I wanted to file legal notice to my colleague who has taken my money for the last 8 months, can anybody help me out, how much does it cost to send a legal notice?
Is this a personal matter or business? Are both parties US Citizens? How was the money given, and for what purpose? Is the litigation going to be handled in the USA or India? There are more questions to ask. However, generally speaking, a Demand Letter might be the first step in the process. Please... Read more »

It depends on the corporate structure and jurisdiction. It'll also depend on your other income. You'll most likely have additional reporting requirements personally. You're best off finding a tax expert to advise you on this.
I've had an online clothing company for over 7 years and just found out that someone else (in my city) recently started a soap company using my exact same business name. They are also selling their products on the online platform that my clothes are very popular on. Can I do anything to prevent... Read more »
Hire an attorney to review the alleged infringement and if you are correct send out a C&D letter. If that doesn't work then you sue them for infringement.
Each LLC should have at least three members and it's own insurance policy. All LLCs should be owned by a "C" corp. Anything else is not going to protect you from personal liability. You really need to retain an experienced business and contracts attorney.
That depends on a number of additional factors. An LLC is almost always better than nothing. And the S-election requires an entity to be accepted. So the LLC is essentially a foregone conclusion. The question becomes to s-elect or not.
That question becomes first an issue of eligibility.... Read more »
Partnership is a matter of contract. A minor is not necessarily binding on the contract he or she signs until he ratifies it after he is no longer minor.
Trying to form a corporation in CA with a medical director owning majority shadows but not working, a PA doing all fillers and Botox and the goal is to allow the esthetician to profit share or share hold to ensure equality.

You need to speak to a lawyer in person about this, because this can't be addressed in a simple Q&A format. The big problem here is that there are rules that govern doctors and how they can form medical partnerships. There may be a way of accomplishing your objectives, but it may need to take a...

I’m from Louisiana and I need advice on contracts/ liability forms. If I should have commercial insurance before I even think about actually starting my business.
It would be difficult for a Louisiana attorney to advise you on that, given the basic question-answer format of this board. You should think about contacting a Louisiana attorney and setting up a consultation. The forms you mention could depend on your business. Some forms are standard templates;... Read more »
When I looked at their annual report to the state it states their principal business address. However, that address is actually a Jewish temple and not affiliated with this incorporation in any way. Is it illegal for the incorporation to submit false information in order to gain a certificate of... Read more »

Why not just change the membership of the LLC to you?
about 10 years ago, my family started a charity that I describe as "Make a Wish for adults with terminal conditions/disabilities." This charity was started in my late grandfather's name. when the charity was started, it had two of my family members on the board, the rest were close family friends... Read more »
These are difficult situations when the family founders lose touch with the charity since charities are not "owned" by anyone. Also depends on whether a public charity or a private foundation. Depends on original documents, tax status, and other factors. In Pennsylvania the Attorney General's... Read more »
No labor involved. I'm a middle man delivery service.
Generally if you're not paying for the item and re-selling it you don't collect the sales tax.
You'd have to check your state, county, and city to be sure.
There is a shareholder in my company decided to start up a new company that is a total reflection of my company. However he did not disclose this company, I found out my accident in social media.
That’s a very interesting question. A partner in a partnership has a fiduciary duty that would be breached by that sort of act, but generally shareholders of a corporation
do not owe each other that sort of fiduciary duty. However, in some states the shareholders in closely held... Read more »
This is not a supplement. This is for a type recipe that calls for a mixture of different food components.

My electric provider states that I added the incorrect payment information and therefore is denying me the ability to correct my incorrect payment information, will not allow me to pay by phone, and is only giving me the option of paying in person. Do I have any legal recourse? Also there is a... Read more »
I'm sorry for your ordeal with your electric bill. The Public Service Commission of West Virginia oversees public utilities - electric, gas, water, etc. Maybe you could contact them and ask if there is anything they could do to help.

Is that a question?
Asking in terms of taxation as well as any other legal issues.
Best is a relative term. Because it's TX state tax is irrelevant. We're not concerned with the state claiming residency against the non-resident owner's will.
The next step is assessing liability and compliance. Generally that's an LLC. But it's heavily dependent on the facts and... Read more »
My business is registered with the IRS under my home address which was in Tennesee. My company is an outreach (home health) service that does not have a physical location. The services will be provided in Tennessee only at this time, however, I (the owner & founder) moved to Mississippi. Do I still... Read more »
If you are providing the services in Tennessee, then you should likely either incorporate in Tennessee or you could file in MS and also file in Tennessee as a foreign LLC transacting business in Tennessee. For a deeper discussion of the pros and cons of each option, I recommend you speak with an... Read more »

You could file a lawsuit against him to have his membership interest terminated. Consult with local counsel to review the LLC's operating documents to determine your best course of action.

You chose good categories, but what you describes sounds like trademark infringement. Try reposting in the Trademark (and maybe Intellectual Property) category(s). It would have a better chance of being seen by an attorney who is knowledgeable in this area. Good luck
