Business Legal Questions and Answers
Business
Partnership Agreement
New York
What's a buy-sell clause in a partnership agreement?
I am forming a partnership with a business partner and we are in the process of creating a partnership agreement. We understand the importance of having a buy-sell clause in the agreement and we want to make sure that our interests are protected in the event that one of us chooses to leave the partnership. We are looking for more information on what this clause should include and the legal implications of it.
Damien B.
There are numerous variations of a buy-sell provision, clause or agreement. Generally, the provision is for one of the other owners (or the entity) to purchase the ownership interest of the one who has died or wants to leave the business. For example the parties enter into a buy/sell agreement to effect the purchase of the deceased partner's share upon such partner's death, to be funded by life insurance policies. There could also be an agreement for the entity itself to redeem the shares or membership interest depending on the type of entity Also, sometimes there is another type of triggering event other than an owner's death. Overall though, the buy/sell clause is a way to keep the ownership of the entity with the existing owners rather than having a third party become one of the owners of the business. So a buy-sell clause, provision or agreements alleviate the concern over what happens if a partner dies, leaves the business suddenly or retires.

Project Collaboration Agreement
California
What are the key provisions that should be included in a Project Collaboration Agreement?
with background: I am currently working on a collaborative project with another individual and we want to formalize our agreement through a Project Collaboration Agreement. We plan to work together to develop and market a new software product. We have already discussed the general terms of our collaboration, but we want to ensure that the agreement covers all necessary provisions to protect both parties' interests, including ownership of intellectual property, profit sharing, dispute resolution, and confidentiality. What are the key provisions that should be included in a Project Collaboration Agreement to ensure a fair and comprehensive agreement for both parties?
Dolan W.
Hello and welcome to ContractsCounsel.com! My name is Dolan. So first things first is the scope of work. You don't want "project creep" to show up. Lawyers often have to deal with this as well because sometimes the scope of what we do is exceeded by clients on occasion, so being clear on the scope is super important. Also, if you’re both putting in money or other resources, spell out what those are and how they’ll be tracked and you might want to include details on how future expenses will be approved and who’s footing the bill for what. Confidentiality and what to do with the IP is also going to be super important, too. Also, other things like what happens if a party doesn't perform, how you'll handle disputes, where you will handle them, and where notices will be sent are super important. Also, what about decision-making disputes? Think about how those will get handled. Finally, think about profit sharing as well! Come on back to this site and we can draft one up for you!

What is the most important thing for me to know as a small business?
I am starting my own business.
Donya G.
Never sign a contract without a lawyer reviewing it. Signing a document and being obligated to a contract that has not been reviewed can be detrimental to your business. If you and the other party disagree on the agreement, it will cost approximately 5-10 times more to litigate and defend yourself than it would cost to review the initial document and ensure you and your company are protected. DISCLAIMER The answers to these questions do not constitute legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship with the attorney and anyone who reviews these responses.

Dental Associate Contract
North Carolina
Dental associate contract practice sale clauses?
I am a dental associate looking to purchase a practice from a retiring dentist. I am in the process of reviewing the contract and have some questions about the sale clauses. I am concerned about the terms of the sale and would like to understand the implications of certain clauses in the contract.

Here are a couple of items you should pay close attention to: 1. Be clear about what you are purchasing. There should be an itemized list of personal business property. You will also want to make sure that you have included digital and intellectual property assets. For each item, you will want to make sure that there are no liens on the property and that no one else has any ownership interest in the property. 2. Be clear about any non-compete provisions that you need to have in the agreement. The last thing you want is for the seller to open a competing office or become an investor in a competing practice that's right across the street from you and have your anticipated clients move to the new practice. You need to pay particular attention to how this provision is crafted, given that there are major concerns about restrictions such as non-competes. Additionally, some states have already banned non-competes for employees who are doctors, and the Federal Trade Commission is expected to vote on new rules concerning non-competes in 2024. 3. Thoroughly research and analyze the profit and loss statements, taxes, and employment records. Make sure you understand the cash flow of the operation. It's best to consider having an accountant review all of these documents. These are just three things to think about when purchasing any business. There are many more. Hiring an experienced attorney is one of the best things that you can do to make sure that you are assessing the risks associated with the purchase.

Non-Competition Agreement
Maine
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.
I suggest you have an attorney review the terms of the non-compete.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
