Need To Know Business Law Issues

Get lawyer help now for many of the following injury issues.

In certain situations, courts have permitted plaintiffs to pursue the possessions of the company’s owners to fulfill a judgment against the business. This defeats the personal liability defense that business owners naturally take advantage of when the business has met its legal requirements.

Some situations in which the courts may permit the plaintiff to “pierce” the defendant’s “corporate veil” include, fraud or intermingling of a business owner’s and company funds, failure to meet legal business regulations, acts in which the business can be no longer be looked as a another entity but is instead acting as the owner’s “alter ego,” and in some cases, undercapitalization.

The term "party" can represent a business, individual person, company, or corporation. A contract is one of the most typical legal transactions you will be involved in when operating a company. No matter what kind of company you own, having a comprehension of contract law is essential to executing successful company agreements that will be legally binding in the event that a disagreement comes up a later point.

Did you know?
Contracts are normally regulated and enforced by the laws in the state where the contract was drawn up and/or signed. Depending on the type of contract that was drawn up and the specific details of the contract, a contract may be enforced by one of two types of state law—either by The Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) or by The Common Law. Our lawyers will know which type of state law your contract falls under, and will draw up the contract accordingly in compliance with those laws.
