Employment Contract

Florida

Asked on Apr 17, 2023

What's the safety policy in an employment contract?

I recently accepted a job offer from a new employer and as part of the employment contract, I need to understand the safety policy in the workplace. I understand that safety policies in the workplace are important for the protection of both employees and employers, but I am not sure of the specific details of the safety policy included in my employment contract. I would like to know what safety policies are included in the contract in order to ensure that I have a safe working environment.

Diane D.

Answered May 2, 2023

Without seeing the contract, there is no way of knowing.

Data Transfer Agreement

New York

Asked on Dec 27, 2022

New companies databases is possible?

We're a US-based company with clients around the country. We help new, small and medium businesses to grow as well. Although, we do it through marketing and sales strategies. I was wondering if an attorney is able to sell databases of companies that have recently been created in the US. What we want to do is to help these companies to grow (to be on the map, so to speak) with our strategies. I can provide more details if required. Thanks in advance

Adjckwc B.

Answered Jan 6, 2023

Business formation is public record in most states in the US. Delaware, Nevada, New Mexico, and Wyoming are exceptions. If you are looking for data on newly formed companies you can obtain the same from the Secretary of State. There are also many companies who offer data lists for sale. If you need a data transfer agreement we can assist with that as well.

S Corp

North Carolina

Asked on Aug 9, 2023

S corp and liquidation preferences?

I am a business owner who recently incorporated as an S corporation. I am interested in learning more about liquidation preferences as I am considering bringing on additional investors to help fund the business. I want to understand the implications of liquidation preferences on my ownership and the rights of the new investors.

Nicholas M.

Answered Aug 11, 2023

An S-Corp has some limitations here (such as no more than 100 share holders and only one class of stock). Depending on the control that you seek to retain in your business, you may want to transition to a full C-Corp, restructure preferred (voting) shares from equity shares, and manage your business governance (Board of Directors, Officers, Resolutions, etc.) in a way big investors will find compelling.

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 Review

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.

View Trustpilot Review

I 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. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
