If you own or operate a business, it is virtually certain that some aspect of your operations is governed by Federal, state, or local regulations. Almost all manufactured products are subject to rules on their materials and construction, to protect consumer safety. Food handling and distribution is governed by overlapping Federal and state rules to preserve public health. And many service industries are regulated as well. Running afoul of these rules can result in substantial costs and penalties. If you run your own business, you should consult with an attorney to be sure you are in compliance with all applicable rules. We have researched regulations and advised local Oregon businesses that provide everything from desserts to online media to international conventions.
