Corporate Legal Questions and Answers
Corporate
Asset Purchase Agreement
Texas
Should asset purchase agreement be notarized?
Do we need to notarize an APA? I have tried to do research online and cannot find anything. I am trying to budget for a new acquisition and want to make sure I have all of my ducks in a row. Are there any other documents I will need?
Michael S.
First, I highly recommend you get legal representation in connection with your purchase agreement. Second, I'm not a Texas lawyer, but generally an asset purchase agreement will not need to be notarized.
Corporate

Florida

Certificate of Good Standing
California
What is a Certificate of Good Standing?
I am a small business owner in the process of applying for a business loan and I have come across the term 'Certificate of Good Standing.' I am not sure what this certificate is, why it is necessary, and how I can obtain one for my business. Could you please explain what a Certificate of Good Standing is and its significance in the context of business operations and loan applications?
Robert P.
A certificate of good standing is simply a due diligence item the lender will require showing your business entity is in "good standing" with the state in which the business was formed. "Good standing" means the business is operational and has paid its taxes (franchise taxes, etc) and is up to date on all annual fees, etc. To get the certificate, you can log on to your state of formation's secretary of state website (usually under the section entitled "business services") and you can purchase a certificate of good standing for a minimal fee.
Corporate
Corporation Agreement
California
What are the legal steps involved in forming a corporation?
I am looking to start a business and have decided on forming a corporation. However, I am unsure about the legal requirements and steps involved in the process. I understand that there are different types of corporations, such as C corporations and S corporations, and I am curious to know the specific steps I need to take to properly form a corporation, including registering with the appropriate government agencies, drafting articles of incorporation, and any other necessary legal procedures. I want to ensure that I am following all the necessary legal guidelines to establish my corporation correctly.
Dolan W.
Hello! Congrats on your decision to start a business. First, begin by selecting a unique name for your corporation and ensure it complies with CA's naming requirements. You can do a name search here - https://bizfileonline.sos.ca.gov/search/business Next, you'll need to prepare and file articles of incorporation with your state's Secretary of State office. These articles typically include details like the corporation's name, purpose, registered agent, and the number of authorized shares of stock. You can do this on the BizFile Online website. Once the articles are filed, you'll need to appoint a board of directors who will oversee the corporation's activities. The board will then draft corporate bylaws (the internal rules). Then, you get an EIN. You can get an EIN online for free. We can always help with drafting the bylaws for you. Just come back to us! Best of luck! Dolan

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!
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
