I'm planning to start a freelance business, but I have no idea what legal steps I need to take. Do I need to register my business, or can I just start working? Should I get a contract for every client, and how do I make one?

I also wonder about taxes. Do freelancers have to pay taxes differently? Are there any licenses or permits I should know about? I don't want to run into legal trouble later, so I want to do things the right way from the start.

What legal steps should I take when starting a freelance business?
