In my thirteen years of practice, I've had the opportunity to argue cases in state, federal, and tribal courts; in subjects as diverse as gaming, land tenure, water rights, treaty rights, finance, employment, criminal defense, conflict of laws, and tort (among others).

Corporate Legal Questions and Answers
Corporate
Stock Purchase Agreement
New York
Stock purchase agreement and post-closing obligations?
I am looking to purchase a business and I recently received a Stock Purchase Agreement from the seller. I am concerned about my post-closing obligations, such as continuing to fund the business or other contractual obligations, and would like to understand what these obligations are before I commit to the purchase. I would like to know what I should be aware of and what risks I may face if I accept the agreement.
Daniel R.
I would focus on: What obligations do you have under the reps and warranties? Is there an escrow holdback? Is there any liabilities staying with you.
Corporate
Power of Attorney
California
What are the legal requirements for creating a Power of Attorney?
I am currently in the process of planning my estate and considering appointing a Power of Attorney to handle my financial and healthcare decisions in the event that I become incapacitated. However, I am unsure about the legal requirements for creating a valid Power of Attorney document. I want to ensure that I understand the necessary steps and formalities to ensure the document is legally binding and effective when needed.
Tabetha H.
Power of Attorney: Essential Legal Requirements When creating a Power of Attorney (POA), you'll need to decide between a financial POA for property and financial matters, a healthcare POA for medical decisions, or both. For estate planning purposes, making your POA "durable" is crucial as this ensures it remains effective if you become incapacitated. The legal validity of your POA depends on several core requirements. You must have mental capacity when signing the document, and your execution must be voluntary without any duress or undue influence. The document needs to clearly identify both you as the principal and your chosen agent, while specifically outlining the powers you're granting. If you want the POA to continue during incapacity, a durability clause must be explicitly included. For proper execution, your signature is the primary requirement, but most states also require one or two witnesses who aren't your agent or beneficiaries. Many jurisdictions also require notarization to make the document legally binding. These formalities vary by state, so using state-specific forms is often the safest approach. Some practical considerations include naming successor agents as backups in case your primary agent becomes unavailable. You should provide copies to relevant institutions like banks or healthcare providers while keeping the originals in a secure but accessible location. Remember that you can revoke a POA in writing as long as you still have capacity. Be aware that requirements vary significantly between states, and some financial institutions may still reject valid POAs despite legal obligations to accept them. The most common mistake is failing to include a durability provision, which would cause your POA to become invalid precisely when you need it most – during incapacity.
Corporate
LLC
Connecticut
How does an LLC work?
I am in the process of starting a business and have been advised to form an LLC. I am not familiar with the structure of an LLC, and am interested in learning more about how it works and the benefits it provides. I would like to understand the legal implications of forming an LLC and how it can help protect my personal assets.
Thomas L.
Tax: An LLC is a "pass-through" entity, so it does not pay income taxes. Instead, its owners pay income taxes on their share of the LLCs profits. So it avoids the double taxation of corporations (the corporate pays income taxes and then the stockholders pay income taxes on their dividends). 2. An LLC is controlled by its "Operating Agreement" (similar to corporate bylaws). An LLC can be set up as a limited partnership (passive investors, and the Managers have 100% control - e.g. real estate), a corporation (the investors get to vote once a year for a "Board of Managers" - a business with significant investment), or a partnership (no board, the owners all vote on every issue - a professional services firm). The choice depends on the nature of the business.
Corporate
Business Partnership Agreement
Arizona
What to include in a business partnership agreement?
I want to learn what terms are typical in a partnership agreement. Background - I am wanting to create a partnership with an SEO agency (I provide digital ads/SEM services). I want to make sure we have the right terms around profit sharing and making sure they don't poach my clients without me getting a cut of the revenue. Any help is appreciated.
Michael S.
I recommend hiring an experienced corporate attorney to help negotiate and draft the agreement. You can't be given a list of 3 or 5 pointers and then expect to negotiate the agreement yourself. There are too many pitfalls. And you wouldn't expect someone to come to you and ask you how they can do for themselves what you do, right? It's more complicated than that, and there's a reason you're a professional.
Corporate
Intellectual Property Rights Agreement
Ohio
Who controls IP in a joint venture?
I am currently considering entering into a joint venture with another company to pursue a business opportunity that may involve the creation of intellectual property (IP). I am unsure of who would have ownership and control over any IP that is created as a result of the joint venture, as it involves the contribution of resources and expertise from both companies. Therefore, I would like to seek the advice of a lawyer to better understand the legal implications and potential risks associated with the ownership and control of IP in a joint venture.
Paul S.
That's something that would be negotiated between the parties involved in the joint venture.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
