LLCs:
The limited liability company ("LLC") is the most popular type of business entity in South Carolina. A LLC combines asset and liability protection for its members while allowing the flexibility in choosing the tax structure for the company.
There is much more to forming a South Carolina LLC than simply filing the Articles of Organization with the Secretary of State. Business owners need to consult with an attorney to understand what steps must be taken to prevent "piercing the corporate veil" that can destroy any personal liability protection created when a LLC is formed. Additionally, Operating Agreements are often necessary to handle the governance of the LLC.
Estate Planning:
There are four essential documents that everyone should have: a Will, a Durable Power of Attorney, Healthcare Power of Attorney, and a Living Will. A Will is designed to control the distribution of your assets at death to family members and loved ones. A Durable Power of Attorney is a document that appoints an attorney in fact to act on your behalf in making business and financial decisions in the event of your incompetence. A Healthcare Power of Attorney allows a person you appoint to make medical decisions for you in the event you are unable to do so for yourself, such as in the event you are in a coma or permanently unconscious. A Living Will details how you would like your medical treatment handled for situations where you are no longer able to communicate and express informed consent.
Contract Preparation and Review:
Contracts are the foundation of commerce. They define relationships and shape expectations and ensure that a meeting of the minds occurs before performance obligations begin. Every contract should be reviewed by an attorney prior to signing and Jason T. Matthews is committed to protecting your interests.
