In this episode I chat to Ingrid Fernandez who is a freelance consultant lawyer and I quiz her all about what small businesses need to do to be legal compliant in the UK.
She has lived and breathed commercial law for 10 years, working for both Magic Circle and boutique law firms. But she decided it was time to hang up her suit, swap board rooms for coffee shops and use what she’d learnt to help people starting out in business feel confident about legal things.
The entrepreneurs. The small business owners. The freelancers. The dreamers with big plans and sometimes small budgets, but a whole load of passion. That is who she want’s to help and in the process she became a small business owner too.
I’ve mentioned before on the podcast how my business finances has been an area where I have stuck my head in the sand. Well a couple of years ago I decided that enough was enough – I needed to sort out my pension. After some research and recommendations from other small business owners I decided to go with Penfold and I am so glad I did. I love that I can keep track of everything on their brilliant app – I can easily increase or decrease how much I pay in each month and it gives me so much peace of mind knowing that I am actually investing in my retirement as someone who is self employed. I also really appreciate that I can also choose to invest my money in sustainable options within the app. If sorting your pension has been something on your to do list check out Penfold and if you sign up with my affiliate link we both get £25 added to our pension pots!
