Corporate Legal Questions and Answers

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

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.

Power of Attorney

California

Asked on Apr 24, 2025

What are the legal requirements for creating a Power of Attorney?

I am currently in the process of planning my estate and considering appointing a Power of Attorney to handle my financial and healthcare decisions in the event that I become incapacitated. However, I am unsure about the legal requirements for creating a valid Power of Attorney document. I want to ensure that I understand the necessary steps and formalities to ensure the document is legally binding and effective when needed.

Tabetha H.

Answered May 13, 2025

Power of Attorney: Essential Legal Requirements When creating a Power of Attorney (POA), you'll need to decide between a financial POA for property and financial matters, a healthcare POA for medical decisions, or both. For estate planning purposes, making your POA "durable" is crucial as this ensures it remains effective if you become incapacitated. The legal validity of your POA depends on several core requirements. You must have mental capacity when signing the document, and your execution must be voluntary without any duress or undue influence. The document needs to clearly identify both you as the principal and your chosen agent, while specifically outlining the powers you're granting. If you want the POA to continue during incapacity, a durability clause must be explicitly included. For proper execution, your signature is the primary requirement, but most states also require one or two witnesses who aren't your agent or beneficiaries. Many jurisdictions also require notarization to make the document legally binding. These formalities vary by state, so using state-specific forms is often the safest approach. Some practical considerations include naming successor agents as backups in case your primary agent becomes unavailable. You should provide copies to relevant institutions like banks or healthcare providers while keeping the originals in a secure but accessible location. Remember that you can revoke a POA in writing as long as you still have capacity. Be aware that requirements vary significantly between states, and some financial institutions may still reject valid POAs despite legal obligations to accept them. The most common mistake is failing to include a durability provision, which would cause your POA to become invalid precisely when you need it most – during incapacity.

Legal Due Diligence Checklist

New York

Asked on Jul 5, 2024

What is the importance of legal due diligence in the process of acquiring a business?

I am currently in the process of acquiring a small business and I have been advised by my financial advisor to conduct legal due diligence before finalizing the deal. I understand that legal due diligence involves reviewing the legal aspects of the target company, such as contracts, licenses, litigation history, and compliance with laws and regulations. However, I am unsure about the specific benefits and importance of conducting legal due diligence in this situation. I want to know how this process can help me identify potential risks, liabilities, and legal issues associated with the target company, and how it can protect me from future legal complications or financial losses.

Arthur S.

Answered Jul 23, 2024

Business acquisition agreements are often entered into subject and conditioned upon t he right of the Buyer to conduct a due diligence review during an agreed upon time frame ...with the obligation of the Buyer entity to finalize the deal very much contingent upon the findings of any such due diligence review. In short, the due diligence review provides the Buyer with a comfort level that the asset it is buying is what it has bargained for. A due diligence review involves a review, without limitation, of the Selling company's books and records, existing loan/debt obligations, an inventory review, a review of independent contractor/materialmen agreements, property leases and title and judgement research. Signing a purchase contract with an appropriate due diligence provision also enables the Buyer to "tie-up" asset for the agreed price during the due diligence period..
