Legal, but let's make it easy

Hello, I’m Emma, Legal consultant supporting founders, entrepreneurs and small businesses like you to safeguard your business with ease.

My legal experience has been an eye-opening journey. After qualifying as a solicitor in 1998 with a top 5 law firm in the UK, I specialised in commercial litigation. It was glamorous work, advising household name clients. But the more litigation I saw unfold, the more it became clear how destructive and expensive it is. And so I shifted focus. Rather than helping people win in court, I was driven to help them avoid it altogether, by putting proper protection in place for their businesses.

I set up my consultancy and created this course to support founders like you to have the legal protection you, your business and your clients want and need.

Because as a founder myself, I know what it’s like running your own business and juggling all the things you have to do before you start on the client delivery.

Don't bury your head in the sand

When it comes to legal requirements, it can feel like a minefield of information, so it’s not surprising many entrepreneurs bury their heads in the sand when it comes to business insurance, data protection and contracts.

But as I’ve seen, this can lead to more, and often much bigger headaches when things go wrong.

Which is why I created this course. Packed full of my legal expertise and experiences it will help you get everything in place to start your business or scale it, with the peace of mind and protection you need.

You don't know what you don't know

Write your awesome label here.
Sadly, many founders, entrepreneurs and business owners consider the legal side of their business only once things have gone wrong. Costing them more than just money, damaging their business reputation and diverting time away from serving clients to firefighting the crisis.

In the worst case scenario, the business itself may not survive.

Whether you’re just starting out or you’re already well established, ensuring your business has the legal framework it needs is the best investment you can make.

The good news is, it doesn’t have to be hard. Protecting you, your business and the finances you’ve earned can be simple. And I’m here to show you how.

I’ve created this course for entrepreneurs like you, to educate and empower you to establish the legal foundations your business needs so you can rest easy knowing you’re protected.

I understand it’s often the thought of a hefty price tag which stops new business owners from seeking legal help in the beginning, which is why I’ve created this course as an affordable way to get the legal knowledge you need to understand and most importantly, take action.

My promise to you

No legal jargon.

No eye watering by-the-hour legal fees.

Only clear advice and the steps you need to take action on each of the elements.

From starting up to scaling, in this course you'll find 9 modules and a wealth of downloadable resources, including customisable templates for you to tailor in minutes and use in your business.

Even better, you’ll have lifetime access to the course, which will be updated annually in line with legal changes so you can rest assured you have the knowledge your business needs only a few clicks away.

By the end of the course, you’ll be clear on what your business needs and how to make it happen so your company is legally supported, ready to start, sell and scale.

Testimonials

"Emma is an absolute dream to work with. I was launching my first online course and I had a few queries about which of her amazing templates would be right for me. She replied really quickly and had space to speak to me within a few hours. We jumped on a Zoom and she asked questions about my course and service and created a bespoke set of T&Cs within an hour. I was absolutely blown away - these parts of the creation process can feel heavy but she made it feel like an absolute breeze.

I decided to download her Website Legal Bundle from her Template Shop, to start a fresh on my course subdomain and these were so easy to put together, with instructions on how to amend and clearly highlighted areas where I needed to put in my relevant information. Within 30 minutes, I had all of the templates personalised, individual webpages built for each and I was moving on with the next task ahead of launch.

I now see Emma as part of my team and my go to recommendation for getting legals sorted with absolute confidence. 
I never thought I'd be that excited about paperwork - my ADHD brain finds low dopamine things like this something I procrastinate on. But it was all so simple and easy and took away hours of searching who to appoint to help. I genuinely never thought I'd be this excited about legals. Absolutely epic support - thank you so much!"
rebecca douglas, nature aligned brand photographer

Testimonials

"The contract template was so thorough and included things that I probably would not have thought about including myself. The level of detail is really amazing. You really do feel in safe hands when you purchase a template from them. It was so easy to adapt for my business."
alice, meta ads manager & funnel strategist

Testimonials

"Emma helped me out massively on many occasions, I had some extremely basic contracts and she really whipped me into shape and made sure that every aspect of my business was covered. She gave me some great advice and really made me think about certain situations actually, that maybe I wouldn’t have thought about. She’s also really helped me with any client liaison, she’s been a great mediator and just really given me that security and that legal knowledge that I just don’t know.

Running my own business I wear many hats but having to think about the legal side of it, it’s just overwhelming. So, I feel very fortunate that I actually got recommended by a good friend, that Emma was the person that I needed to talk to. If you’re looking for amazing legal support, legal advice, anything to help you in your business, please get in touch with Emma the Good Legals Club, she is without a doubt excellent at what she does and really great support. Always there for you.”
