LPA for Freelancers and Self-Employed: Protecting Your Income
LPA for Freelancers and Self-Employed: Protecting Your Income
You are self-employed. Your income depends on you showing up and doing the work.
But what happens if you cannot show up?
The Self-Employed Vulnerability
Employees have sick pay and colleagues to cover. Self-employed people have nothing.
If you cannot work:
- No income
- Clients waiting
- Invoices unsent
- Business accounts frozen
What Cannot Happen Without LPA
Your business bank account: Nobody can access it Your invoices: Nobody can send them Your clients: Nobody can communicate on your behalf
The Self-Employed Calculation
Three months unable to work without LPA:
- Lost income
- Outstanding invoices uncollected
- Lost clients
- Income managed by attorney
- Invoices collected
- Clients retained
Protect Your Self-Employed Income
You built your business. Protect it with LPA.
