Client Love

"Go to Sam for ALL your online biz legal needs. Seriously. Sam is the perfect combo of savvy legal info and boss babe. I came to her with TONS of legal questions about how to run my business online and she patiently and thoroughly answered all my questions and gave me peace of mind in my online business. She hooked me up with an Affiliate Agreement template and that Agreement has so far helped me to bring in over 50% of my business revenue. She also sent along a clear, concise and very helpful video explaining EXACTLY what my new contracts mean so I can intelligently answer questions for my clients. Sam really, really cares about her clients and the people she works with and she goes above and beyond to provide an efficient, clear and all around delightful experience. Sam will continue to be my go-to gal for all my legal mentorship needs." - Mel Judson, meljudson.com

"The temples are an easy way to make my business legal and provide the peace of mind I needed. Sam also responds real quick to any question you have about the temples. She also keeps up with the latest legal developments such as the GDPR. I'm very please with Sam and her products. Thank you for making my life easier." - Kalyani Fad, kalyanifad.com

"Working with Sam was a breeze. She helped us determine our legal needs to protect our websites, and walked us through each step of the way using the templates - not that we needed much help, the templates and videos were so simple to follow! Being small business owners, in our very first year of business, it was a relief to find an affordable and trustworthy option for our website terms and conditions. Sam's mix of passion for wellness and entrepreneurship, combined with her legal background makes her a pleasure to work with, and a great resource as we continue to grow our brand!" - Kate, Jess & Jen of The Good Fest, thegoodfest.com

"As a busy entrepreneur and wellness coach, I balance what feels like a million moving pieces day to day. I juggle teaching, training clients in person, coaching clients online, creating new programs, and of course managing all the behind the scenes of my online business... marketing, accounting, operations, and more. I was burnout in my business because I was trying to do all aspects of it myself. I love coaching and creating, but I knew I needed to free up my time by asking for help with the stuff that constantly had me banging my head against the wall. This included the legal aspects of my business that I knew nothing about but knew were important: client contracts, terms of use for my fitness programs, privacy policies, etc. As a former-attorney turned entrepreneur/health coach, Sam was the ideal person to turn to because she understands the wellness industry but also has the legal background I lacked. Sam genuinely wants you to succeed in your business and has an arsenal of resources and DIY legal templates to help you do just that. I recommend any business owner who's just starting out, feels overwhelmed, or simply needs to outsource instead of wear yet another business hat work with Sam. I cannot recommend her enough!" - achievewithathena.com

"Sam and I "virtually" met on one of my free strategy calls. And no sooner did I find myself inviting her to speak at my Elite Retreat: a business retreat for female go getters. Sam was incredible! She has such a calm way of speaking about law... after all this stuff can be confusing and scary. All the women felt clarity as well as empowered versus scared and stuck. So of course I had to hire her for her legal templates - duh, no brainer! I tend to find people like myself, old school customer service people who truly care about their clients. Sam is most certainly one of those people. Not only will she square your legal business booty, she will be with you every step of the way. She's smart, funny, and accessible... doesn't get much better than that! I highly recommend 1) you take your business seriously and give it the legal protection it deserves and 2) speak with Sam and let her guide you with everything you need to do business with an empowered confidence that will have you legal and crushing goals - win win!" - Maryalice Goldsmith, maryalicegoldsmith.com

Sam is the go-to source when it comes to simple, accessible and affordable legal solutions for entrepreneurs. Transitioning my business to the online space left me with more than a few legal gaps to fill, which was extremely stressful! As an entrepreneur, I wanted to focus on my business and clients and not worry about the legal details. In a short-time frame Sam set me up with some templates and disclaimers for my online services. Her videos walked me through exactly how to use them, and she's always available to answer questions so that the process is really simple. Thanks, Sam, for providing such a necessary service to entrepreneurs so that we can stay legally legit. - Justine Cappel, twentytoesfitness.com

"I was worried about not having my site and the programs I offer being legal. I wanted to make sure I had all my ducks in a row, and was protecting myself and my business and I really wasn't sure how to even begin doing that. Thank God I found Sam!" - Rachel Barber of Love My Middle LLC, lovemymiddle.com

My friend and fellow coach Cameron Simcik recommended Sam to me and I am so grateful she did! After my free 20-minute Legal Checkup session with Sam I felt totally confident in working with her and new exactly what my next steps were. I purchased the Total Website Solution Bundle; knowing that I'm legally covered gives me peace and assurance so that I can focus on what I'm best at—coaching! Not only are her templates easy to use but they also come with helpful, step-by-step video tutorials. Sam's templates are top-quality and she herself is an absolute pleasure to work with. - Briana Menendez, urbanwellness-sf.com

"Sam's template for copywriters makes me look like a damn professional. I work with tech people who value their intellectual property and business plans above all else, so I know providing them legal protection upfront is a huge value add." - Katherine Karaus of KK Writes

"Sam was so easy to talk with and easy to get a hold of. Her templates were intuitively easy to use. I opened to windows and watched the videos as I customized my documents relevant to me and my business. Having her personal support up front was the game changer for me as I contacted other people that offered the same product but couldn't get a hold of easily. Sam feels like a good friend and offers you support in a powerful yet feminine way. She is there to help you and is not full of her ego or in any way there to rip you off. I have a friend and confidant for life!" - Paula Sockolich of Sacred Lotus Healing

Before I found Sam, I didn’t have any contracts for my group coaching program and needed something ASAP. After I purchased my first template from Sam I had a few questions. I sent her an email and she replied in detail while she was traveling abroad, I felt so taken care of 🤗. Since then I’ve needed a few more contracts and Sam always makes the process so easy and helps me decide which would be best for me. I highly recommend working with Sam! - Caty Kidd, catykidd.com

I came to Sam to help me take the guesswork out of protecting my website. Sam's legal templates helped make my life so much easier due to the quality, thoroughness and ease of the fill-in-the-blank feature. It helped me to understand what I needed for my website and the proper information to include.  Starting off with a free Legal Checkup with Sam put my mind at ease for what I would be getting into for purchasing the templates. Sam knew exactly what I needed to protect my website! -  Jessica Rinzuello, Heartfelt Health Coaching LLC

"When starting my lifestyle blog, I knew I wanted to protect myself legally from the start even though I had a very small following. Working with Sam made the process straightforward and less stressful for me. She was able to understand the current needs of my blog, as well as provide insight towards my potential future needs as my blog grows. The how-to videos made implementing her templates extremely easy and I knew she was there if I had any questions. I'm grateful to have found Sam to give me peace of mind as I got my blog off the ground!" - Alexina Gosh, ohmygoshes.com

"The information Sam provides to business owners is invaluable! I had the pleasure of meeting Sam and listening to her speak at a retreat in 2017. She opened my eyes to so many legal pieces that was missing in my business. I purchased her legal templates and was so impressed how easy it was to plug in my information and be done. I now have a sold client contract, disclaimer and terms of use for my website! Investing in my business to have the legal pieces in place, is one of the best decisions I have made!" - Kris of Strength by Kris, LLC, strengthbykris.com

“When I first started building my nutrition consulting practice 5 years ago, I honestly didn’t know the first thing about setting up my business online, let alone what steps I needed to take to ensure what I was offering had all of the legal boxes checked. To be extra honest…that was the part that I put off the longest because it just seemed too overwhelming to deal with, and quite frankly - over my head! Then I saw Sam post about her DIY legal templates and I immediately went to her website and booked a free 20-minute Legal Checkup call with her. Eyes opened, questions answered, concerns extinguished, templates purchased, BOOM! Sam's legal templates gave me the piece of mind I needed. As I sat there after everything was finally in place on my site, I actually chuckled to myself — why had I left it so long?! The DIY legal templates were just so convenient, and while there’s no question it’s an upfront business expense - it was worth every penny! - Krista Goncalves, Registered Nutritionist, Wellness Business Clarity Coach & Copywriter at Making Lemonade with Krista Goncalves

"I had lagged for a few months on making my own disclaimer and privacy policy, and once I started working with Sam, I got everything filled out and posted within 2 days. Then I could move on to what really needed my attention, like marketing and my social media platform." - Jenny Byrne of Contigo Kitchen, contigokitchen.com

I connected with Sam’s business through Instagram and scheduled a free 20-minute Legal Checkup as soon as I could. I knew I needed help navigating the next steps in becoming an LLC and making sure my clients and myself were protected - and Sam was eager to listen and provide encouragement to meet me where I was. I scheduled a Bizstorming session and was amazed how clear Sam outlined the next steps to establish my business and become legally protected. After our call I felt equipped and empowered to tackle the logistical sides of my biz I had been avoiding. Working with Sam helped me overcome the obstacles and fears I’d been facing. As a new business with a small income, I was hesitant to make the investment for a BizStorming session, BUT I am 110% grateful for Sam’s insight and guidance." - Karly Prichard, karlyprichard.com

"If you’re in the beginning stages of starting your own business, you’ve probably spent more time googling, crying, deliberating etc. than you had ever anticipated. I feel you- IT’S HARD WORK. Partnering with Sam has not only made me feel more confident in approaching the first steps of getting my health coaching practice up and running, she’s turned my anxiety into a passion for what I’m creating. For me personally, investing my time with a professional who is sharing business advice is a sacred process. I want immediate value, information broken down in a way that’s totally comprehensible and someone who is authentic… someone I can see myself talking shop with over a glass of wine. Sam goes above and beyond in each of these areas. She is a wealth of knowledge and her legal background adds a dimension to her business coaching that made me feel completely secure. If you’re looking for guidance ranging from the best resources to create your newsletter, to how you properly register a business name and bank account, Sam is the person to work with. She genuinely wants to see your business grow and will arm you with all of the tools & support for ultimate success. I could not recommend her more highly." - Katelyn P.

"Sam Vander Wielen's business and legal templates are an awesome resource for coaches and other entrepreneurs. Sam has done an incredible job making these resources accessible - from both an ease and a cost perspective. Her legal expertise, entrepreneurial skills, and desire to empower other business owners sets her apart in this work! Not only are the templates simple to use and customize, but each template comes with an incredibly helpful tutorial video! As an attorney turned health coach, I am so grateful for these resources. As business owners, we spend so much time and energy building our businesses. I'm grateful to Sam for making it easy to protect all of that hard work!" - Simi Botic, simibotic.com

"I wanted my clients to understand exactly what I provide and what I do not provide. I was so worried that I would get into legal trouble for not healing someone, when my job as a counselor is give them the tools to do the work themselves. The templates are so easy to use! Sam puts the video tutorials in a simple, easy to digest format. I can now explain the contracts to future clients so they can absorb the information." - Mara Davanzati of Nourish Sankalpa, nourishsankalpa.com

"I found Sam at our business retreat where she was giving a lecture about making sure we were legal, I thought it was a perfect solution to my problem. I had worried so much about having a privacy policy, disclaimer, terms of use, and other legal documents before I found Sam. I love having peace of mind having legal documents on my website and client service agreements to have clients sign. Sam is a sweetheart always ready to help you if you need it as she really cares. Great customer service and products." - Crystal Pecora, crystalpecora.com

"When I started my health coaching business I didn't know the difference between an LLC and DBA. I had no idea what I needed to do to protect myself legally. I wasn't sure what legal forms I needed or how to fill them out. I listened to a podcast Carmen Hunter did with Sam and knew she was the person to help me. Sam's legal templates are so easy to use. The step by step videos make filling them out painless. Thanks to Sam I am starting my business off right!" - Debbie Waidl of In the Balance Health Coaching, LLC, inthebalance.coach

"The How-To Video Tutorials that go along with Sam's templates are SO helpful! Mostly because Sam clarifies everything so you have confidence in what you're putting out into the world." - Shila Scarlet Griffith of SG23 Design, LLC, sg23design.com

"I was so freaked out by not having the right things in place for GDPR. Sam's privacy policy template helped so much! Sam helped me feel at ease that I was protected by the new GDPR rules and regulations. The template was so easy to use - literally took me 30 minutes to buy, download, and upload to my website. And knowing that I'm legally protected - that's huge. Especially when married to a guy in insurance - he's all about low risk :)" - Caitlin Ball, Caitlin Ball Health & Lifestyle Coaching

Sam is truly a gem! What Sam was able to do was not only provide answers on the nitty gritty legal aspects but she was also able to switch to the bigger picture of helping me with my biz. I find that many coaches can be very motivating but it’s hard to walk away with tasks and to-dos that are relevant to what I specifically need. I also feel confident in her answers about legal issues AND entrepreneurial issues as well. Not many can do both (in fact, I don’t know anyone who can do both). So please know that Sam will not only give you the info for your specific Qs, she’ll also take you back a step to look at the bigger picture of your business and where you want to go, which is incredibly invaluable! Working with Sam allowed me to gain clarity and insight with her savvy business practice tips for improving client workflow and communication because we all know that a bad workflow can turn your hourly rate into pennies -- and this is your immediate return on investing in a session with Sam. She'll take your inefficiencies and potential loopholes and straighten them out so you can get on a path to being more profitable with your business. And you'll also want to be her friend because she's so awesome. Thank you, Sam, for everything! - Celia Ragonese, antrimandsprucephotography.com

"I needed clarification on starting my new business. Sam is so relatable and easy to talk to, I knew she would be able to help steer me in the right direction! Sam gave me clarity on my next action steps and helped calm my anxieties about my new business. Sam makes everything SO easy and accessible! Sam is so down to earth and she really gets the small business and coaching world." - Nina Boyce of Nourished With Nina

I met Sam when she was one of the speakers at the Elite Retreat by Maryalice Goldsmith. When Sam finished giving her talk, I wrote her a note, "I want to hire you", walked to her, and handed it over. By the following week, we scheduled our first BizStorming session, and then I purchased her DIY legal templates. Now I am "Legally Legit", thanks to Sam. I had no idea that there was a huge hole in my business, and Sam helped me "fill it up". Thank you so much Sam! - Fabi

"Starting a health coaching business can be overwhelming and confusing, especially when it comes to the legal side of things. I reached out to Sam after consulting with several other attorneys, and when I learned she was a former attorney AND a health coach, I had full confidence Sam understood my exact legal needs! Sam's DIY client agreement and step-by-step video guidance turned my legal headaches and confusion into simple tasks. Finally! The buying process was extremely easy, and I received instant access to my purchased template. She happily answered all questions I had and made the entire DIY process actually enjoyable -- something I never thought I'd say! I can't recommend Sam enough. She truly wants you to succeed in your business, and I felt that the moment I reached out. Having someone on my side who fully understands both worlds - law and health coaching - is so invaluable." Cameron Simcik, cameronsimcik.com

"As a family health coach helping parents and children learn about how foods can nurture and develop their overall wellbeing, I wanted to be able to focus on building my business. However, I was worried about the legal safety & protection of my media. After hearing about Sam Vander Wielen on several sites, I decided to check her out. I am so glad that I did! I feel so much more at ease with my website, content and conditions now - thank you!" - Kristen, www.411healthandwellness.com

When the GDPR laws came out, I felt overwhelmed with what to do and how to get my business in compliance with the new laws. I called Sam last minute and she saved me. She told me exactly what I needed, told me exactly where to find it, and walked me through exactly what I needed to send to my email list to be in compliance. This was a HUGE blessing. I purchased Sam's Total Website Solution bundle... all things I thought I could skate by without. However, in just putting them up on my website I instantly felt more protected, more successful, and totally set up as a legit business owner. I think for so many of us we see the legal side as "boring" or "confusing" or "eh, I probably don't REALLY need that." But what I didn't realize in working with Sam is that it wasn't boring at all. In fact, it was incredibly empowering. It made me feel like the CEO of my business. It truly made me feel "legally legit" which in turn, empowered me as a coach. I will ALWAYS recommend the business owners in my life to Sam. She's the BOMB. Sam, truly. You're incredible. You're fun to talk to, you're supportive, informative, and you truly have a gift of empowering others and helping them to their next level. Thank you! - Paige Schmidt, paigeschmidt.com

"Working with Sam gave me peace of mind. I felt confident in knowing what I did and didn't need. Ultimately, I purchased the website bundle and the 1-1 client contract. Immediately after watching the tutorial video, I was certain that I made a wise purchase." - Chelsea G. of Positively Well, LLC, iampositivelywell.com

Our BizStorming session with Sam was so helpful — but what was even better was her follow up and follow through. There was a mystery we uncovered while on our 90-minute BizStorming session and she made sure that we got our answer as soon as possible. In addition, she has followed up numerous times to make sure that the process was going well with moving our LLC to a different state. Sam is patient, kind, knowledgeable and resourceful. We recommend her so highly! - Rachel & Kyle Wright, www.wrightwellnesscenter.com

Before meeting and working with Sam, I was so unsure of what I needed legally in my business in order to be totally legally legit. I knew things were missing, but I wasn't sure what was the priority or even where to find what I needed for my unique business. After working with Sam, I feel so confident that I have what I need on my website and in my business that I feel even more confident putting myself out there to attract new clients and opportunities. That confidence has turned into more paying clients and consistency in my business. For the first time in a long time, I don't feel like I'm hiding. I'm now sharing my business with my ideal clients confidently and with the comfort that it's being conducted legally! If you feel less than confident in your business or putting yourself out there, you might not think that getting yourself legally set up will build that confidence, but it truly was a game changer for me more than any mindset action I've ever done. - Cristina, www.nourishmbml.com

"I came to Sam because I wanted to offer on-line patient education handouts for pelvic health practitioners to use in the clinic in a PDF format. I also wanted to launch my course 'Rehabilitation for the Breast Cancer Patient' on-line. I wanted to make sure my business was protected and that people understood the terms of use so that my intellectual property is protected. These templates were so easy to fill out! The fact that she pairs them with videos gave my the assurance that I was interpreting the content to fill in accurately. I also REALLY appreciate that if I need to modify them in the future or develop a new website I have these templates in my back pocket." - Susannah of Your Core PT, LLC, yourcorept.com

I had no idea how to get my business started before taking Fearlessly Legal™.  Sam created a go-to hub of knowledge that answered every question I had...and some I didn't know I should. The info on starting an LLC was invaluable! Fearlessly Legal™ gave me the knowledge and confidence I needed to register my LLC and launch my business! Without Sam I'm not sure if I would have gotten started yet, but now I'm seeing clients and my business is expanding. Fearlessly Legal™ is so worth it! Whether you already have a business or you're just starting, this course has the answer to all your questions." - Mandy

Starting a new business can be difficult so when you find someone who offers great value for their services it is so appreciated.  Sam does just that.  I purchased both her DIY Total Website Bundle and her DIY Client Agreement.  I received both purchases right away and was able to easily follow along. Sam gives you templates to use, but she also sends you videos that explain the process and the choices you need to make.  Sam makes it easy to generate the documents you need for your particular business.  If I had to hire an attorney for this, it would have cost me thousands of dollars and would have taken much longer.  I was also impressed that when I sent her a couple of questions I got a timely and thorough response.  I especially like that she understand the health coaching business and knows what the challenges are.  That gives me a comfort level that I have protected myself legally and don’t have to worry as much.  Sam made this an easy process and was a joy to work with!  In the future, when I have a new legal need I will go to Sam first. - Julie Kenney, Chameleon Wellness
