"I'm not sure where the 1 star review with political party references cam from but I can tell you my experience was terrific. When you set up a FREE meeting you get to decide what you want to talk about. Once they know what you're looking for they put someone "in charge" of your "account" with them. I put account in quotation as it's free - there's not really an account - I see it as a file folder. I have 2 businesses that I grew from zero to successful and was really just looking for someone to bounce some ideas off of and get a few ideas from someone outside my entities. The person assigned to my account set up a meeting and brought a 2nd person in to join in the discussion as he felt the 2nd person would have some great input. I absolutely enjoyed the meeting and got some great ideas to take back - during the meeting I mentioned growth and being an employer with actual employees and not sure exactly what paperwork I would need for this as I've never dealt with any sort of HR function in my entrepreneurial ventures. He promised to get with a 3rd person to get better info for me as it wasn't really in the toolkit of the two I sat down with. Within a week or so, I received an email listing what I should (and shouldn't have) in employee files. I wouldn't recommend them for true Legal and Tax advice if your hope is to be able to say you did something they said was fine and be free and clear of responsibility. They'll give you what they can find or what they know but it's nothing more than the best advice they have based on experience - not a lawyer or accountant in your pocket. All of this was absolutely free. Being established and successful we had more of brainstorming and idea bouncing session and it gave me some great ideas to look into and insight on what I'm doing. Like all brainstorming sessions - not every idea will be tried or even considered - but picking the brains from well experienced people who you might consider experts in their field (although they may not - they seemed quite humble) is an invaluable resource. I wish I knew about them when I started as I'm sure my learning curve would have been dramatically shortened. When they say free - they mean FREE. It's not one of those - get a free consult and if you REALLY want to get somewhere sign up for our "premium" service for better attention sort of thing. They do offer seminars - most of the have a fee involved but it's negligible. I sat in on one a few years back about tips on how to structure your business legally to protect your personal assets. Again - not a lawyer with the absolute legal advice you can walk away with and think you know it all - but great tips on organization, structure, and setting up separate accounts. I think I paid $15 for the session. New or looking for new ideas this is a great place for advice or direction for your business. By the way, I consider myself to be a republican leaning moderate but that never came up during any part of the process."
