Corporate Bylaws
Tennessee

Our LLC has an operating agreement. We want to convert to a corporation. Will I be able to use the same template?
Jane C.
Corporations have by-laws.
Business
Nondisclosure Agreement
California
Are non disclosure agreements enforceable?
I keep getting asked to sign NDAs and I'm not sure how enforceable they are?
Michael M.
The short answer is yes, they are enforceable. The longer answer is the cost involved, the actual damages, and if they can be quantified. In most cases these agreements simply act as a disincentive to reveal the information protected.

Liquor License
New York
Can a liquor license be transferred to a new owner when purchasing an existing business?
I am considering purchasing an existing restaurant that currently holds a liquor license, but I am unsure if the liquor license can be transferred to me as the new owner. I have done some research and found conflicting information, with some sources stating that liquor licenses are non-transferable and others suggesting that the transfer is possible under certain conditions. I would like to understand the legal requirements and process for transferring a liquor license to a new owner in order to make an informed decision about purchasing the business.
Damien B.
Hello. This is Damien Bosoc, Esq. I have a law office in Long Island City across from Manhattan. In New York, liquor licenses are non-transferable, meaning they are issued specifically to the current owner and premises and cannot be directly transferred to a new owner. However, there is a process that allows prospective buyers to obtain a new liquor license for the business they are purchasing. While liquor licenses in New York are not directly transferable, there is an established process for new owners to obtain a license when purchasing an existing licensed business. Following the NYSLA's requirements carefully is crucial to ensure a smooth transition and uninterrupted business operations. Feel free to reach out if you would like a consultation.

Buy And Sell Agreement
California
Can you please explain the key components of a Buy Sell Agreement and how it can protect my interests as a business owner?
I am a small business owner and I am currently in the process of forming a partnership with another individual to expand our operations. We have been advised to create a Buy Sell Agreement to outline the terms and conditions under which one of us can buy out the other's share in the event of certain triggering events such as death, disability, or retirement. I am not familiar with the specifics of a Buy Sell Agreement and would like to understand its key components, such as the valuation method, funding mechanisms, and how it can protect my interests as a business owner.
Dolan W.
Hello! My name is Dolan and thanks so much for coming to contractscounsel.com! A Buy-Sell Agreement is your partnership’s safety net. It sets up the rules for what happens if one of you leaves the business whether it’s due to death, disability, retirement, or just wanting out. It’s a way to avoid messy situations and keep things smooth if life throws a curveball. It's basically a set of instructions for you and your partner. One of the main things it covers is how to value the business. You don’t want to argue later about what it’s worth, so the agreement spells out how you’ll figure that out like using a formula, getting an appraisal, or updating the value regularly. It’s all about keeping things fair. In most cases, it's best just to make your best guess or hire an accountant to do it for you. Then there’s the funding part. If one of you leaves, the other needs a way to buy their share. This could mean using life or disability insurance, setting money aside, or agreeing to a payment plan. Life insurance is a popular choice because it ensures there’s cash on hand without straining the business. It also protects you by making sure shares can’t just be sold to some random outsider. Plus, it lays out exactly how the buyout process works so there’s no room for surprises or drama. It’s all about clarity and avoiding conflicts. In short, it’s a must-have if you’re starting a partnership. It keeps you both protected, helps avoid headaches. Let us know and we can draft one for you. Thanks again!
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
