5 WAYS TO IMPROVE THE PROTECTION OF YOUR BUSINESS

05/27/2010

5. Business Succession. While companies don’t retire or die, its owners do. Without a clear plan as to how the business ownership will be passed along to family or sold to outside interests, this can lead to litigation among family members and excessive legal costs. The use of buy-sell agreements, life insurance policies and well worded operating documents can take the “bite” out of this passing of the torch.

4. Follow Corporate Formalities. One way to “pierce the corporate veil” is to not follow basic corporate formalities. Generally, all directors, managers and officers will be required to be re-elected annually. In addition, co-mingling corporate and personal funds (i.e.- paying your mortgage with corporate funds) is the number one way a JLC can circumvent the corporate form and hold the owners personally liable.

3. Make sure you are Adequately Insured. Lack of adequate insurance is a common way for a business owner to wind up having to pay for company liabilities out of pocket. Review all forms of business insurance with your legal counsel and insurance agent to make sure that the level of risk your business engages in matches your insurance levels.

2. Utilize the Right Entity. Corps do not provide the best in protection. A LLC provides a higher level of protection while retaining rights of control for the owners. In Texas, a judgement lien creditor is allowed to obtain a “charging order” which only allows the JLC to obtain profits from the LLC, not ownership/management rights. With a corp, in the JLC can take over the company to satisfy a judgment obligation.
