I represent a diverse mix in a vast array of specialties, including litigation, contracts, compliance, business and financial strategies, and emerging industries. Credit for this foundation of strength goes to those who taught me. Skilled professors and professionals fostered my powerful educational and professional background. Prior to law school, I earned dual Bachelor’s degrees in Business Administration & Accounting from Peru State College. I received a Master of Business Administration degree from Chadron State College. My ambitions did not stop there. While working full time as a Senior Accountant for the University of Missouri, Columbia, I achieved the lifelong goal of becoming a licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Mizzo provided excellent opportunities and amazing experiences. Managing over $50M in government and private research funding was a gift. As a high ranking professional in the Department of Research, I was given priceless insight into the greatest scientific, journalistic, medical, and legal minds in the world. My passion for successful growth did not, and has not stopped. I graduated summa cum laude (top 3%) with a Doctorate in Law, emphasizing in urban, land use and environmental/toxic tort law from the University of Missouri, Kansas City. This success lead to invaluable experiences of serving as Hon. Brian C. Wimes' judicial clerk for the U.S. District Court for the W. D. of Missouri, as a staff editor/writer for UMKC Law Review, and as a litigation and transactional attorney with Lathrop GPM (fka Lathrop & Gage). My professional and personal network is expansive, with established relationships throughout the U.S. and overseas. Although I engage in legal practice all over the country, I maintain law licenses in Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Federally, I hold licenses in the W.D. and E.D. of Missouri and the District of Nebraska. To offer extra value, efficiency, and options, I maintain a CPA license and am obtaining a real-estate brokerage license.

Website Agreement

Texas

Asked on Jan 27, 2025

Is it necessary for my website to have a Terms of Service agreement?

I am in the process of launching a new website that will offer services and allow users to create accounts. I have heard that having a Terms of Service agreement is important to protect my website and outline the rights and responsibilities of users, but I am unsure if it is legally necessary and what specific elements it should include.

Jennifer B.

Answered Jan 28, 2025

Every website that offers services and lets users create accounts needs Terms of Service - it's like having a contract with your users. It's crucial, especially in Texas. Recent Texas court cases have made it clear: you need to make sure users actually see and agree to your terms. The StubHub case is a perfect example. The court looked at whether users had fair notice of the terms and actively showed they agreed to them. The best way to do this is with what we call a "clickwrap" agreement - that's where users have to click "I agree" during sign-up. Your Terms of Service should include: ACCEPTANCE: Clear instructions on how users accept the terms - that "I agree" button. Then, spell out exactly what services you're providing and what users can and can't do on your site. PRIVACY POLICY: You'll also need a privacy policy section that explains how you handle user data. Depending upon your services and the nature of the data you are collecting and from where your users are arriving, you may need separate detailed privacy policy and a cookie policy. ADDITIONAL: You'll want sections on how disputes get resolved (like arbitration), limits on your liability, and your right to update the terms later. Getting this right protects you legally and sets clear expectations with your users.

Joint Venture Contract

Texas

Asked on Mar 21, 2023

Any tax benefits of a joint venture?

I am currently exploring the possibility of forming a joint venture with another company to pursue a business opportunity. While I am aware of the potential benefits of sharing resources and expertise with another company, I am also interested in understanding if there are any tax advantages to forming a joint venture. Therefore, I would like to seek the advice of a lawyer to guide me through the potential tax benefits and implications of a joint venture.

Jimmy V.

Answered Mar 21, 2023

A joint venture is a type of partnership. Unless the partnership elects to be taxed like a corporation, it is a pass-through entity for income tax purposes. In other words, there is no taxation at the company level, just at the individual level.

Joint Venture Agreement

Texas

Asked on Mar 21, 2023

What's normal term in a joint venture?

I am currently in discussions with another company to form a joint venture to pursue a business opportunity. As part of our negotiations, we are trying to determine the appropriate term for the joint venture, including the duration of the joint venture and the conditions under which it can be extended or terminated. However, I am unclear on what is considered a normal or typical term for a joint venture, and what factors should be considered when determining the length of the venture. Therefore, I would like to seek the advice of a lawyer to guide me through the process of negotiating the term of the joint venture and to ensure that the terms are legally sound and meet my needs.

Jimmy V.

Answered Mar 21, 2023

A joint venture is a partnership organized for a specific purpose. Let's say that you formed a joint venture to renovate a house and sell it. The joint venture ends once the project is completed. In this case the joint venture would end when you sold the house, PS For more information about business entities, download a free copy of my ebook "Should Your Small Business Become a Corporation or an LLC?

LLC Articles of Organization

Texas

Asked on Oct 25, 2023

What is LLC formation?

I am in the process of starting a business and am looking to protect my personal assets from any potential liabilities of the business. I have heard that setting up a LLC can help with this, but I am not sure what it entails. I am looking to learn more about LLC formation and to understand the benefits and drawbacks of this type of business structure.

Jimmy V.

Answered Nov 21, 2023

LLC formation means the process by which one sets up an LLC. The process begins with a filing with the state. The filing is usually called Articles of Organization. The LLC must then adopt an Operating Agreement which is much like a partnership agreement. Finally, the LLC will need to obtain an Employer Identification Number from the IRS.

Business Contract

Texas

Asked on Sep 23, 2023

Jurisdiction for a business contract?

I am starting a new business venture and need to create a business contract. I am unsure of which jurisdiction the contract should be written in, as my business will have operations in multiple states. I am looking for advice on which jurisdiction would be most suitable for my business contract.

Curt L.

Answered Oct 10, 2023

I most instances, I would specify in the contract that the laws of the State of your principal office and business operations apply to the contract. I would also include a mandatory local jurisdiction and local venue for the same reasons. Choice of Law, Jurisdiction, and Venue are each separate concepts.
