This is my first Nolo Press book. Fishman has written an excellent, concise guide for the self-employed. The book clearly explains legal issues and, when the going gets too complicated for this midlength book, refers the reader to other sources. I think it paid for itself in about 30 seconds. Ultimately it should save me thousands, or maybe I should say, thousands of hours of rummaging around.

This is far better than "Inc. Yourself" and some other books I've seen on the subject. Fishman is very sharp, and he must have character as well--otherwise why would he spend his time writing law books for the small entrepreneur? I hope he's flourishing wherever he is.

Why not five stars? I'm just fighting rating inflation . . . five stars ought to be for "War and Peace."

This was a great book. I would recommend it to anyone thinking about starting their own business. I am a software consultant and business was not a topic I concentrated on in school. This book gave me the confidence and artillery to get out here on my own and do what I have done in the IT consulting industry for two years.

This was an excellent book, but now look for Fishman's new edition with the improved title: Working for yourself.

Discusses everything you need to know in an easy to read format, e.g. taxes, legal agreements, benefits
