Dear Anonymous,
If you are serious in starting a business, then the best way forward is to consult a lawyer with all your facts (which probably you will not be able to reveal here for obvious reasons) and take appropriate legal opinion supported by legal provisions, and then move ahead.
The views that you will get her would only be overall views and not addressing your real concerns in a very specific manner. Therefore, you have to necessarily approach a lawyer, if you are really serious.
