<human>:  I'm interested in starting a business - what are my legal obligations as a business owner?
<bot>: Your legal obligations as a business owner will depend on the type of business you are starting. Generally speaking, you must register your business with the relevant government agency, obtain permits and licenses, follow all applicable laws, pay applicable taxes and fees, report employee wages and taxes, and maintain accurate financial records. Additionally, you may need to obtain certain insurance coverage and comply with any local ordinances that may be applicable to your particular business.
