Liquor License

Maine

Asked on May 13, 2022

Need help for a liquor license for a lounge/club

Need a liquor license asap in portland, or around. Maine.

Craig M.

Answered May 17, 2022

It is a multi-step process to obtain a liquor license in Portland, Maine. You must obtain approval from the City, after first obtaining approval from the Code Enforcement Officer, Public Services, Fire, Health Services, Treasury, and Police. You may also need to create an LLC or other business entity, register with the Secretary of State, obtain an EIN, among other things. I can assist at my normal hourly rate of $200, and would require a $5000 legal advance, payable through Contracts Counsel to assist. The fee Contracts Counsel charges is nonrefundable, otherwise, itemized invoicing will be periodically provided, and any unearned fees will be reimbursed to the client at the end of the project.

Non-Competition Agreement

Maine

Asked on Jul 25, 2022

Can an consultant to a company be asked to sign a Non-Compete Agreement when that company is being acquired by another company.

My husband is a consultant for a company that is being acquired by another company. The acquiring company no longer needs his services. The acquiring company is asking my husband to sign a non-compete for nothing in return. They stated that he is not an employee of the company being acquired, so financial consideration is not on the table. The acquiring company is in Maryland. The company being acquired is in Maine. Is this legal?

Jane C.

Answered Aug 12, 2022

I suggest you have an attorney review the terms of the non-compete.

Purchase Agreement

California

Asked on Oct 4, 2022

When asset purchase agreement vs. stock purchase agreement?

I am considering buying a business and I'm not sure what type of legal document I should use. I think I want to buy the business but I'm not sure what comes with that. The deal size is ~$100k and it is a printing company.

Christopher M.

Answered Oct 7, 2022

A stock purchase agreement only deals with the sale of stocks (which I know sounds a little obvious). The practical effect of which is you would own a percentage share of the company if that company is a corporation. If you used a stock purchase agreement the company would remain intact as a legal entity that you would have control over. If the company isn’t a corporation, or you’re not looking to keep the company intact, an asset purchase agreement would be you purchasing the assets of the company (up to and including the name and place of business) without necessarily taking control of the legal entity itself. Really which ever one you use they can both be drafted to accomplish your goals and more information would be needed to assess which one is right in your specific situation.

Business Partnership Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Sep 29, 2023

Can I withdraw from a business partnership agreement?

I am currently in a business partnership agreement with a colleague, and I am considering withdrawing from the partnership. We have been in the agreement for over a year and our goals and objectives have changed. I am looking for legal advice on the steps I need to take to withdraw from the agreement, and the potential legal implications of doing so.

N'kia N.

Answered Oct 9, 2023

Below is a general overview of how the process of a partner withdrawing from a partnership commonly plays out: The withdrawing partner gives written notice of withdrawal. The parties obtain business valuations to determine payout terms. The parties execute some type of withdrawal or buyout agreement that states rights, responsibilities, and restrictions (such as non-competition and non-disclosure/confidentiality), and other important terms of the deal. A partner who is considering withdrawing from the partnership should consider consulting with a knowledgeable attorney who can review the Partnership Agreement and the terms of a proposed withdrawal or buyout agreement, and either guide the partner through handling the process without representation or represent the partner through the withdrawal. Additionally, the partner might consider consulting with a tax professional regarding tax liabilities. [It is often beneficial for the partner to seek assistance from an independent attorney or tax professional, rather than one who represents the partnership or another partner.]

LLC

Texas

Asked on Jan 11, 2022

Change from S-Corp to an LLC?

I made an llc when I bought a rental property in houston. But I made it a s corp.

T. Phillip B.

Answered Jan 11, 2022

Making the change isn't hard and is a filing with the IRS. However, you are going to need to talk with someone (tax attorney or CPA) about potential tax consequences for any properties already owned by the LLC.

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.

View Trustpilot Review

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.

View Trustpilot Review

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. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
