Corporate Legal Questions and Answers
Corporate
Power of Attorney
California
What are the legal requirements for creating a Power of Attorney?
I am currently in the process of planning my estate and considering appointing a Power of Attorney to handle my financial and healthcare decisions in the event that I become incapacitated. However, I am unsure about the legal requirements for creating a valid Power of Attorney document. I want to ensure that I understand the necessary steps and formalities to ensure the document is legally binding and effective when needed.
Tabetha H.
Power of Attorney: Essential Legal Requirements When creating a Power of Attorney (POA), you'll need to decide between a financial POA for property and financial matters, a healthcare POA for medical decisions, or both. For estate planning purposes, making your POA "durable" is crucial as this ensures it remains effective if you become incapacitated. The legal validity of your POA depends on several core requirements. You must have mental capacity when signing the document, and your execution must be voluntary without any duress or undue influence. The document needs to clearly identify both you as the principal and your chosen agent, while specifically outlining the powers you're granting. If you want the POA to continue during incapacity, a durability clause must be explicitly included. For proper execution, your signature is the primary requirement, but most states also require one or two witnesses who aren't your agent or beneficiaries. Many jurisdictions also require notarization to make the document legally binding. These formalities vary by state, so using state-specific forms is often the safest approach. Some practical considerations include naming successor agents as backups in case your primary agent becomes unavailable. You should provide copies to relevant institutions like banks or healthcare providers while keeping the originals in a secure but accessible location. Remember that you can revoke a POA in writing as long as you still have capacity. Be aware that requirements vary significantly between states, and some financial institutions may still reject valid POAs despite legal obligations to accept them. The most common mistake is failing to include a durability provision, which would cause your POA to become invalid precisely when you need it most – during incapacity.
Corporate
Partnership Agreement
Tennessee
What is a limited partnership agreement?
Being asked to sign one and not sure what it is. I'm trying to create a partnership with a few of my colleagues and I'm concerned about the word 'limited'.
Michael S.
We really need to know more about the business and how everyone envisions ownership in order to answer the question. In general (and this is very general - I am a PA lawyer, not Tennessee), a limited partnership is an entity through which a business or property is owned. In a limited partnership, you need to have a general partner (either one more individuals or entities) who essentially manage the entity, and also have liability for all liabilities of the general partnership. The limited partners invest in the entity, but have no liability for the entity's obligations.
Corporate
Letter of Intent
Texas
Can a buyer back out of a purchase agreement?
I am trying to sell my company and the buyer has gone silent. We have top terms agreed to and a LOI signed, but we have not put a purchase agreement in place yet. Can they legally back out if we have a LOI signed?
Michael S.
With the caveat that I am a Pennsylvania and not Texas attorney, most LOI's are non-binding, unless the LOI itself provides otherwise. A lawyer would need to review the LOI to determine whether the deal can be enforced. Mostly likely, however, it cannot be enforced.
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
S Corp
California
S corp and corporate restructuring?
I am looking to restructure my business, which is incorporated as an S corp. I am looking for advice on how to best restructure the business to ensure that all legal requirements are met and that the new structure is advantageous for the business. I am considering various options such as merging with another business, changing the ownership structure, or forming a new entity. I am seeking legal advice on the best approach and the potential implications of each option.
Chris J.
Hi: Generally speaking, you have several options (many of which you've identified). 1. You can revoke S-Corp status (if you have a corporation and want C-Corp status). However, revocation won't be effective until the 2024 tax year. With that said, sometimes people inadvertently revoke S-Corp status by taking certain actions (which we can discuss). 2. You can create a new entity and structure it in the way you want (corporation, LLC, partnership, etc.). Then, you can wind down the S-Corp. 3. You can merge your existing S-Corp into an entity and have that entity survive and your S-Corp "merge out" and disappear. The approach that makes the most sense depends upon your business, the assets held by your S-Corp, and your objectives. Best regards, Chris Jackson
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
