of knowledge.

The attorneys at Zakhem Atherton are well prepared to help new businesses with all the intricate details. The type and scope of your business will determine your licensing requirements. Professional practices will require individual professional licenses, and trade businesses must be operated by licensed trades people.
