I pursued a career in law because I wanted to help people. I knew nothing about running a business. Once I started my own small business, I knew I could help even more people to legally protect their businesses and brands through proper business formation, intellectual property protection, and proper contractual agreements. As the business side of the law firm grew, I saw how useful my litigation and business management skills were in small business legal matters. -Amanda Bynum
