You may need legal advice if you are planning to start, or already have started, an online business. There is free legal advice available and it is approved by the American Bar Association:

“…The American Bar Association launched the online resource at its annual meeting last week to help individuals and small business owners with questions about setting up, launching and operating an online store or other e-commerce venture. Among the sections covered are obtaining a domain name, selling out state and the rules for making refunds.”
