David is presenting a seminar on legal and business issues in starting a professional consulting practice at the Society of Actuaries 2008 Annual Meeting in Orlando Florida. He will be discussing topics such as competing against a former employer, setting up an LLC or other entity, contracts and statements of work with customers, employment agreements and covenants not to compete with employees, independent contractor agreements, setting up a virtual firm to handle specific projects, making a deal with your partners, and the perils of taking a minority interest in a company. David has presented at many conferences for the Society of Actuaries, and is consistently one of the highest-rated presenters. If these topics interest you, David has posted a series of articles addressing these issues on this website, in the Articles & Publications section.
