Business laws disclaimer and terms of use
How to use the small business law guides: general information only, from a CPA firm and not a law firm, with no advice, no professional relationship and limits on copying.
Prepared by Prem Tax and Accounting Corp. Last checked against official sources on October 29, 2026.
Prem Tax and Accounting Corp, a U.S. CPA firm in Aurora, Illinois, writes every page in our small business laws section, and these terms cover them all.
- Our publisher is a CPA firm and not a law firm, so each page is general information and education, never legal, tax or accounting advice.
- Reading a page does not make you our client or start any professional relationship.
- Do not lean on a page when you make a decision, face a deadline or respond to a notice.
- A page may be out of date. Check the official source or talk to an attorney.
- Bulk copying, scraping and AI training need our written permission first.
Accuracy and currency
We compare numbers, dates and thresholds with official sources, and each page shows the date we last checked it. Still, laws, rates and penalties change, agencies and courts shift how they apply them, and some points are unsettled. Pages are not updated the instant a law changes, and we make no promise that a page is complete, up to date or free of errors. We do not know your facts, and whether a given law reaches you turns on them.
Examples and links
Every example here is invented, for illustration only. Links go to government and other sites we do not control.
No advice and no professional relationship
Each guide explains a law in general terms and ignores your facts, so it is not advice for your situation. We give no legal advice and do not represent anyone in legal proceedings. A professional or client relationship with us starts only if both parties agree to it in writing. Reading a page, sharing it or sending a message through the site does not create one.
Limits on our responsibility
Prem Tax and Accounting Corp, its owners and its staff accept no responsibility for a loss, or for a decision made, from use of these pages, to the fullest extent the law allows. Our site-wide terms and privacy pages apply as well.
Copyright and permitted use
The copyright in our own text, tables, charts and slide shows belongs to us, and so does the copyright in how we select, organize and lay out the material. The text of the laws we cover, along with most official government guidance, is public.
Reading these pages, linking to them and printing a copy for personal use are all fine. We must give written permission before anyone copies pages in bulk, scrapes them, republishes them, or uses them to train or supply data to an artificial intelligence or text-and-data-mining system, and we reserve those rights. To ask, use our contact page.
Common questions
Are these guides legal advice?
No. They are general information from a CPA firm. For legal advice, ask a licensed attorney.
Can I share or copy a page?
Sharing the link is welcome, and printing one copy for yourself is fine. For anything more, ask us first through the contact page.
Can I rely on the numbers on a page?
Use them as a starting point. Each page shows when we last checked it, but laws change, so confirm with the official source.
