Small Business Legal Questions and Answers

Small Business

LLC

Texas

Asked on Jan 1, 2025

What is the purpose of a Certificate of Organization?

I am in the process of starting a new business and I have been advised to file a Certificate of Organization. I understand that this document is required for limited liability companies (LLCs) and serves as proof of the company's existence. However, I would like to know more about the specific purpose of a Certificate of Organization, what information it typically includes, and any potential legal implications or consequences of not filing this document.

Phillip Z.

Answered Jan 25, 2025

A Certificate of Organization as your LLC's birth certificate in Texas. When you file Form 205, you're officially creating your business and getting all the legal protections that come with it. You'll need to include some basic info: - your company name (with "LLC" in it), - who'll receive any legal papers (that's your registered agent), - where you're located, and - how the company will be managed. You must send the $300 filing fee to the Texas Secretary of State with Form 205. Just remember—without this certificate, your business isn't officially recognized. That means you could be personally liable for any business debts or legal issues, and you'll have trouble with basic things like opening a bank account.

Waiver And Release Agreement

Texas

Asked on Feb 11, 2022

I am a tennis coach as a side hustle in Austin, TX. Considering getting basic general liability coverage with an insurance company. If I do I would need to have my students sign a waiver. Is this something you can help with and is it absolutely necessary to have the document notarized or not?

A waiver and release of liability is a good idea. We can draft a provision for you to include in your existing agreement or as a stand alone waiver agreement. It is not necessary that waiver be notarized.

Startup Stock Option

Kansas

Asked on Jun 12, 2025

What are the key elements to include in a startup agreement?

I am in the process of starting a new business with a partner and we want to ensure that we have a solid legal foundation for our venture. We are looking to draft a startup agreement that will outline the rights, responsibilities, and ownership structure for both of us. We want to make sure that all important aspects such as equity distribution, decision-making authority, and exit strategies are properly addressed in the agreement. What are the key elements that should be included in a startup agreement to protect both parties and ensure a smooth operation of our business?

Christopher N.

Answered Jun 13, 2025

The answer to your question depends on a variety of factors, the number of partners, the amount of money involved, the underlying business, e.g., is intellectual property involved, or is it restaurant, and the combines risks associated with the business. At a minimum, you need to detail: who owns how much of the company (50/50; 30/70); how much capital is going to be invested by each party and when that money is to be invested; how is that money to be spent and who can spend that money (and what are the limits); what decisions can be made and who has to approve them (vote or unilateral decisions); who is going to manage the day-to-day operations; what are the requirements for adding capital (and where it comes from) ... and how (or when) to withdrawal capital; how are partners added (or withdrawal voluntarily or forcibly); and, much much more. However, many times forming a small company is a very simple affair, but can be complicated. We highly recommend you speak with an attorney that specializes in small businesses. A good attorney will be able to help you with formation, but also be your (non-owner) partner, "outside general counsel," and faciliator of contacts to help you grow your business. Good luck!

Business Entity

Illinois

Asked on Mar 17, 2022

I have an LLC for rental investment. Can i use the LLC to do independent corp to corp work.

Currently employed, with investment property under LLC. Would like to do independent contract work.

T. Phillip B.

Answered Mar 25, 2022

The question isn't whether you can do it, but is whether you SHOULD do it. You definitely would be able to do other work within the LLC. However, in doing so, now you active work and passive income are getting combined which would likely subject your passive income to the 15.3% self employment tax. Let me know if you have any questions on how to structure the businesses.

Liability Waiver

North Carolina

Asked on Nov 27, 2023

Does every participant need a liability waiver?

I am a small business owner who is planning to hold an event for a group of participants. I am looking to ensure that everyone involved is properly protected in the event of any accidents or injuries. In order to do this, I am considering having participants sign a liability waiver. I want to make sure that I have the right legal protection in place and would like to know if every participant needs to sign a liability waiver.

Shelia H.

Answered Dec 10, 2023

Yes. If you are having an event, every participant needs a liability waiver. This is especially important if the event includes activities that may result in someone getting hurt. Additionally, it provides you with an opportunity to disclose the possible hazards and an opportunity for the participant to make an informed decision regarding whether to attend and participate. Finally, even if you have a waiver, you will also want to supplement the waiver with insurance that will cover your event.

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.
