Letter of Intent

Texas

Asked on Oct 6, 2022

Can a buyer back out of a purchase agreement?

I am trying to sell my company and the buyer has gone silent. We have top terms agreed to and a LOI signed, but we have not put a purchase agreement in place yet. Can they legally back out if we have a LOI signed?

Michael S.

Answered Oct 18, 2022

With the caveat that I am a Pennsylvania and not Texas attorney, most LOI's are non-binding, unless the LOI itself provides otherwise. A lawyer would need to review the LOI to determine whether the deal can be enforced. Mostly likely, however, it cannot be enforced.

Certificate of Good Standing

Ohio

Asked on Aug 15, 2024

Can you explain what a Certificate of Good Standing is and why it is important for a business?

I recently started a small business and I have heard about this document called a Certificate of Good Standing. I am not entirely sure what it is and why it is important, so I would like some clarification. From my understanding, it is a document issued by the state where my business is registered, but I am unsure of its purpose and how it affects my business. I want to make sure I am in compliance with all necessary requirements and understand the implications of obtaining or not obtaining this certificate.

Melissa G.

Answered Sep 10, 2024

A certificate of good standing shows that your business has complied with all of the applicable laws and regulations for the state in which the business operates (e.g., all required reports have been filed like the annual report; the business has paid all taxes and fees; the business has met any necessary licensing and regulatory requirements, etc.). and that the business is legally authorized to operate in a state. It is important to have so that the business can show potential partners, investors, or lenders that your business has taken the necessary steps to ensure its legal status in the state.

Articles of Incorporation

New York

Asked on Mar 30, 2021

Does an LLC need articles of incorporation?

I am considering forming an NY LLC and am doing a bit of research.

Ramsey T.

Answered Mar 30, 2021

LLCs are not technically "companies" or "corporations" and therefore they are not formed by filing Articles of Incorporation. Corporations are formed when you file Articles of Incorporation. LLS are formed by an "Organizer" who files a Form of Organization or Articles of Organization with a state. LLCs actually are "hybrids" with characteristic of companies in some ways and of partnerships in other ways.

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.

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.
