After LLC Formation, What’s the Next Step?

Aug 8, 2013 By Jason White

After you form a limited liability company, the first thing you should do is draft an operating agreement.

Is there an acceptable policy for applicant screening for criminal background checks according to the EEOC?

Jul 23, 2013 By Jason White

As discussed in the EEOC and other labor industry information below, it is possible to develop acceptable policies and procedures for using criminal background checks in the applicant screening process without violating hiring discrimination regulations. However, due to the general complexities and legal risks, we always recommend that our members consult their business labor lawyers in order identify the federal and state labor laws applicable to their employees and businesses and to develop hiring and other personnel policies and procedures that are legally compliant.

How do I search and file a patent?

Jun 14, 2013 By Jason White

A patent for a product or business process invention is the grant of a property right to the inventor. Patent protection prevents others from using a product or business process invention for commercial purposes without the permission of the inventor. As explained the information below, there are two basic types of patents – “A design patent protects only the ornamental appearance of an invention, not its utilitarian features. A utility patent would protect the way an article is used and works”.

Is there a way to switch from a C Corporation to an S corporation or LLC?

Jun 6, 2013 By Jason White

C corp to S corp conversion: An S corp is a tax status election only, so converting from a C corp to an S corp is a fairly simple process. An S corp is created by forming a subchapter C, or regular, corporation with the state and then electing subchapter S corporation tax status for the corporation by filing Federal Form 2553 with the IRS. A business can also operate for a period of time as a C corp before it elects for S corp tax status.
