entrepreneur's guide to business law: Business Legal Structures T Patterson J D, T. Patterson, 2012-11-16 What form is best for your business? Should it be one of the corporate forms or one of those that is not a corporation? This text will give you the facts and the comparisons that will help you make that choice. It should at the very least, give you the basic information so you can understand the issues that affect that choice. In addition, this writing is intended to list the basic information about US business structures every attorney and CPA wishes his or her new client already understood when first seeking help turning a worthwhile business plan into a smooth running profit making machine. The table of contents lists the types of business legal structures available to the entrepreneur for doing business in the US. Note that business structures have either a ?corporate? and ?non-corporate? legal form. Take a ?quick look? at the comparison of business types appearing in Chapter 1: ?Business Entities Compared?. It is an easy to understand summary of the major considerations in choosing a form for a business. That page, for each type, lists the owner; personal liability; taxation and management features of each type. The later chapters of this writing discuss the details and the major issues that apply to each of business legal structure listed in that first chapter. All USA businesses are legal entities authorized defined, created, and registered according to the individual state laws of the state where the business is located. Although similar, there are important differences among the states. A great deal of ?shopping? for a favorable ?home? does in fact take place because of those differences. However, there is a requirement for all businesses to ?register? in any state where it has operations. That subject is the subject of Chapter 15: ?Doing Business in Other States?. The appendix provides links to all 50 state departments Involved in forming a business. It includes all state's secretary of state business records departments; state taxation departments; security departments; and corporate and business laws. |

entrepreneur's guide to business law: Startup Law and Fundraising for Entrepreneurs and Startup Advisors Paul Swegle, 2020-07-22 Entrepreneurship can be chaotic. Some chaos drives innovation. But legal chaos rocks many startups to their foundations, dashing dreams, jeopardizing jobs and investments, creating liabilities, and slowing innovation. Paul Swegle wrote Startup Law and Fundraising for Entrepreneurs and Startup Advisors to help startups avoid these pitfalls, including the pitfall of struggling to grow a poorly funded business. This is a practical book meant to help entrepreneurs and their advisors:-build on a solid foundation, -avoid costly legal and regulatory mistakes, and -raise the money needed for stability, innovation, and operational success. Startup Law and Fundraising is for everyone interested in business, business law, and startup fundraising. Its 550 pages cover an unmatched range of startup-focused concepts, tips, traps, strategies, and best practices. Fifty-one colorful startup case studies keep things interesting.Legal, governance and regulatory hurdles are covered in the book's first ten chapters.

Startup Law and Fundraising devotes five chapters to creating and executing a fundraising plan around the principles of just-in-time finance and raising money from the right investors, in the right amounts, and on the right terms, whether from friends and family, angel investors, angel investing groups, seed funds, VCs, strategic investors, accelerators, or crowdfunding platforms.The final chapters fittingly cover the final chapters of startup life - optimizing an exit with a successful IPO or sale, or, as happens about 80% of the time, managing through insolvency and winding up.Startup Law and Fundraising provides the foundation for an entrepreneurial law and finance class at any level, including law school, MBA, undergraduate business, community college, or startup incubator. |

entrepreneur's guide to business law: Entrepreneurial Negotiation Samuel Dinnar, Lawrence Susskind, 2018-08-31 The great majority of startups fail, and most entrepreneurs who have succeeded have had to bounce back from serious mistakes. Entrepreneurs fumble key interactions because they don’t know how to handle the negotiation challenges that almost always arise. They mistakenly believe that deals are about money when they are much more complicated than that. This book presents entrepreneurship as a series of interactions between founders, partners, potential partners, investors and others at various stages of the entrepreneurial process - from seed to exit. There are plenty of authors offering ‘tips’ on how to succeed as an entrepreneur, but no one else scrutinizes the negotiation mistakes that successful entrepreneurs talk about with the authors. As Dinnar and Susskind show, learning to handle emotions, manage uncertainty, cope with technical complexity and build long-term relationships are equally or even more important. This book spotlights eight big mistakes that entrepreneurs often make and shows how most can be prevented with some forethought. It includes interviews with high-profile entrepreneurs about their own mistakes. It also covers gender biases, cultural challenges, and when to employ agents to negotiate on your behalf. Aspiring and experienced entrepreneurs should pay attention to the negotiation errors that even the most successful entrepreneurs commonly make. |

Stemler, 2021-03 This is the 18th Edition (and the 24th overall edition) of a business law text that first appeared in 1935. Throughout its more than 80 years of existence, this book has been a leader and an innovator in the fields of business law and the legal environment of business. One reason for the book's success is its clear and comprehensive treatment of the standard topics that form the traditional business law curriculum.

In 1976, this textbook was the first to inject regulatory materials into a business law textbook, defining the legal environment approach to business law. Over the years, this textbook has also pioneered by introducing materials on business ethics, corporate social responsibility, global legal issues, and the law of an increasingly digital world.

At any moment, employees at any level of the corporate hierarchy can put an entire organisation at risk by misunderstanding, ignoring, or flouting the law.
