A little history: How Kerry Carroll LLC | DIY Legal Templates came to be
This is my marvel origin story, if you will. I graduated law school and spent some blissful time living and working for an international law firm in London. I loved London (obviously! How could I not?! I got to "attend" the Royal Wedding of Kate and William and by attend I do mean I stood outside of Buckingham palace with thousands of my closest friends).
But, firm life was not for me. I missed the people connection. I actually enjoyed doing "doc review" but the hours at my desk with just me, my coffee, and my computer left me feeling isolated and decidedly uninspired.
From Park Lane law firm to entrepreneur
I pivoted to education and started my first business. It was stunning how quickly the law slipped back into my everyday hustle. I was *constantly* having to turn to my legal research skills when figuring out a GDPR privacy policy for my website or a client contract or how to hire a VA. I had a business coach and let's just say that the contract templates that she graciously shared with me were...um, well they were lackluster.
It was clear to me that so much essential legal info was missing from the 1-3 page documents.
And I saw it again and again. I hired a fitness coach for personal training and she didn't even have a contract! Nothing to protect her from the real potential of liability when someone as spastic as me tried to lift weights.
Similarly, a photographer friend explained the woes of "family photographers" getting in the way of specific shots at weddings and the difficulty of completing the client's preferred shot list with beautiful photos if she was spending half her time shooing family member's and their iPhones out of the frame. Yikes!
Spotting that Grand Canyon sized gap in the legal landscape that DIY Legal Templates bridge perfectly
I had been able to navigate the legal realities of the business world with a little hustle because of my background but it was becoming obvious that so many other coaches and creatives just didn't know what they didn't know.
So, Kerry Carroll LLC | DIY Legal Templates was born as a way to pay forward my legal know-how and empower other entrepreneurs to protect and confidently grow their businesses without having to shell out either $300k for a law degree or huge law firm retainer fees.
Now, on to how DIY Legal Templates can transform how you do business.
