Business Legal Questions and Answers

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.

C Corp

North Carolina

Asked on Jul 26, 2023

C corp and change of control?

I am a business owner looking to form a C Corporation. I am in the process of creating the Articles of Incorporation and am interested in understanding the implications of a change of control on the C Corporation. I am looking to ensure that all necessary steps are taken to protect my business and its assets in the event of a change of control.

Nicholas M.

Answered Aug 11, 2023

These are great questions, and are going to be very specific to your corporation and how you want to run things. Generally, you can structure things however you want, but working with an Attorney on your bylaws will ensure an objective outsider is thinking through how conflicts can be resolved before they impact day-to-day business operations.

Business Partnership Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Sep 29, 2023

Can I withdraw from a business partnership agreement?

I am currently in a business partnership agreement with a colleague, and I am considering withdrawing from the partnership. We have been in the agreement for over a year and our goals and objectives have changed. I am looking for legal advice on the steps I need to take to withdraw from the agreement, and the potential legal implications of doing so.

N'kia N.

Answered Oct 9, 2023

Below is a general overview of how the process of a partner withdrawing from a partnership commonly plays out: The withdrawing partner gives written notice of withdrawal. The parties obtain business valuations to determine payout terms. The parties execute some type of withdrawal or buyout agreement that states rights, responsibilities, and restrictions (such as non-competition and non-disclosure/confidentiality), and other important terms of the deal. A partner who is considering withdrawing from the partnership should consider consulting with a knowledgeable attorney who can review the Partnership Agreement and the terms of a proposed withdrawal or buyout agreement, and either guide the partner through handling the process without representation or represent the partner through the withdrawal. Additionally, the partner might consider consulting with a tax professional regarding tax liabilities. [It is often beneficial for the partner to seek assistance from an independent attorney or tax professional, rather than one who represents the partnership or another partner.]

Dental Associate Contract

North Carolina

Asked on Jul 26, 2023

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.

Shelia H.

Answered Sep 1, 2023

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.

Certificate of Organization

North Carolina

Asked on Nov 17, 2024

What is the process for obtaining a Certificate of Organization?

I am in the process of starting a small business and I have been researching the necessary legal requirements. I came across the term 'Certificate of Organization' and I am not sure what it entails or how to obtain one. I understand that it is a document required for certain types of businesses, but I would like more information on the specific steps involved, any associated costs, and any potential legal implications.

David W.

Answered Dec 10, 2024

In North Carolina, a Certificate of Organization is a legal document filed with the Secretary of State to formally establish a limited liability company (LLC). If that is the business entity you've decided is best for you, then starting an LLC involves just a handful of key steps: Pick a Name: Find a business name that is unique and includes “LLC” or “Limited Liability Company.” Designate a Registered Agent: Choose someone who will receive legal notice on behalf of your LLC. This person or business must have a physical address in North Carolina. Prepare the Certificate: Fill out the Certificate of Organization form with details like your LLC’s name and the registered agent’s information. File the Certificate: Submit it to the North Carolina Secretary of State. This is your official step to form your LLC. The filing fee is $125. The Secretary of State also charges a $200 annual report fee to keep your LLC in good standing each year. Operating Agreement: Although not required, it’s a good idea to have one. It sets out how your LLC will be run and what each member’s role is. Taxes: Register for any state taxes you might begin to owe and obtain an EIN from the IRS for federal taxes. An LLC can be a good way to separate business and individual assets, and can serve as an effective liability shield. There are a number of differences among the various types of small business entities that you may wish to discuss with an attorney. The foregoing is not legal advice.
