Frequently Asked Questions
What factors should I consider when choosing a business entity?
When selecting a business entity, consider liability protection, tax implications, management structure, capital raising needs, administrative requirements, and growth plans. Each entity type (corporation, LLC, partnership) offers different advantages that should align with your specific business goals and circumstances.
How do I protect my company during a merger or acquisition?
Protecting your company during M&A transactions involves conducting thorough due diligence, securing strong representations and warranties, implementing effective indemnification provisions, structuring appropriate escrow arrangements, and ensuring regulatory compliance. Our attorneys guide you through each step to safeguard your interests and maximize transaction value.
What corporate governance practices should private companies follow?
Private companies should establish clear bylaws and operating agreements, maintain accurate corporate records, hold regular board meetings, document major decisions, implement conflict of interest policies, and ensure compliance with relevant regulations. Sound governance practices reduce legal risks and create a foundation for sustainable growth and potential future transactions.
