Business Legal Questions and Answers

Employment Agreement

Oklahoma

Asked on Mar 3, 2023

Are 1099 employees responsible for there own break time and lunch time?

The job im at I am a 1099 employee but they tell us when to get here when our breaks are when our lunch is and when we leave. Doesn't that technically mean that we are W2 workers?

Jonathan K.

Answered Mar 7, 2023

First of all, there is no such thing as a 1099 employee. You are either an independent contractor or an employee. Second, yes, if you are being told when to take a break or have lunch, then you are probably an employee and not an independent contractor.

LLC Operating Agreement

California

Asked on Jun 1, 2023

LLC and capital structure?

I am the founder and owner of a small business that is in the process of transitioning to an LLC. I am interested in understanding the capital structure of an LLC and how it differs from that of a sole proprietorship. I am looking for advice on how to ensure that my business is properly capitalized and structured in order to maximize its potential for success.

Russell M.

Answered Jun 20, 2023

Well, putting aside the very important detail that an LLC offers limitation of liability and a sole proprietorship does not, the difference between a sole proprietorship and an LLC is that you can allocate the profits to others through membership interests. This means you can bring on one or more investors and allocate the capital appreciation, profit and cash flow to the investors with the same or different terms from your interest, and that you can share profits with employees through a "profits interest". There is a great deal of flexibility that you can use through a properly drafted operating agreement.

C Corp

Ohio

Asked on Jul 11, 2024

What are the steps and requirements for forming a C Corporation?

I am currently in the process of starting my own business and I have decided to structure it as a C Corporation. I have done some initial research on C Corp formation, but I am still unsure about the specific steps and requirements involved. I would like to consult with a lawyer to get a clear understanding of the process, including any necessary documents, fees, and legal obligations that come with forming a C Corporation. This information will help me ensure that I am following the correct procedures and meeting all the legal requirements in establishing my business as a C Corporation.

Paul S.

Answered Jul 12, 2024

You form a corporation by filing articles of incorporation with the Secretary of State. Then you will need initial board resolutions to authorize various post-incorporation organizational matters, as well as bylaws. You will also need to issue stock to the founders. This is the kind of project I have handled for dozens of clients.

Offer Letter

California

Asked on Dec 17, 2024

Can an employer revoke an offer letter after it has been accepted?

I recently received an offer letter for a job position that I had been interviewing for, and I accepted the offer in writing. However, a week later, the employer contacted me to inform me that they are revoking the offer due to unforeseen circumstances. I had already given notice to my current employer and made arrangements to start the new job. I am now left without a job and wondering if the employer has the right to revoke the offer letter after it has been accepted.

Phillip Z.

Answered Jan 29, 2025

Yes, employers can usually revoke an offer letter even after it's been accepted, but there are some important things to consider: At-will employment: In most states, employers can terminate employment anytime, even before the job starts. Legal risks: Rescinding offers can lead to legal issues, especially if the candidate has already taken action to their detriment based on the offer. Contracts: If the offer letter is a binding contract, revocation could be considered a breach of contract and result in damages to the employee.

Liquor License

California

Asked on Oct 23, 2024

Can a restaurant owner transfer their liquor license to a new location?

I am a restaurant owner and I am considering relocating my business to a new location within the same city. I currently have a liquor license for my existing establishment and I would like to know if it is possible to transfer this license to my new location, or if I would need to go through the application process again. I have invested a significant amount of time and money in obtaining the current license and I want to ensure that I can continue serving alcohol at my new establishment without any legal issues or delays.

Dolan W.

Answered Dec 6, 2024

Hello! My name is Dolan and I'm happy to help. As a restaurant owner in California planning to move within the same city, you can transfer your existing liquor license to the new spot through a "premises-to-premises" transfer. This involves applying to the California Department of ABC for approval. The ABC will check both your qualifications and whether the new location fits their standards. Keep in mind, that applying doesn't guarantee approval; the ABC might deny the transfer if the new place doesn't meet their criteria. To get started, you'll need to submit specific forms and fees to your local ABC district office. The process usually includes posting a public notice at the new location for 30 calendar days and possibly informing nearby residents, depending on local rules. Typically, the whole process takes about 55 to 65 days, but it can be longer if there are protests or other issues. Remember, during the transfer process, you must follow all ABC regulations, including paying any necessary renewal fees to keep your license active. If your current place is closed for 15 consecutive days, you're required to surrender your license to the ABC within that time. However, during the surrender period, which can last up to a year, you can transfer the license to another location or person, as long as all renewal fees are paid. I hope this helps! Thanks again! Dolan .
