A co-worker and I recently started a home business. She had the idea for a bakery and asked me to be a part of it. I agreed, then designed, as well as purchased business cards and advertising magnets for my vehicle. I began working diligently to advertise and get our name out there via social media platforms. We both purchased ingredients to get started. Initially we would work together on projects and share the ingredients, but then she went away for work so I was filling the majority of orders. She also began refusing to split the workload saying we would always work out of her home because she had children and her time was more important than my own. This forced me to have to buy a whole new set of ingredients out of my own pocket. I drafted up a contract for a partnership to protect us as I could see things getting a little out of hand. When I gave it to her, she got upset, refused to sign it and said the business was hers and I have no right to it. What do I do? I have put a lot of time and money into this and I won't walk away and just let her have what I built.
