David,
Your general proposition that we need to look into a business’s reputation is good. However, I think you’re confusing two concepts. When you file a business certificate with a local office, such as a county clerk’s office, you’re only confirming that the business has a real person behind it. the way to protect against personal liability is to form a corporation. If all you’ve filed is a business certificate linking your given name to your business name, you can be sued. The case caption would be something like this: XYZ v. Joe Soap d/b/a Bubbles Enterprises “D/b/a” stands for “doing business as.”

Sarah, When starting my Dog rehabilitation centre years ago. The first thing I was told was to register my business name. Why? Because if you have no registered name, lawyers will just do a search and if your name comes up, whether it is you or not, they can file a suit against you. Then you have to prove it was not you that ripped off a client. It is just a way to cover your rear end from people. I know operating a business with no license is in vogue these days, however, depending on the person wanting to hire someone, having a business name registered adds more credibility to the person operating the business. No name and anyone can claim to be representing or even being you, treat the client unfairly and you could be on the hoof for legal costs.

Hi Richard,
You’re most welcome. My website is currently still under construction as I’ve been 100% focused on clients. I do have a body of work that you’re welcome to look at however. I am not registered as a business, yet, but plan to be within the next few months, hopefully by the end of the year.
For work I’ve done please check out:
My prices are very reasonable and flexible. I’ve never worked with a state agency as DOR of California is not currently contracting, but I look forward to the opportunity.
Hope this is helpful to you and your client, if you have more questions, or would like more info on anything, please do reach out.
Thanks, Sarah

Thank you for the offer. Do you have a web site that explains your services and pricing? This is through a State agency and I am just looking for resources to pass along. Do you have a business? Thanks,
Richard "He that cannot forgive others breaks the bridge over which he must pass himself,” and we forget that only grace can break the cycle of ancient hatreds among peoples. (It is notable that while I have regretted not granting grace to others, I’ve never once regretted extending it.)" - Edward Herbert
