LLC Operating Agreement
Idaho
Who do I submit my operating agreement to?
I understand that for a LLC for rental property, liabilty protection, an operating agreement is good. However, once this is completed, what do you do with the agreement to ensure your protected? Does it get filed with the State of the LLC or is it something that can just be filed away at home. It seems it would need to be filed or someone could just change the agreement at home dependent on any situation that came up to protect themselves better which seem like fraud.
T. Phillip B.
The operating agreement is just one of the many things you need to do to show that you are treating this LLC as separate from you personally. With that being said, you will put the operating agreement into a records books with other things like your articles of organization, other government filings, membership ledger, etc. Then keep it at the primary place of business.
Business
Nondisclosure Agreement
California
Are non disclosure agreements enforceable?
I keep getting asked to sign NDAs and I'm not sure how enforceable they are?
Christopher M.
So non-disclosure agreements will typically be enforceable for a reasonable time depending on the content of the information contained in the NDA. It will really depend on the specifics of the NDA and the information released to you. Most NDAs do allow you to discuss the matters with counsel so if you are concerned about any specific agreement it would probably be best to have them reviewed by an attorney.
Business
Stock Purchase Agreement
California
Stock purchase agreement legal requirements?
I am looking to purchase stock in a company and I want to ensure that I am legally protected. I am looking to enter into a Stock Purchase Agreement with the company, and I want to make sure that all legal requirements are met before I sign the agreement. I am looking for advice on what legal requirements need to be met in order for the Stock Purchase Agreement to be legally binding.
Russell M.
It's important to note that this is not an exhaustive list, and specific considerations may vary depending on the circumstances. Consulting with a qualified attorney is crucial to tailor the agreement to your specific needs. Here are some key areas to focus on: 1. Stock Description: Clearly define the shares being purchased, including the class of stock, number of shares, and any special rights or restrictions associated with the shares. You absolutely want to see the full record of the articles of incorporation, bylaws and any possibly existing shareholder agreements that could modify your rights in any way. 2. Purchase Price and Payment Terms: Specify the agreed-upon purchase price, payment structure (e.g., lump sum or installment), and any contingencies or adjustments based on audited financial statements or other factors. 3. The stock sale transaction is approved by the Board of Directors and possibly the Shareholders. You should be able to see the corporate action, either as a Written Consent or a Resolution taken by vote and certified by the corporate Secretary, who is the officer responsible for recording the minutes. 4. Representations and Warranties: Require the seller to make certain representations and warranties regarding the company's financial condition, assets, liabilities, contracts, intellectual property, compliance with laws, and any pending litigation. 5. Conditions Precedent: Specify the conditions that must be met before the transaction can be completed, such as obtaining necessary regulatory approvals, consents, or waivers. 6. Due Diligence: You should conduct thorough due diligence on the company, its financial records, contracts, intellectual property, and any other relevant aspects to identify any potential issues or risks. Generally, an acknowledgement of your access to, and conduct of, due diligence is good to include in the agreement. 7. Proper completion of any securities filing. Particularly if you are not the only investor, past present, or future, you should expect and require the company to be compliant with securities rules. Failure to observe the securities rules is red flag. 8. Governing Law and Jurisdiction: Determine the governing law and jurisdiction that will apply to the interpretation and enforcement of the agreement. Remember also that if you are investing in a corporation that is incorporated in a state other than where you reside, that state corporation law will generally govern your shareholder rights.
Business
Partnership Agreement
New York
How is the partnership agreement enforced?
I am a co-owner of a small business with a partner. We recently created a partnership agreement to outline the roles and responsibilities of each partner. We have been in business for a few months now, but I am concerned that the agreement is not being consistently enforced. I am seeking legal advice on how to ensure that the partnership agreement is being adhered to.
Damien B.
Hello! I understand you want to know how to enforce a partnership agreement. When a signatory/party to a partnership agreement violates any of the terms and conditions contained within the agreement, the other signatory or signatories to the agreement could allege breach of contract, including breaching the covenant to act in good faith. Generally also, court have found that there is a fiduciary relationship among partners. So, another potential claim could be a breach of fiduciary duty. Generally, prior to filing of any lawsuit, courts want to see that there was a good faith effort to resolves issues prior to the filing of a lawsuit. So, if there is a way to resolve the issue without the need for litigation that could save time and money.

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 ReviewI 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 ReviewI 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.
