Corporate Bylaws

California

Asked on Dec 15, 2024

Can a corporation amend its bylaws without a shareholder vote?

I am a shareholder in a small corporation and recently, the board of directors proposed several amendments to the company's bylaws, including changes to the voting rights and director appointment process. However, there was no mention of a shareholder vote in the proposed amendments, and I am concerned that the board may be trying to bypass our input and make unilateral decisions. I would like to know if it is legally permissible for a corporation to amend its bylaws without a shareholder vote and what my rights as a shareholder are in this situation.

Dolan W.

Answered Dec 31, 2024

Hello! My name is Dolan and I am sorry to hear about this situation. So this depends on a few things: 1. The bylaws generally are what govern. If the bylaws authorize this, then it's legal for the corporation's board members to do so. 2. This also depends on the type of shareholders. "Class A" shareholders typically are able to make decisions to amend the bylaws without lower (Class B or lower) shareholders having a say. For instance, Meta can change its bylaws without the consent of common shareholders. 3. Nevertheless, as a shareholder, you have the right to inspect the corporation's governing documents, financial records, and meeting minutes to understand the board's authority and intentions. You can request access to these documents under state law. 4. If the board is acting outside its authority or attempting to make changes that require shareholder approval, you may be able to challenge the amendments. This could involve raising objections at a shareholder meeting, contacting other shareholders to address the issue collectively, or pursuing legal action if necessary. We're happy to help any way we can!

Terms of Service

Washington

Asked on Dec 13, 2023

Do beta testers need a special terms of service?

I am currently developing a software product and I am looking to have beta testers test out the product. I want to ensure that I have all the necessary legal documents and agreements in place before I allow any beta testers to access the product. I am wondering if beta testers need a special terms of service that is different from the standard terms of service agreement that would be given to customers when they purchase the product.

Merry K.

Answered Jan 16, 2024

In both instances, you should incorporate some type of non-disclosure agreement. For beta testers, you need to address whether you are paying the beta testers in any way, shape, or form, such as a discount for the final software.

Noncompete Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jul 12, 2023

Noncompete agreement and business partners?

I am a business owner who has recently acquired a new partner. We are in the process of drafting a Noncompete Agreement to ensure that neither of us will compete against each other in the same market. We are looking for advice on what should be included in the agreement and how it should be enforced.

Daniel D.

Answered Aug 4, 2023

The one thing to make sure with noncompete agreements is that it is reasonable in terms of duration and the area you cannot compete in. Courts use a reasonableness test to determine whether a noncompete agreement is valid. If provisions are deemed to be unreasonable and fail the test, they could be altered or struck out of the agreement.

Teaming Agreement

New York

Asked on Jun 26, 2024

Can you explain the key provisions that should be included in a Teaming Agreement for a joint venture in the construction industry?

I am currently in discussions with another construction company to form a joint venture for a large infrastructure project. We have decided to enter into a Teaming Agreement to outline the terms and conditions of our collaboration. However, I am unsure about the key provisions that should be included in this agreement to ensure a fair and mutually beneficial partnership. I want to make sure that the agreement covers important aspects such as the scope of work, responsibilities, intellectual property rights, dispute resolution, and termination clauses. Can you please explain the essential provisions that should be included in a Teaming Agreement for a joint venture in the construction industry?

Hello! This is Attorney Damien Bosco. My law office is in Forest Hills, Queens County, New York City. My practice covers the New York City metropolitan area and Long Island. I also handle matters throughout New York State. A Teaming Agreement for a joint venture in the construction industry should be comprehensive and detailed to ensure clarity and prevent disputes. Some key provisions that should be included are: 1. Purpose and Scope of the Agreement 2. Roles and Responsibilities 3. Management and Decision-Making 4. Financial Contributions and Profit Sharing 5. Intellectual Property Rights 6. Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure 7. Compliance with Laws and Regulations 8. Dispute Resolution 9. Termination and Exit Strategy 10. Insurance and Liability 11.

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.
