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).

LLC Articles of Organization
Texas
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.
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 Partnership Agreement
Texas
Business partnership agreement for short projects?
I am looking to start a business partnership with another individual. We are both interested in working together on short-term projects, but we want to ensure that our partnership is legally binding and properly structured to protect both of our interests. We have discussed the details of our agreement, but I would like to have a lawyer review the agreement to ensure that it is legally sound.
Jimmy V.
In a partnership, each of you is liable for all debts of the partnership. Your personal assets are at risk if anything goes wrong. You should set up as a limited liability company. That way, only the LLC can be liable, and you will not be personally liable. To se up an LLC, you need a filing with the state, an Operating Agreement, and an Employer Identification Number from the IRS. The Operation Agreement is, in effect, a partnership agreement. I offer flat fee packages for these services. Thx. JV

Liability Waiver
Texas
Is a liability waiver binding on heirs?
I recently inherited a business from a family member and I am looking to create a liability waiver for the business. I want to make sure that the waiver is binding on the heirs of the business in the event that the business is passed down. I want to make sure that any potential liabilities are not passed on to future generations of the family.
J.R. S.
A liability waiver can indeed be binding on heirs if the language of the waiver expressly includes heirs or assigns. However, the binding nature of a waiver on heirs could be affected by several factors. Administrative regulations such as 1 TAC § 373.209 and statutes like V.T.C.A., Civil Practice & Remedies Code § 71.021 and V.T.C.A., Special Districts Code § 8502.020 stipulate conditions under which heirs can assert claims, which could potentially affect the binding nature of a waiver on heirs. Finally, the enforceability of such waivers can be influenced by whether the instrument is recorded or not, as per V.T.C.A., Property Code § 13.001. In summary, while a liability waiver can be binding on heirs, the enforceability of such waivers can be influenced by various factors, including the specific language of the waiver, the termination of the contract, administrative regulations or statutes, and whether the instrument is recorded or not. I recommend having a discussion with an attorney and have them draft the language to achieve your goal.

Independent Contractor Agreement
Texas
If you 1099 could they make you pay for lunch
Working as a Flagger work 10hrs with no breaks
J.R. S.
The short answer is yes. As an independent contractor, you bear the risk of profit and loss, employee rules regarding breaks and meals do not apply, nor does the overtime rules.
