Business Purchase Agreement

North Carolina

Asked on Oct 19, 2023

Does a business purchase agreement need notarization?

I am in the process of purchasing a business and I have been presented with a business purchase agreement. I want to make sure that I am making the right decision and that all documents are properly documented. I understand that some legal documents may require notarization and I wanted to confirm if a business purchase agreement requires notarization.

N'kia N.

Answered Oct 30, 2023

North Carolina does not require business purchase agreements to be notarized. However, some documents related to the business purchase deal might require notarization. For example, any deeds needed for the deal will likely have to be notarized. Some business purchase deals are pretty simple, while others can be rather complex. In many situations, it is ideal for each party to have at least one attorney representing them in the negotiations and preparing the necessary documents. If you have questions or concerns about a business purchase agreement, you might consider consulting with a knowledgeable corporate attorney. Good luck!

Intellectual Property Rights Agreement

Ohio

Asked on Mar 21, 2023

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.

Answered Mar 31, 2023

That's something that would be negotiated between the parties involved in the joint venture.

Business Partnership Agreement

Arizona

Asked on Oct 4, 2022

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.

Answered Nov 4, 2022

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.

It truly depends on the context in which they are being used. Both clauses outline the terms under which you get out of the contract.

Corporation Agreement

California

Asked on Oct 4, 2024

What are the legal steps involved in forming a corporation?

I am looking to start a business and have decided on forming a corporation. However, I am unsure about the legal requirements and steps involved in the process. I understand that there are different types of corporations, such as C corporations and S corporations, and I am curious to know the specific steps I need to take to properly form a corporation, including registering with the appropriate government agencies, drafting articles of incorporation, and any other necessary legal procedures. I want to ensure that I am following all the necessary legal guidelines to establish my corporation correctly.

Dolan W.

Answered Oct 22, 2024

Hello! Congrats on your decision to start a business. First, begin by selecting a unique name for your corporation and ensure it complies with CA's naming requirements. You can do a name search here - https://bizfileonline.sos.ca.gov/search/business Next, you'll need to prepare and file articles of incorporation with your state's Secretary of State office. These articles typically include details like the corporation's name, purpose, registered agent, and the number of authorized shares of stock. You can do this on the BizFile Online website. Once the articles are filed, you'll need to appoint a board of directors who will oversee the corporation's activities. The board will then draft corporate bylaws (the internal rules). Then, you get an EIN. You can get an EIN online for free. We can always help with drafting the bylaws for you. Just come back to us! Best of luck! Dolan
