Entrepreneurs often cite the limited liability protection afforded them by way of forming a corporation or a limited liability company as a primary purpose in creating the entity.  Sure, there is the aura of sophistication and achievement that comes immediately along with it (as well as several other benefits), but this personal protection seems to be a key factor in most formation decisions.

This summer, I completed my legal summer internship at Gutwein Law.  I am truly amazed at how much I learned in the 12 weeks that I was here.  From day one, the attorneys gave me exciting and complex issues to work on and these experiences allowed me to develop and grow as a professional and an individual. 

For those of you who have taken personality assessments in the past, you are aware that sometimes the results can show a completely different view of you and who you think you are.  For me, I had never taken any type of personality, work-style or behavioral assessment until I came to work at Gutwein Law.  I’ll admit, I was skeptical of what the test might say about me - did I know myself as well as I thought I did?

Worker classification is an important responsibility of any employer, with implications ranging from tax and withholdings liability to the employer’s liability for the worker’s conduct.  For tax purposes, the IRS has previously laid out twenty non-exclusive factors that it considered when making the determination as to whether a worker is an independent contractor or employee. 

We are very excited to announce that David Roberts had joined the Gutwein Law team and he will be opening our new Indianapolis office this summer!
