Happy New Year. With the new year comes the sweeping out of the old, which is where your corporate housekeeping comes into play. Many entrepreneurs think their legal work is done once they’ve incorporated or formed a limited liability company. Not so. Most states’ statutes require you to compile a written record of your major activities at least once a year (called “annual minutes”). Nina Yablok’s Bizblawg gives a nice summary of what to do. I’m not sure how to document “unanimous written consent.” Consult your business attorney, who can tell you what should be included and how it should be worded. Better yet, don’t do it yourself–delegate it. Want to learn more about Kaufman Business Law? This is the video to watch. Watch our Video

I know first-hand that running a knowledge-based service business has unique challenges. It’s so much easier when you have an advocate in your corner. Over the past 25 years, I’ve worked with thousands of New York business professionals who want a legal advisor to guide and support them as they navigate the business world.
With wide-ranging experience as a business attorney, strategist, and media authority, I bring the added power of a business lens to the legal issues my clients are facing.
And because I’ve been a business owner myself, I’ve lived through the soaring highs and devastating lows – like when my first law firm failed. So I understand what’s involved to serve great clients, detect business risks early and build a true legacy.
I can’t get those 12 years back. That’s why I have made it my mission to ensure that business professionals like you can become wise and discerning leaders, build a solid business, and live your best life.
