I hope to become a silent partner in an LLC in the state of Israel or in Great Britain, a fine art gallery. Am I allowed to do that prior to emigration? I hope to use that "work status" as the owner of a business there to obtain residency as an ex-pat. I hope to not get ripped off, to... View More

Your post remains open for almost a week - some of the issues mentioned, such as emigration, alienage, visa, etc. could be things that an immigration attorney would have insight into. There's no guarantee that all questions are ultimately picked up, but you could try reposting with Immigration... View More

Title is taken by an individual or entity, not the land. If the same owner takes title to both the dominant and servient estates, then the easement is extinguished through the "merger" of the estates. I hope this helps answer your question.
He is currently married to his wife in which her and I are in very bad term due to her infidelity. How can i go about this potentially without her?

Whoever is the estate fiduciary can file the return. The refund, if any, goes to the estate. The first $50,000 of any estate (unless there is a will) goes to the spouse. Thus, you need to determine if there is anything in it for you, if an estate is worth commencing, and if a return should be... View More
Last year I created an S-corp in NY after the suggestion for tax purposes by an accountant. What I didn't realize was that I needed to be a professional corporation first, and then elect S-corp status because I am a licensed therapist. I have income, bank/credit accounts, and a loan under the... View More

I would just start over. I am not sure what you would be merging. What assets are you talking about?

No. It depends on the partnership agreement, if any, and what business is continuing.

The employer does not have to consider immigration consequences of it's restructuring. You do not have any viable case from what I can tell.
the paperwork, he verbally agreed that my employees wouldn't be let go, but he seems to be reneging on that promise now that he has all the power. Do I have any recourse?
answered on Jul 22, 2017
Probably not unless you want to argue it was fraud in the inducement and seek to rescind the merger.
I am a NY resident. I saw a FL convenience store for sale advertised on a website. I signed an LOI to buy the business via an asset sale. The sale would not include sale of any real estate.

The company was purchased by a majority investor, who came in and laid off 3/4s of the company. I am currently looking for another job but I'm not sure what I can do. My field is very small and the non-compete was for 1 year after severance.
answered on Apr 27, 2017
Many non-compete clauses are invalidated because they're too broad. Have a lawyer look at it.
