Yes, you can operate your LLC in Idaho even if it is incorporated in Delaware. Many companies choose to incorporate in Delaware for various legal and financial benefits, but they can conduct business in other states. However, you will need to register your Delaware-incorporated LLC as a foreign... View More
An immigration lawyer recommended that I have my brother, myself, and someone else on the board so it shows majority vote against me to prove employee-employer relationship. However, I do not have another person to get involved into this.
I am fine with my brother having sole directorship... View More

Under U.S. immigration law, particularly for those on F1 STEM OPT, establishing a valid employee-employer relationship is crucial. The recommendation to have a board with a majority vote against you is aimed at demonstrating this relationship, which is a key requirement for maintaining F1 status... View More

An Idaho attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for three weeks. You could repost and add "Employment Law" as a heading. Attorneys in that category would be knowledgeable in these settings. Good luck

Probably but you might be able to sue in Idaho. You should consult an Idaho lawyer with your promissory note or contract to determine where you can file suit.
I believe they are not assessing dues properly, misappropriating funds, in breach of contract for performance, and paying a bookkeeper that is incompetent inflated and unreported compensation.

I really enjoy questions like this because I champion the rights of home owners in an HOA. An HOA is kind of like being in the mafia, but instead of being a "soldier," treated with some respect, you're treated with disrespect and ridicule. You should get a copy of the HOA's... View More

An Idaho attorney could advise best, but your question remains open for two weeks. Until you're able to arrange a meaningful consult with a local attorney, it's worth noting that nationwide, liability waivers are not a substitute for insurance. They can have limitations. You could... View More

The warranty that CANNOT be waived is the warranty that the "car will be fit for the purpose it was intended." If you bought the car "AS IS," did you ask any questions? Did you ask to have the car overnight to have a mechanic look at it? You also mentioned your question as a... View More
I gifted him stock which he sold to afford the purchase
answered on Oct 4, 2020
It sounds like personal property by gift, if it can be substantiated, and therefore, NOT community property!
The company that we as a community wanted to fire last year, got us on contract again thanks to failure to act by our Board. They have again failed to file our annual report with the Idaho Secretary of State, thus administratively dissolving our HOA.
answered on Aug 20, 2020
An HOA contract is just that, a contract. The HOA is a selected (or elected) group of home owners who act on behalf of the entire plat of homes. If you have a copy of the contract please read it carefully. It will dictate how and when a home owner(s) may dissolve the board. Unless the contract... View More

Foreign owners of an LLC report on a Form 1120 and 5472.
There are withholding requirements for foreign owners of an LLC.

LLCs are not taxed. The income flows through to the members. The foreign members will have... View More
I need to collect about $20000 owed to me by an ex-employer in Idaho. I've all the paperwork and a determination from the Department of Labor saying they need to pay. The amount is too large for me to sue in small claims though - What are my alternatives? (Suing in magistrate court vs. hiring... View More

You could use the District Court’s (Small Lawsuit) method. Idaho... View More
Hi, while my parents were trying to sell their business my dad passed away and I believe my parents business broker and the buyer took advantage of my mom while she's was grieving. She signed the papers to sell two weeks ago the new owner took over but she still hasn't been paid. The new... View More
answered on Feb 19, 2020
Possibly. Grieving is not a legal reason to avoid a contract. What you should do is gently question your mother and find out why she agreed to the terms the buyer offered? Was your mom represented by a realtor or attorney? Why weren’t you there to help her in the closing?
The money comes from a tax on Amazon. How do i get a piece of it ?
answered on Oct 24, 2019
I didn't know that private citizens were entitled to share in a tax imposed upon Amazon? What makes you think that you're entitled to take part of a tax that Amazon has to pay based upon, what? I need a LOT more information before I could give you a very good answer.

It sounds like you have a potentially strong claim for trademark infringement, so I'd recommend speaking to an attorney to get this resolved.

You're probably fine with the word engorgio, but once you include any symbols from Harry Potter, you'll run afoul of trademark laws.
3 cords of wood were bought and the seller only delivered 1 1/2. Stated that the rest would be delivered the next day. It has been 2 months and wood or money has not been returned.
answered on Oct 29, 2018
Although you don't have a writing, it appears that you have evidence that a contract was entered. It will now be an issue of forcing delivery. Please contact an attorney if you need assistance.

There are going to be a number of ethical issues here for attorneys. For example, there are rules about referral services like this as well as how the attorneys would be paid. Because there are so many issues to discuss, I'd recommend finding an attorney to review this all in detail.
answered on Apr 17, 2018
This is kind of a tough one because it really depends on the scope of the project. I imagine that advertising, registration, and consumer laws will all come into play. I'd recommend discussing this with an attorney to get a detailed answer.
I had an LLC do a $15k backyard project in October 2017, issues have risen and I am now planning to take the company to small claims.

The prior owners will be responsible, but the new ones may be as well depending on the sales agreement when they purchased the business. You may want to talk to an attorney who can review all the facts of your situation.
