I represent a diverse mix in a vast array of specialties, including litigation, contracts, compliance, business and financial strategies, and emerging industries. Credit for this foundation of strength goes to those who taught me. Skilled professors and professionals fostered my powerful educational and professional background. Prior to law school, I earned dual Bachelor’s degrees in Business Administration & Accounting from Peru State College. I received a Master of Business Administration degree from Chadron State College. My ambitions did not stop there. While working full time as a Senior Accountant for the University of Missouri, Columbia, I achieved the lifelong goal of becoming a licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Mizzo provided excellent opportunities and amazing experiences. Managing over $50M in government and private research funding was a gift. As a high ranking professional in the Department of Research, I was given priceless insight into the greatest scientific, journalistic, medical, and legal minds in the world. My passion for successful growth did not, and has not stopped. I graduated summa cum laude (top 3%) with a Doctorate in Law, emphasizing in urban, land use and environmental/toxic tort law from the University of Missouri, Kansas City. This success lead to invaluable experiences of serving as Hon. Brian C. Wimes' judicial clerk for the U.S. District Court for the W. D. of Missouri, as a staff editor/writer for UMKC Law Review, and as a litigation and transactional attorney with Lathrop GPM (fka Lathrop & Gage). My professional and personal network is expansive, with established relationships throughout the U.S. and overseas. Although I engage in legal practice all over the country, I maintain law licenses in Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Federally, I hold licenses in the W.D. and E.D. of Missouri and the District of Nebraska. To offer extra value, efficiency, and options, I maintain a CPA license and am obtaining a real-estate brokerage license.

"Morgan delivered far beyond the price point. He didn't just review our investor package — he caught gaps two other reviewers missed (including a top-tier venture firm we benchmarked him against), rebuilt the custom documents to professional standard, and added missing closing mechanics we didn't even know we needed: the 83(b) election, escrow instructions, stock assignment. He pushed back on his own client when the documents said otherwise — that's the lawyer you want. §144 analysis citing the 2025 Delaware reform, triple anti-broker-dealer protections, a related-party ARR cap he invented on his own — depth you'd expect at five times the fee, closed out with a proper written memo on firm letterhead. The timeline ran a bit longer than planned in places, but the result was more than worth it: every item closed, every question answered, the whole package consistent and ready to sign. Very happy overall — would hire again, and our next project is already queued."

Can you explain the key provisions that should be included in a Teaming Agreement for a joint venture in the construction industry?

I am currently in discussions with another construction company to form a joint venture for a large infrastructure project. We have decided to enter into a Teaming Agreement to outline the terms and conditions of our collaboration. However, I am unsure about the key provisions that should be included in this agreement to ensure a fair and mutually beneficial partnership.

Employee Contract

Massachusetts

Asked on Aug 18, 2025

Can I file a claim for unpaid overtime wages?

I have been working for a small consulting firm for the past two years, and I recently discovered that I have not been receiving overtime pay despite regularly working more than 40 hours per week. According to my employment contract, I am classified as an exempt employee, but after researching the Fair Labor Standards Act, I believe that I may be misclassified and entitled to overtime compensation. I would like to know if I have a valid claim for unpaid overtime wages and what steps I should take to pursue this matter legally.

Frank G.

Answered Sep 26, 2025

If you are "non-exempt" and thereby entitled to overtime. Determining whether a worker is an "exempt" employee and not entitled to overtime requires application of the law to the facts. For instance, an "exempt" executive employee are paid not less than $455 per week, have their primary duty to manage part of the busisess, regularly direct the work of two or more other employees, and have the authority to hire or fire other employees or to make recommendations about hiring and firing taken into account by their employers. An "exempt" administrative employee, are also paid at least $455 a week and has the primary duty of the performance of office or non-manual work directly related to the management or general business operations of the employer or its customers--and is an employee whose primary duty for the employer involves exercising their discretion and independent judgment with respect to matters significant to the employer. It's not always easy to determine if someone is a managerial or administrative employee however and it can be a gray area. There are lots of examples of overtime exemptions such as computer and creative professionals, outside sales people, some truck drviers, some mechanics and some people working at auto dealerships. You may be non-exempt and eligible for overtime under the law if you are a paid a salary based on a 40 hour work week but work more than 40 hours. If you are eligible for overtime there are laws protecting you from retaliation for complaining about not being paid overtime.

Business Entity

North Carolina

Asked on Jul 16, 2024

What is the process for registering a foreign entity in the United States?

I am a business owner based in Canada and I am considering expanding my operations to the United States. I have been researching the legal requirements and it seems that I need to register my Canadian company as a foreign entity in the US. I would like to understand the process involved in this registration, including any necessary documents, fees, and potential tax implications.

David W.

Answered Aug 27, 2024

Registering a Canadian entity to do business in the United States involves several key steps, which can differ slightly depending on the state. The following may help you through the process, but should not be considered legal advice: Choose the State: Decide which state(s) you will be doing business in, as each has its own specific requirements and procedures for foreign entity registration. Appoint a Registered Agent: Select a registered agent within the state. This person or business entity will receive legal and tax documents on behalf of your company and must have a physical address in the state. Check Business Name Availability: Ensure your business name is available in the chosen state. If needed, reserve the name to guarantee it’s available when you file your registration. Prepare Necessary Documents: Typically, you will need to file a Certificate of Authority (also known as Foreign Qualification or Application for Registration). This document generally requires: The name of your business. The state or country where your business was originally formed. The date of formation. The principal office address. The address of the registered agent in the state. Names and addresses of directors, officers, or members. Get a Certificate of Good Standing: Obtain a Certificate of Good Standing (or Certificate of Existence) from the province in Canada where your business was formed. This document verifies that your business is in compliance with local laws. File with the State: Submit the completed Certificate of Authority and the Certificate of Good Standing to the state’s Secretary of State office or equivalent authority, along with any required filing fees. Pay the Filing Fees: Filing fees vary by state. Check the specific fee for the state you are registering in. Get an Employer Identification Number (EIN): Apply for an EIN from the IRS if you haven’t done so already. This is necessary if you will have employees or if it’s required for other federal tax purposes. Register for State Taxes: Register for state taxes, including state income tax, sales tax, and employment taxes, if applicable. Maintain Compliance: Stay compliant with ongoing state requirements, such as filing annual reports, paying franchise taxes, and maintaining a registered agent. Each state may have additional requirements or steps, so it’s a good idea to consult with a legal or business professional who is familiar with the regulations in the state where you plan to register.

S Corp

Arizona

Asked on Sep 8, 2024

What are the advantages and disadvantages of forming an S-Corporation for my small business?

I am a small business owner and I am considering forming an S-Corporation for my company. I have heard that there are certain tax benefits and liability protections associated with this type of entity, but I am unsure of the specifics. Additionally, I am concerned about the administrative and legal requirements of maintaining an S-Corporation and how it may impact my business operations. I would like to understand the advantages and disadvantages of forming an S-Corporation in order to make an informed decision.

Daniel D.

Answered Sep 20, 2024

Advantages of Forming an S-Corporation Tax Benefits: Pass-Through Taxation: An S-Corp does not pay federal income taxes at the corporate level. Instead, the income, deductions, and credits "pass through" to the shareholders, who report them on their personal tax returns. This avoids the "double taxation" that occurs with a C-Corporation. Self-Employment Tax Savings: As an S-Corp owner, you can divide income between salary and distributions. Only the salary portion is subject to payroll taxes (Medicare and Social Security), while distributions are not. This can reduce self-employment taxes. Tax Deductibility: Expenses such as health insurance premiums for shareholders may be deductible, along with business expenses. Liability Protection: Like other corporations, an S-Corp provides personal liability protection. Your personal assets (e.g., house, personal bank accounts) are generally shielded from business debts and legal actions against the company, provided you follow corporate formalities. Credibility: Forming an S-Corp can give your business greater credibility with customers, vendors, and lenders. It shows you are a legitimate business entity, which may help when seeking financing or contracts. Potential State Tax Benefits: Some states provide additional tax benefits for S-Corps, although this varies by state. Disadvantages of Forming an S-Corporation Ownership Restrictions: An S-Corp can have no more than 100 shareholders, and all shareholders must be U.S. citizens or residents. This can limit the growth potential if you plan to bring in additional investors. S-Corps can only issue one class of stock, which may restrict your ability to attract certain types of investors or structure equity creatively. Administrative and Legal Requirements: Corporate Formalities: S-Corps must adhere to certain formalities, such as holding annual shareholder meetings, maintaining a board of directors, keeping detailed records, and filing required documents with the state. Failure to follow these rules can result in losing your liability protection. Payroll Requirements: If you work in the business, you must pay yourself a reasonable salary, which adds payroll administrative costs. You’ll also have to withhold and pay employment taxes on that salary. Tax Complexity: While S-Corps offer tax advantages, they also bring complexity, especially when it comes to classifying distributions versus salary. Misclassification can trigger IRS audits or penalties. Some states do not recognize S-Corporation status, meaning your business may still be subject to state-level corporate taxes. Limited Flexibility in Income Allocation: S-Corps require that profits and losses be allocated strictly based on ownership percentage. This limits flexibility if you want to allocate profits disproportionately among shareholders.
