Thank you for your question. Please permit me to assist you with your concerns.

My name is ***** ***** I am a licensed attorney that has been answering questions on JustAnswer since May of 2009. I am happy to help with your question. Please allow me a moment to review your question and to compose a reply or ask you questions to best understand your unique situation.

I am sorry that you find yourself in this situation. I will help as much as I can. One moment while I type up my response.

Hello,

Would this be a 'brick and mortar' start-up, or a virtual start-up?  Please advise!

Hello,

Nice to meet you as well.  I am reviewing the requirements just to be clear, and if you are creating this in Florida, I am not seeing a COLI requirement.  So no, this does not appear to be necessary:

Sincerely,

You are most welcome and glad to help!

I am sorry but that is not something that I can answer for you--that is a condition that a customer is requesting, it is not a requirement which means that you can accept, refuse, or negotiate for different terms.  That is a business question for you to answer as a business owner, not a legal requirement.

I hope that I was able to answer your questions in full.

If you have additional questions, you can ask them directly to me here: https://www.justanswer.com/law/expert-isaac-esq . Please make sure that you say “For Isaac Only...” to ensure that the question is directed to me. Although I cannot always give good news, I am straightforward. If that explains everything to your satisfaction, please do not hesitate to reach out to me again.

You can also add me to your favorites at the bottom of the page so you can get to me more directly in the future.

Sometimes mistakes are made and someone other than me could respond to you. If that happens and you wish to continue solely with me, please tell them to opt out and I will get to the question once I am available.

Thank you very much!

Sincerely,

Isaac, Esq.
