Client Service Contract

Illinois

Asked on Oct 4, 2022

How does a contract protect your business?

I provide services to clients and I am considering getting a contract in place for my services. What are the benefits of having one? I haven't had any disputes with customers yet but I also want to make sure I am protected.

Michael S.

Answered Oct 18, 2022

With the caveat that I'm a Pennsylvania and not Illinois attorney, a contract establishes the rights and responsibilities of the parties. Whether you realize it, when you enter into a deal with a customer, you establish and oral contract. A written contract is much easier to enforce, and to prove the terms, because they are in writing. You are much less likely to run into disputes down the line. And for the most part, customers appreciate the certainty as well.

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.

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

Michael S.

Answered Oct 28, 2022

Good morning. With the caveat that I am a Pennsylvania attorney, as the buyer, you do want to buy the assets and not the company. The drafting of the purchase agreement is critical, ensuring that you are not responsible for existing debt. You will also want to obtain an indemnification from the seller, to make sure you are protected in case any of the creditors come after you. Obviously, the details of the deal may complicate things, but that is the gist.

I am the owner of an established S Corp. I am planning to restructure the business in order to bring on additional shareholders and expand the Board of Directors.

LLC

Connecticut

Asked on Jun 1, 2023

How does an LLC work?

I am in the process of starting a business and have been advised to form an LLC. I am not familiar with the structure of an LLC, and am interested in learning more about how it works and the benefits it provides. I would like to understand the legal implications of forming an LLC and how it can help protect my personal assets.

Thomas L.

Answered Jun 30, 2023

Tax: An LLC is a "pass-through" entity, so it does not pay income taxes. Instead, its owners pay income taxes on their share of the LLCs profits. So it avoids the double taxation of corporations (the corporate pays income taxes and then the stockholders pay income taxes on their dividends). 2. An LLC is controlled by its "Operating Agreement" (similar to corporate bylaws). An LLC can be set up as a limited partnership (passive investors, and the Managers have 100% control - e.g. real estate), a corporation (the investors get to vote once a year for a "Board of Managers" - a business with significant investment), or a partnership (no board, the owners all vote on every issue - a professional services firm). The choice depends on the nature of the business.

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.
