LEGALITIES OF A STARTUP
There is no age limit to start your own business. If you have an idea that you want to materialize into a successful business venture, there is a lot of paperwork involved. It starts from the legality of the name under which you wish to register your business. If a name is taken by an already existing firm and is trademarked, you cannot use the name.
So, to ensure that you are doing things correctly, it is best to engage a law firm that will give you the genuine and best advice.
An experienced firm knows the nitty-gritty of setting up a business and will help you start your business with minimum trips to the government offices.
