https://www.l4sb.com/blog/sbas-500-million-small-business-rule-has-small-business-owners-worried/ The U.S. Small Business Administration has proposed a rule that would let corporations with up to $500 million in annual revenue qualify as “small businesses” for federal contracting purposes. Advocacy groups warn this redefinition could flood the small business contracting pool with much larger competitors, squeezing out the very companies the designation was meant to protect. For small business owners, the proposal is a reminder that regulatory definitions matter — and that having an attorney review contracts and compliance obligations has never been more important.

https://www.l4sb.com/blog/when-honorary-board-seats-become-legal-liabilities-lessons-in-nonprofit-fiduciary-duty/ Serving on a nonprofit board or as a trustee is not a ceremonial honor — it’s a legal role that carries binding fiduciary duties of care, loyalty, and obedience. When board members treat their position as symbolic rather than substantive, the results can range from costly litigation to full-blown Ponzi schemes. Recent high-profile cases, including questions raised around the Kennedy Center’s governance, illustrate exactly how these failures unfold and why nonprofits and their leadership need experienced legal counsel before problems escalate.

https://www.l4sb.com/blog/why-your-business-might-need-to-change-its-entity-type/ Businesses convert entity types when their current structure no longer matches their liability exposure, tax situation, growth plans, or ownership needs. Common triggers include seeking outside investment, adding partners, reducing personal liability, or optimizing for tax treatment.

https://www.l4sb.com/blog/ai-is-already-in-your-law-practice-is-it-governed/ Most attorneys think of AI sophistication as a binary: either you’re using ChatGPT or you’re not. That framing hides the real exposure. Even firms that feel “ahead” on AI typically have six live work-streams they haven’t fully staffed — each with its own malpractice, confidentiality, or competitive risk.

https://www.l4sb.com/blog/warning-to-clients-about-ai-use-in-legal-matter/ AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, and Copilot are everywhere now, and it’s natural to want to use them to make sense of a legal matter — summarizing a letter, organizing documents, or taking notes on a call. But when it comes to your legal matter specifically, a few common habits can create real problems: they can expose confidential information, and in some cases they can waive the attorney-client privilege that protects your case altogether. #

Clients who hire lawyers need to be careful about how they use AI, as it relates to the information and attorney communications of a lawsuit.
