You’ve invested countless hours to build your online business so that you can make a difference in the world in your own unique way.
Why would you risk NOT protecting it?!
Let’s protect your online business, income, and boundaries. ™
Legal doesn’t have to be complicated and pricey.
What you need is easy-to-understand legal information that you can customize to fit your business.

Hey hey! I’m Nicole.
I’m a wife, mama, attorney, and small business owner.
I help online entrepreneurs protect their businesses, income, and boundaries with my easy to use attorney-drafted legal templates.



When I started my business, I knew contracts were important, but never knew just how important they really are. I found Nicole and her online shop after many consultations with other lawyers, and was blown away with how perfectly her templates worked for my business. They’ve protected me in disputes, and when there’s an occasional tiff with a client. Nicole’s templates are 100% worth the investment and should be one of the first things you invest in as a business owner.
I just want to say how amazing Nicole Cheri Oden is! Her legal templates are a life saver for small business owners! She keeps things simple and straight forward yet has you covered from A to Z. Running a small business is stressful enough. Who needs legal woes? Not I! Thank you, Nicole, for your amazing services!! I am a loyal customer for life and will refer you to my customers now who are starting small businesses!
I am thrilled with my template purchases from Nicole. She provides an amazing service with her templates, they come with great instructions to tailor them to your specific needs, and she was great about clarifying via email when I got stuck on a couple spots. I am finally able to relax knowing that the legal part of my business is done and was pretty pain free too. I could not be happier, best self-care for me and my business. Thank you Nicole!
