Doing Business Abroad
By businessbroad | January 16, 2007
Depending on how you wish to expand your business, you may find yourself conducting business abroad. While that can sound exotic and fun, it can also be a HUGE legal headache. I’ve had a bit of experience with importing products from Asia, and it’s not a nightmare I care to repeat any time soon.
To minimize the craziness, there are firms like Harris & Moure International Law Firm for small businesses. Rather than catering exlusively to huge companies, they work with the little (and medium-sized) guys. If you don’t believe that they’re good guys, check out their China law blog. As professional blogs go, it’s extremely well written and informative.
As time goes on, it’s going to be harder and harder to get a competitive edge as a small business. Going international may be exactly what it takes to find better sources, find new target markets, or just expand. Finding a good international law firm can help you navigate the potential problems (and trust me, there are plenty of them).
