What documents are needed for LLC formation?

I am looking to form a Limited Liability Company (LLC) for a business venture that I am starting.

LLC

New York

Asked on Oct 25, 2023

Is LLC formation state-specific?

I am looking to start a business and am considering forming a limited liability company (LLC). I have heard that the LLC formation process is state-specific, and I want to make sure that I am taking the right steps to form a LLC in the correct jurisdiction. I would like to know if the LLC formation process is state-specific, and if so, what steps I should take to form a LLC in the correct jurisdiction.

Damien B.

Answered Oct 28, 2023

I understand you would like to know if an LLC formation is state-specific. And the answer is yes. Each state has its own process, rules and laws for forming an LLC in that state. Generally, a person would form and register the LLC in the state where it has a physical presence and plans to do business. However, sometimes a person may incorporate in another state and register the LLC as a foreign company in the state it plans to do business. This usually occurs if the LLC plans to operate nation wide or because of flexibility in rules, asset protection or tax reasons.

I'm assuming this is a UCC Lien on the business assets. You can file a release yourself with the IL Secretary of State. There's also an affidavit that will go with it.

Asset Purchase Agreement

Illinois

Asked on Oct 13, 2023

How is payment structured in an asset purchase agreement?

I am looking to purchase a business and am currently in the process of negotiating an asset purchase agreement. I would like to understand how the payment is structured in this agreement so that I can make sure that I am getting the best deal possible. I am looking for guidance on how to structure the payment in the agreement so that I am protected and can get the best outcome for my business.

Talin H.

Answered Oct 24, 2023

Congratulations on purchasing a business. Payment by the buyer in an asset purchase agreement can take many forms, or a combination of forms. The simplest is 1) a lump-sum, in which the total purchase price for the business is paid upfront, or 2) installment payments, in which the purchase price is divided into multiple installments over a specified period. It is a good idea to implement some conditional provisions for payment, which provides more protection for the buyer. Options include 3) an earn-out provision, which is used when the final purchase price is contingent on the future performance of the acquired assets or business. The seller may receive additional payments if certain financial targets or milestones are achieved post-acquisition; 4)contingent payments, in which you agree on a lower base purchase price, and additional payments by buyer are made only when triggered by specific events or outcomes, such as new acquisitions or product milestones. Regardless of model used, in most cases I recommend 5) escrow, in which the buyer place a portion of the purchase price in an escrow account for a certain period of time, say 12 months, in order to cover indemnification claims and disputes that arise after acquisition, that were not disclosed or unforeseen during the due diligence process. It is crucial to have the advice of an attorney you can trust through the asset purchase process. Please contact my firm if I may be of service. www.hitiklaw.com

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.
