I love reading the best of lists published at the end of every year. Feeling particularly nostalgic this year with another decade in the rear view, I read my fair share. Everyone has their own best of movies, books, and music lists. But I like to dig a little deeper. For example, The New York Times recalls 2019 in pictures. The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel calls out 2019’s unforgettable Wisconsin sports moments. The Atlantic curates the 50 best podcasts.
Those of us who own businesses live by lists and spreadsheets, especially at year end. But numbers don’t tell the whole story. Evaluating whether your business and brand are legally protected is key. For 2020, three issues should top your to do list.
Throughout 2020, I’ll highlight legal issues business owners should consider. Feel free to email topic suggestions to smelnick@melnickmelnick.com. Happy New Year!
