My practice involves counseling businesses and individuals on a variety of contracts, such as business formation, technology/IP, real estate, leases, and even domestic relations agreements. Much of my practice is dedicated to litigation. As such, I approach contract and transactional work from a litigation perspective by advising clients of the risks involved in failing to develop proper contracts. It takes more than knowledge of the law to be a good lawyer. A good lawyer is honest and forthcoming with clients and has a counseling ethos. And, to me, a good lawyer stands in the shoes of the client when considering how to best serve that client. Whether my client is a business or an individual, I am passionate about helping my clients understand their rights, responsibilities, risks, and possibilities.

S Corp

California

Asked on Jun 19, 2023

S corp and corporate restructuring?

I am looking to restructure my business, which is incorporated as an S corp. I am looking for advice on how to best restructure the business to ensure that all legal requirements are met and that the new structure is advantageous for the business. I am considering various options such as merging with another business, changing the ownership structure, or forming a new entity. I am seeking legal advice on the best approach and the potential implications of each option.

Chris J.

Answered Jul 21, 2023

Hi: Generally speaking, you have several options (many of which you've identified). 1. You can revoke S-Corp status (if you have a corporation and want C-Corp status). However, revocation won't be effective until the 2024 tax year. With that said, sometimes people inadvertently revoke S-Corp status by taking certain actions (which we can discuss). 2. You can create a new entity and structure it in the way you want (corporation, LLC, partnership, etc.). Then, you can wind down the S-Corp. 3. You can merge your existing S-Corp into an entity and have that entity survive and your S-Corp "merge out" and disappear. The approach that makes the most sense depends upon your business, the assets held by your S-Corp, and your objectives. Best regards, Chris Jackson

Due Diligence Report

California

Asked on Aug 25, 2025

What is the purpose and importance of a Due Diligence Report?

As a small business owner, I am considering entering into a partnership with another company, but before proceeding, I want to understand the purpose and importance of a Due Diligence Report. I have heard that it is a crucial step in assessing the financial and legal risks associated with a potential business deal, and I want to ensure that I have all the necessary information and insights to make an informed decision.

Randy M.

Answered Sep 5, 2025

When you're thinking about entering into a business partnership, a Due Diligence Report isn’t just a formality. It’s your insurance policy. Think of it like hiring a private investigator to dig into every part of your potential partner’s business, especially the parts that might not show up until it's too late. Done right, due diligence covers four key areas: financial health, legal status, operational strength, and market reputation. Let’s Talk Money First Financial due diligence isn’t just about checking a few profit-and-loss statements. You want to understand how money really flows through the business. That means looking at cash flow over a few years, checking whether their customers actually pay on time, and digging into outstanding debts, including any personal guarantees the owners have signed. For example, they might look profitable on paper, but if their top clients delay payments or argue about invoices, cash flow could be a real problem. You also want to uncover liabilities that don’t show up on the balance sheet. Pending lawsuits, warranty obligations, or environmental cleanups can quietly become your problem once you're tied together. And taxes? Those are non-negotiable. Unpaid payroll or sales taxes can turn into personal liability in many states. That’s not something you want to inherit. Legal and Regulatory Risks This part is about making sure the business is actually in good standing and that nothing in their legal structure or contracts could come back to bite you. You’ll want a thorough review of any ongoing litigation, along with a close read of their major agreements. Some contracts might have clauses that restrict operations or create extra obligations you weren’t expecting. Employment agreements can be especially tricky. Non-compete clauses or change-of-control terms might trigger bonus payouts or resignations if ownership shifts. Licensing is another area to watch, especially in regulated industries. Operating without a valid license can shut a business down immediately. And if the company claims to own valuable intellectual property, a good due diligence process will verify those claims through proper trademark and patent records. Next, Take a Hard Look at Operations This is where you figure out whether the business can actually deliver what it promises. Who are the key players? Are they under contract? What happens if they leave? You also need to understand the supply chain. If the business relies heavily on a single supplier, that’s a serious vulnerability. Don’t forget the tech. Many businesses run on outdated systems that won’t integrate with yours or scale with growth. Fixing that after the deal is signed can get expensive quickly. Reputation Matters, Too The company might look solid internally, but how does the market see them? You’ll want to assess their competitive position and whether their revenue depends heavily on just one or two customers. If 60 percent of their income comes from one account, losing that relationship could collapse the whole operation. You should also review their online footprint, compliance history, and any bad press. If their name is tangled in negative headlines or public disputes, it could affect your brand just by association. What Do You Do with All This Information? Use it to shape your negotiations. If financials are shaky, you might want the owners to personally guarantee certain obligations or ask for monthly reporting. If litigation is pending, you can negotiate indemnification clauses that protect you if things go sideways. It also helps you choose the right deal structure. Maybe a joint venture makes more sense than a general partnership. Limiting liability could save you from taking on more risk than necessary. Can You Do This Alone? You can review basic documents yourself, but deeper analysis often needs professionals. A CPA can spot issues in financials and tax returns that might not be obvious at first glance. Employment attorneys can identify red flags in hiring practices or compensation agreements. If the business operates in a complex industry, bring in someone who knows that space. Tech companies especially should get a cybersecurity review. You don’t want to discover a data breach after you sign. What’s This All Going to Cost? Professional due diligence usually runs between $5,000 and $25,000, depending on how complex the business is. But more often than not, it pays for itself, either by uncovering issues that give you leverage or by helping you walk away from a bad deal before it’s too late. Expect the process to take four to eight weeks. You’ll usually get some early insights within the first two, but thorough analysis takes time. Building that into your timeline prevents rushed decisions and costly surprises.
