Corporate Legal Questions and Answers

Corporate

Form 1120-S

California

Asked on Oct 13, 2024

Can a corporation elect to be treated as an S corporation after filing Form 1120-S?

I am the owner of a small corporation that has been filing taxes using Form 1120-S for several years, and I recently learned about the potential tax benefits of electing S corporation status. I am interested in exploring this option and would like to know if it is possible to retroactively elect S corporation status for previous tax years, or if it can only be done prospectively.

Dolan W.

Answered Oct 25, 2024

Hello! Tha answer is yes. What you need to do is seek a late election using Form 2553. Your late S corp election must be filed within three years and 75 days after its proposed effective date. This means that you can do this retroactively. You can even start here with this video to figure out how - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xA81sVVtgp8 Best of luck!

LLC

Massachusetts

Asked on Aug 30, 2024

Can you explain the steps and legal requirements for forming a multi-member LLC?

I am currently part of a small group of individuals who are interested in starting a business together. After conducting some research, we believe that forming a multi-member LLC would be the most suitable structure for our venture. However, we are unsure about the specific steps and legal requirements involved in the formation process. We want to ensure that we are compliant with all the necessary regulations and properly protect ourselves and our business interests. Therefore, we are seeking guidance from a lawyer who can explain the process and provide us with the necessary information to successfully establish a multi-member LLC.

Richard G.

Answered Oct 11, 2024

A multi-member LLC needs an operating agreement to establish the following: 1. Organization - how operations and management of the company is allocated among the members. 2. Dispute resolution - address procedures for resolving disputes. 3. Overriding default rules - Massachusetts has a State LLC statute which members may wish to overrride by tailoring specific rules to their needs. 4. Specifying ownership - specify the percentage of ownership for each member. 5. Specifying profit distribution - specify how profits and losses will be distributed. 6. Specifying accounting - specify who is responsible for accounting and record-keeping, and what accounting method will be used. 7. Specifying meeting rules - state who can hold meetings, who will take minutes, and who sets the meeting agenda. 8. Specifying member roles - specify the roles of each member, including their voting rights. The above is simply a list of some of the items that must be addressed when forming an LLC, there are typically other considerations necessary to protect both the LLC and each member's interests in the LLC> Please contact an attorney practiced at drafting operating agreements and forming an LLC with the Secretary of State's office...this is not something to do by piecing together an agreement with an internet search.

Client Service Contract

Illinois

Asked on Oct 4, 2022

How does a contract protect your business?

I provide services to clients and I am considering getting a contract in place for my services. What are the benefits of having one? I haven't had any disputes with customers yet but I also want to make sure I am protected.

Michael S.

Answered Oct 18, 2022

With the caveat that I'm a Pennsylvania and not Illinois attorney, a contract establishes the rights and responsibilities of the parties. Whether you realize it, when you enter into a deal with a customer, you establish and oral contract. A written contract is much easier to enforce, and to prove the terms, because they are in writing. You are much less likely to run into disputes down the line. And for the most part, customers appreciate the certainty as well.

Stock purchase agreement and stockholder representation letters?

I am looking for advice on what these documents mean, how they are connected, and what rights and obligations they create for me as a potential buyer.

Acquisitions

Asset Purchase Agreement

Texas

Asked on Oct 4, 2022

How does an asset purchase agreement work with debt?

I am buying a business and want to use an asset purchase agreement based on what I've read, but I believe the company has debt. How does this work? Will I also be buying the debt? Any help is appreciated

John S.

Answered Oct 28, 2022

It depends. If you want to use an asset purchase agreement to purchase just the assets of the company instead of the entire company, then an asset purchase agreement is the way to go as you could avoid taking on the company's existing debts. However, if you plan to buy the business as a whole I would expect you will inherit the debts as well unless you draft a release from the former owners.

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.

I got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
