I am trying to attend a Las Vegas fashion trade show called Magic, and to register, I need a letter of intent on official letter head from an attorney. Stating intent, type of business, and anticipated start date. I was wondering if thats something any attorney can do, and what documents you would need to do official letter of intent. Thank you.

Business
LLC Operating Agreement
Kansas
Can an LLC operating agreement be modified without the consent of all members?
Can an LLC operating agreement be modified without the consent of all members? I am a member of an LLC and we have been operating under a certain agreement for several years. However, there have been some changes in our business and it is necessary to make amendments to the operating agreement. One of the members is reluctant to agree to the changes, but the majority of us believe it is in the best interest of the company. We want to know if it is possible to modify the operating agreement without the unanimous consent of all members, and if so, what steps are required to do so legally.
Cherie M.
It primarily depends on what your operating agreement says regarding consent for making changes. That will control the process. If it is just changes to the operating agreement, it does not need to be reported to the Secretary of State. Changes to the Articles of Organization would need to be reported, however.
Business
Trust Agreement
South Carolina
I would like to use my family trust as a business. How do I structure the trust or change terms to use it for business?
I have my home in a trust to pass on to my children. However I would like to use as a rental to help generate additional income.
Christopher B.
You can structure the trust in several ways. It depends on exactly what your goals are, if you are looking for asset protection or another goal, tax goals, etc. Would need to speak with you to get some more information to help advise you on the best route to take to achieve your goals.
Business
LLC
Florida
What are the steps involved in forming an LLC?
I am interested in starting my own business and have decided that forming a limited liability company (LLC) is the best option for me. However, I am unsure about the specific steps involved in the LLC formation process, such as filing the necessary paperwork, obtaining an employer identification number (EIN), and drafting an operating agreement. I would like to understand the entire process in order to ensure that I comply with all legal requirements and set up my LLC properly.
Ralph S.
An attorney on this site can help you with all the steps, some offer it a a package. You first need to decide on the membership structure (who owns what). File Articles of Organization with the State, obtain your ein, draft your operating agreement (have a discussion re who does what), prepare your members resolutions/ have a meeting- to issue your membership interests and appoint the person to open your bank account. Verify what subsequent steps you need to take in your county/city because these are different; verify if your kind of activity requires registration with state and or county. With regard to address and documents, remember that Florida requires a physical address (no PO Box) and that banks have been more and more difficult about using virtual addresses in recent months.
Business
Employment Contract
California
What is fixed term employment contract?
I have been given a contract that says 'Fixed Term Employment Contract'. How is this different than a normal employment contract? Is there anything I need to consider before signing this?
Michael M.
This is an agreement that has a fixed amount of years which is agreed to by the employer and the employee. These types of agreements usually have a term of say 1, 2, or 3 years and often are renewable for another fixed term
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
