You may know that equity is what gives you ownership of your business. But, it is equity structures that safeguard that ownership and allow you to grant ownership to others. Done properly, they can be a tool to supercharge recruiting, retain star talent and reward top team members. Done incorrectly, it can have negative tax impacts on you and your team, can open you up to legal risk in the future and can even be used to kick you out of your own company.

Equity is a complex area with many legal considerations. Join business litigation attorney Michael Pike as he discusses how to create a fair and transparent equity structure to set your business up for success.
