Who are we?
Why are we qualified?
What’s going on here?!
I’M A BUSINESS LAWYER AND INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY STRATEGIST FOR INNOVATIVE COMPANIES, AND THE CREATOR OF SMALL BUSINESS BODYGUARD. I’VE BEEN PROFILED IN FAST COMPANY, ENTREPRENEUR MAGAZINE, AND ON MSNBC, AND MY PRACTICE HAS BEEN FEATURED IN FORBES, THE WASHINGTON POST, AND VARIOUS OTHER FANCY PUBLICATIONS.
No biggie.
My non-traditional law firm, Rachel Rodgers Law Office, has disrupted the legal industry and made it easier than it’s ever been for startups and leading-edge businesses to work with experienced attorneys. In my former life, I worked for the New Jersey Judiciary, nonprofits in New York, at a premier lobbying firm in Washington, D.C., and on Capitol Hill in the Senate Office of Hillary Rodham Clinton.
When I’m not taking care of clients, you can find me baking in the kitchen (barefoot, with cocktail in hand), running after my two toddlers (count ‘em, two!), hanging out with my hubby (who builds motorcycles, which totally ups my cool factor, right?), or spending time in France, my absolute favorite place on the face of the planet.
The Crew
Small Business Bodyguard is built by an incredible team of brilliant, hilarious people, including various lawyers, an operations team, marketing team, and some pretty dazzling customer service peeps. Working for SBB is kind of like marrying into a mob family minus the guns and vendettas, but what we’re saying is we stick together and we take care of our own, so you can expect the best service you’ve ever experienced (or else) from a smart, excited team of people whose sole focus is helping you cover your bases, cover your assets, cover your ass.
“There’s a lot we do in business that we do on faith, and most of the time, that works out just fine. But sometimes, there are challenges and legal issues that we don’t even know exist and that can bite us pretty badly.
It turns out our lawyer, Rachel Rodgers, created this project as a way to help with the challenges you know you have as well as the ones you don’t.
I’ve gotta tell you: legal stuff puts me to sleep, bores me, and scares me in equal parts. But what I like about the Small Business Bodyguard project is that it’s written in a fun and engaging way. Oh, and it’s absolutely for Owners!”
