Corporate Legal Questions and Answers
Corporate
S Corp
Texas
Can an S corp be digital?
I am an entrepreneur who is exploring different business entities to use for my new venture. I have heard that an S corp can be a beneficial option, but I am unsure if a digital S corp is possible. I have been researching online, but I am not sure what the legal requirements and implications would be for creating a digital S corp.
Michael R.
There is no such thing as a digital S corporation. An S corporation is simply a corporation which makes an election to be taxed as a partnership.
Corporate
Business Partnership Agreement
Arizona
What to include in a business partnership agreement?
I want to learn what terms are typical in a partnership agreement. Background - I am wanting to create a partnership with an SEO agency (I provide digital ads/SEM services). I want to make sure we have the right terms around profit sharing and making sure they don't poach my clients without me getting a cut of the revenue. Any help is appreciated.
Michael S.
I recommend hiring an experienced corporate attorney to help negotiate and draft the agreement. You can't be given a list of 3 or 5 pointers and then expect to negotiate the agreement yourself. There are too many pitfalls. And you wouldn't expect someone to come to you and ask you how they can do for themselves what you do, right? It's more complicated than that, and there's a reason you're a professional.
Corporate
Business Purchase Agreement
North Carolina
Does a business purchase agreement need notarization?
I am in the process of purchasing a business and I have been presented with a business purchase agreement. I want to make sure that I am making the right decision and that all documents are properly documented. I understand that some legal documents may require notarization and I wanted to confirm if a business purchase agreement requires notarization.
N'kia N.
North Carolina does not require business purchase agreements to be notarized. However, some documents related to the business purchase deal might require notarization. For example, any deeds needed for the deal will likely have to be notarized. Some business purchase deals are pretty simple, while others can be rather complex. In many situations, it is ideal for each party to have at least one attorney representing them in the negotiations and preparing the necessary documents. If you have questions or concerns about a business purchase agreement, you might consider consulting with a knowledgeable corporate attorney. Good luck!
Corporate
LLC
Connecticut
LLC and corporate restructuring?
I am a business owner that is looking to restructure my LLC and corporate structure to better suit the needs of my business. I am looking to expand my business and need to know the best way to restructure my LLC and corporate entities to manage growth and protect my assets. I am looking for advice on the best way to do this and any potential legal considerations I should be aware of.
Thomas L.
You need to categorize each asset and revenue source, and your personal tax situation, and amend or create entities as needed.
Corporate
Shareholders Agreement
Kansas
Shareholders agreement and indemnification?
I am a founder of a startup business and I recently entered into a Shareholders Agreement with my business partners. I am looking to understand how the agreement handles indemnification for the shareholders. I am seeking clarity on the extent of liability that I may be held responsible for as a shareholder.
Ben P.
The answer to your question will largely depend on the specific terms of the Shareholders Agreement, and whether the claims, and potential liability, come from a third party, the corporation itself, or your fellow shareholders. It might also depend on any other role(s) you have with the corporation as a director, officer, employee, and/or agent. A Kansas statute (K.S.A. 17-6305) provides specific parameters regarding a corporation's basic indemnity obligations for its directors, officers, employees, or agents. However, a shareholders agreement, the articles of incorporation, and/or bylaws might provide for more details regarding an indemnification review and approval process, the advancement of fees, or other requirements or protections. Related to indemnification by the corporation itself, the existence and extent of any insurance coverage for directors and officers liability (a D&O policy) could be a vital consideration in certain situations. You should consult with an experienced attorney regarding the specific terms of your Shareholders Agreement, any other relevant corporate documents, and the particular concerns you might have to make sure you fully understand the extent of any protection provided, and whether there are any uncertain areas or issues that need to be addressed.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
