Currently most lawyers can\u2019t fill that role as they don\u2019t know how to communicate to entrepreneurs and owner-run businesses and because the hourly rate business model doesn\u2019t make sense for anyone other than a large corporate.\u00a0 Maushami and Aarya Legal saw the gap to re-imagine law the way entrepreneurs would like to purchase it: simple, friendly and with fixed fees you can budget for.<\/p>\n<p>Aarya Legal has also been taking the lead in creating self-help and tech based solutions to reach more entrepreneurs more affordably. Although it usually sounds insincere when businesses talk about social impact, especially lawyers, Aarya Legal believe that affordable and friendly lawyers on your side can make a big difference to whether you become sustainable.\u00a0 They do work at every level &#8211; from working with VC\u2019s to servicing township micro-enterprises through enterprise development programmes. This ensures that they can see and measure the impact of the interventions in supporting small businesses. Just because law is thought of as elitist doesn\u2019t mean it is \u2013 it\u2019s an essential service for businesses to grow and succeed.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-2724\" src=\"https:\/\/rocketpad.co.za\/matoyana\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/In-The-Spotlight-with-Aarya-Legal-Final-2-245x300.png\" alt=\"In The Spotlight with Aarya Legal\" width=\"245\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/rocketpad.co.za\/matoyana\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/In-The-Spotlight-with-Aarya-Legal-Final-2-245x300.png 245w, https:\/\/rocketpad.co.za\/matoyana\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/In-The-Spotlight-with-Aarya-Legal-Final-2-768x942.png 768w, https:\/\/rocketpad.co.za\/matoyana\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/In-The-Spotlight-with-Aarya-Legal-Final-2.png 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 245px) 100vw, 245px\" \/>When asked how she keeps creative and sane during the difficult Covid-19 phase, Maushami says:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnyone who does cerebral work has to do something with their hands to balance things out. I embroider when I have time.\u00a0 I constantly listen to music which keeps me focused or provides breaks for fun and spontaneity (aka dancing around the workspace).\u00a0 The most import \u201ctip\u201d and hardest to do at times like this is to have a purpose. When you\u2019re \u201con purpose\u201d you tend not to get influenced by externalities because you\u2019re internally driven.\u00a0 Figuring that purpose out is hard but life becomes much easier once you have.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Many thanks for your time Maushami!<\/p>\n<p>Email Aarya Legal at <a href=\"mailto:admin@aaryalegal.com\">admin@aaryalegal.com<\/a> for a FREE legal assessment.<\/p>\n<p>Or see more on: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aaryalegal.com\">www.aaryalegal.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As part of our Matoyana Media \u201cIn the Spotlight\u201d Series we\u2019re showcasing African businesses who have social transformation at the heart of their businesses.
