I represent a diverse mix in a vast array of specialties, including litigation, contracts, compliance, business and financial strategies, and emerging industries. Credit for this foundation of strength goes to those who taught me. Skilled professors and professionals fostered my powerful educational and professional background. Prior to law school, I earned dual Bachelor’s degrees in Business Administration & Accounting from Peru State College. I received a Master of Business Administration degree from Chadron State College. My ambitions did not stop there. While working full time as a Senior Accountant for the University of Missouri, Columbia, I achieved the lifelong goal of becoming a licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Mizzo provided excellent opportunities and amazing experiences. Managing over $50M in government and private research funding was a gift. As a high ranking professional in the Department of Research, I was given priceless insight into the greatest scientific, journalistic, medical, and legal minds in the world. My passion for successful growth did not, and has not stopped. I graduated summa cum laude (top 3%) with a Doctorate in Law, emphasizing in urban, land use and environmental/toxic tort law from the University of Missouri, Kansas City. This success lead to invaluable experiences of serving as Hon. Brian C. Wimes' judicial clerk for the U.S. District Court for the W. D. of Missouri, as a staff editor/writer for UMKC Law Review, and as a litigation and transactional attorney with Lathrop GPM (fka Lathrop & Gage). My professional and personal network is expansive, with established relationships throughout the U.S. and overseas. Although I engage in legal practice all over the country, I maintain law licenses in Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Federally, I hold licenses in the W.D. and E.D. of Missouri and the District of Nebraska. To offer extra value, efficiency, and options, I maintain a CPA license and am obtaining a real-estate brokerage license.

"I contacted Parachini Law after I had sent multiple unanswered information requests a third party. Mark not only send out a record request to the address specified, but also sent out additional requests at other possible business addresses to ensure the request was received. As a result, I finally received the information I was looking for. The firm was very professional to work with."

Corporate Legal Questions and Answers

Shareholders Agreement

Kansas

Asked on Jun 2, 2023

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.

Answered Jun 13, 2023

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.

Asset Purchase Agreement

Texas

Asked on Oct 4, 2022

How does an asset purchase agreement work with debt?

I am buying a business and want to use an asset purchase agreement based on what I've read, but I believe the company has debt. How does this work? Will I also be buying the debt? Any help is appreciated

John S.

Answered Oct 28, 2022

It depends. If you want to use an asset purchase agreement to purchase just the assets of the company instead of the entire company, then an asset purchase agreement is the way to go as you could avoid taking on the company's existing debts. However, if you plan to buy the business as a whole I would expect you will inherit the debts as well unless you draft a release from the former owners.

Asked on May 16, 2023

LLC and confidentiality clauses?

I recently started a small business and am looking to form a Limited Liability Company (LLC). I want to ensure that the confidentiality of the LLC and its members is protected, as it is a very competitive market. I am looking for advice on what clauses I should include in the LLC documents to ensure maximum confidentiality.

Thomas L.

Answered Jun 23, 2023

You should include a separate non-disclosure agreement for each person.

Startup

Founders' Agreement

Texas

Asked on Sep 12, 2021

Signing Founders Agreement as non-us resident?

I am from Ecuador and I am going to sign a Founder's Agreement with a person from Texas. I want to know in detail what are things I must take into consideration before signing this agreement.

Don G.

Answered Sep 17, 2021

I'm assuming the Founders Agreement is an agreement establishing owners, managers and ownership percentages. You should focus on: Terms regarding when your interest in the company vests; How your shares will be valued in the case you want to leave or are terminated; It should include some type of waiver of individual liability for acts taken on behalf of the company; and Voting rights - If there is only one founder that has a large percentage of ownership (like 75%), you need to make sure the terms give your vote power. This can be accomplished by each founder having 1 equal vote. If the largest owner of the company owns less than 50% interest and there are 3 or more members, there's no real fear of one person making all of the decisions. I'm sure there are other items to consider as every such agreement is unique. Best of luck!

Legal Due Diligence Checklist

New York

Asked on Jul 5, 2024

What is the importance of legal due diligence in the process of acquiring a business?

I am currently in the process of acquiring a small business and I have been advised by my financial advisor to conduct legal due diligence before finalizing the deal. I understand that legal due diligence involves reviewing the legal aspects of the target company, such as contracts, licenses, litigation history, and compliance with laws and regulations. However, I am unsure about the specific benefits and importance of conducting legal due diligence in this situation. I want to know how this process can help me identify potential risks, liabilities, and legal issues associated with the target company, and how it can protect me from future legal complications or financial losses.

Arthur S.

Answered Jul 23, 2024

Business acquisition agreements are often entered into subject and conditioned upon t he right of the Buyer to conduct a due diligence review during an agreed upon time frame ...with the obligation of the Buyer entity to finalize the deal very much contingent upon the findings of any such due diligence review. In short, the due diligence review provides the Buyer with a comfort level that the asset it is buying is what it has bargained for. A due diligence review involves a review, without limitation, of the Selling company's books and records, existing loan/debt obligations, an inventory review, a review of independent contractor/materialmen agreements, property leases and title and judgement research. Signing a purchase contract with an appropriate due diligence provision also enables the Buyer to "tie-up" asset for the agreed price during the due diligence period..
