Soares Law Firm Presents: Legacy & Liability
Legacy & Liability is a practical, entrepreneur‑focused workshop presented by Marcio Soares of Soares Law Firm. This session guides business owners through the essential legal steps of starting a business correctly, protecting it as it grows, and preparing it for a smooth transition — whether passing it on, selling it, or closing it responsibly.
Participants will also hear from EmpowerNet’s partner who specializes in helping business owners clean up and organize their businesses for sale or succession. Together, these insights give entrepreneurs a clear understanding of how to build a business that can stand the test of time.

The Empower Exchange
The EmpowerNet Exchange is a high-impact, 90-minute session designed to turn "networking" into DOING. We know that as a small business owner, you often have resources someone else needs and you definitely have challenges that someone else has already solved. Instead of just trading business cards, we trade solutions. This is where our community ecosystem comes to life, facilitating real collaboration to drive economic growth and social impact.
Join us in the EmpowerNet Exchange and be part of a community that doesn’t just talk about support it shows up for it. Bring your challenges, your ideas, and your resources, and leave with new clarity, connections, and momentum to keep building.
