Employment Contract

California

Asked on Oct 4, 2022

What is fixed term employment contract?

I have been given a contract that says 'Fixed Term Employment Contract'. How is this different than a normal employment contract? Is there anything I need to consider before signing this?

Christopher M.

Answered Oct 7, 2022

Generally a fix term employment contract differs from a genera employment contract in that it has an end date. For example, at-will contracts continue until you are fired or quit, while a fixed term contract only continues until the term expires. The main points to look at would be what they are classifying you as (employee vs contractor), the length of the term (so you know when the contract is up), and how to renew the contract or if there is an automatic renewal. It would also be good to double check the contract for termination clauses, as quitting may be more complicated under a fixed term contract. Ultimately, as with all contract matters it’s probably best to reach out to an attorney to review the document to get more specific answers to your concerns.

Joint Venture Agreement

Texas

Asked on Mar 21, 2023

Can a JV own property?

I am currently in talks with another company to form a joint venture (JV) for a real estate development project. We are planning to pool our resources together to purchase land and build properties. However, I am uncertain if a JV can legally own property or if we would need to form a separate legal entity for the ownership of the real estate. I would appreciate the guidance of a lawyer on this matter.

Jimmy V.

Answered Mar 21, 2023

A joint venture can own property. It's a type of partnership. But in a partnership, each partner is liable for anything the other partner does. You would be much better off setting up as an LLC.

LLC

California

Asked on May 20, 2023

LLC and member liability?

I am interested in forming a limited liability company (LLC) and am seeking legal advice regarding the protection of my assets and the liabilities of the LLC members. I am concerned about the potential risks associated with being a member of an LLC and would like to understand what kind of protection I can expect.

Gagandeep K.

Answered Jun 7, 2023

In general, there are benefits and drawbacks in the LLC structure so it is important to weigh these in deciding if an LLC makes the most sense for your business. Some of the benefits to the LLC structure are limiting personal liability, tax advantages, and flexibility in the structure, among others. There are also some limitations to the LLC structure such as in raising investment and limitation on liability protection. You can learn more about the LLC structure, protections, and risks here https://www.contractscounsel.com/t/g/us/llc/13. For specific questions about an LLC structure as it applies to you business, please consult an attorney.

Business Partnership Agreement

Texas

Asked on Sep 26, 2023

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.

Answered Oct 10, 2023

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

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.

I never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
