I know that I certainly didn't when I set out. At first, this wasn't an issue but as my business grew, I realised that if I didn't teach myself about the legal rules in place and seek expert help, I would find myself in serious trouble.

Ending a relationship is a stressful process. As well as being emotionally taxing, that process is also legally complicated.
